Can budget EVs really handle a proper road trip?!
Join Robert Llewellyn, Imogen Bhogal, and Jack Scarlett as they take three of the UK’s most affordable electric cars on a 186-mile journey across Wales – from Llandudno to Cardiff down the famous A470.
The contenders!
- Citroën e-C3: Comfort king with one big charging flaw
- BYD Dolphin Surf: Smooth, refined… but a bit quirky
- Leapmotor T03: Shockingly basic, surprisingly capable
From rural roads, a true “charging desert,” confusing climate controls and slow charging speeds, this road trip uncovers what these EVs are really like to live with. Enjoy!
