Any guesses? 😉

Last week, while in Amsterdan for the live show, we visited @welectricnl to test out an assortment of electric micro-mobility goodies. Here’s a very fluffy-haired @jackscarlett1 with a tour of some of his personal favourites. We can’t wait to see more stuff like this on UK roads!
Lots to unpack here 👀
Wow! Day 1 has been incredible.
We can't wait to do it all again tomorrow, and the next day!
Fancy joining us?
Our two wheel test track at #Fullychargedliveeurope is the perfect place to try a range of electric bikes, scooters and mopeds for yourself!

Jack heads to the EV capital of the world to find out about Noway’s electric car culture ⚡️
With over 80% of new cars sold being pure EVs, Norway is miles ahead of the rest of the world as far as EV uptake goes.
So how has this been achieved? What can the rest of the world learn? And most importantly why does @jackscarlett1 keep singing that song from ‘80s synth band A-Ha! 🙄

A little BTS from today’s shoot in the glorious West Country sunshine, in the bonkers Ford Mustang Mach-E GT. Is this range-topping performance EV worth the extra cash over the standard car? Answers coming soon to the main channel. In the meantime, any guesses as to what Jack is saying in that first pic? 😂 (P.S swipe left for a very treat we spotted at a charger today 🤤)

Say hello to the new Smart #1! The Smart brand quietly transitioned into an EV-only manufacturer a few years back and while we’ve always had a soft spot for their zippy compact cars, low range and relatively high prices have stifled their success. This new car looks to offer something a little different: built onto bespoke EV architecture provided by new backers Geely, this compact crossover boasts up to 273 miles from its 66kwh battery, along with a startling 268bhp from its single rear motor. Cheaper, smaller battery versions will no doubt follow, and cabin space should be ample thanks to that skateboard chassis.
Initial thoughts on the #1? Tell us down below!
It’s happening, people. IT’S HAPPENING.
Some BTS from yesterday’s shoot in the Welsh hills with @electricclassiccars. Video coming to the main channel soon featuring Bobby, Jack, two gorgeous Tesla-powered Defenders, lots of mud and a dog named Spud.
This week, our resident car nerd @jackscarlett1 has swapped four wheels for two. He’s been zipping around London on the Ultralight: an outrageously cool urban e-bike from Chicago-based Zooz, ahead of its appearance at Fully Charged Live next month.
Noteworthy features include chunky, all-conquering tyres, a BMX-inspired stainless steel frame and a selection of three motors, ranging from 250W all the way up to 1100W. It certainly isn’t the most practical e-bike out there, or the most friendly to taller riders, but what it lacks in practicality it more than makes up for in sheer coolness.
Fancy trying it out yourself? Come to Fully Charged Live and look for the @rideandglide_ stand at our micro-mobility test track. This and many other weird and wonderful e-rides will be available for demo rides!
NEWSFLASH ⚡AUDI preview #AllElectric ESTATE - the A6 Avant E-Tron
SUVs are all the rage at the moment and have been for a long time now - but are they a sensible choice in the electric age? Doesn’t it make sense to start moving away from needlessly tall, large vehicles in favour of sleeker, more slippery and aerodynamic body shapes?
Audi certainly seems to think so: this is the new A6 Avant E-tron Concept and it’s something we don’t see very often these days: an estate car.
The A6 is the first Audi to utilise the new PPE platform, designed in conjunction with Porsche, which will underpin the next generation of bespoke Audi EVs. Stats are few and far between for now but Audi promises 270Kw charging and up to 435 miles of WLTP range from a 100kwh battery.
The question is, which electric estate car would you have: this, a Taycan Sport Turismo, or an MG5? 🤔
NEWSFLASH⚡VW finally UNVEILS ID.BUZZ MPV & Cargo VAN in FULL
•V2G Capabilities (Bi-Directional Charging)
•77 kWh battery (Official RANGE not yet revealed)
•Various TWO-TONE paint options
•Capable of Level 4 Autonomous Driving
We've seen the camo, we've driven the prototypes:
What are your thoughts on the ID.BUZZ now ALL has been revealed? 🤔
We expect both the carrier & cargo versions to sell in massive numbers, it's just a shame we have to wait a little longer for the Camper!

This week we’re in Norway filming a couple of very, very exciting episodes - and we couldn’t resist the opportunity to spend some time with a car (and indeed car brand) that we don’t have access to in the UK: the ES8 by Nio. So tell us: what would you like to know about this big, luxury wafter? #Nionorge
