I have a seen a few BMW i4 out in the wild and have to admit, they look great! When people think “Go Electric!” the BMW i4 is definitely not a common consideration.

The Fiat 500e is a lot packed into a small chassis and received a lot of praise from the press considering it’s price point.

Lucid Air is on the list, well because it’s a Lucid Air - an ultimate choice for performance, luxury and style.
VIDEO REVIEW.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N competes and often wins when put up against top performance vehicles that all cost well over $100K. The Ioniq 5 N should definitely be considered when looking for a performance EV.

The Kia EV9 has been happily welcomed to the EV world and they look great!

Lastly the Mazda CX-70 - again, not an option people think of when it comes to EVs.

EVeryone wants more chargers, but “‘Mo chargers, ‘Mo problems”. As more chargers get installed across the country, more chargers will be targeted for copper theft and other vandalism. ChargePoint is combating vanadlism via cut-resistant cables and a horn/strobe alarm system to offer real-time protection.

EV sales continue to grow across the country and with 2025 full of affordable EV expectations, let’s hope that 2025 is the year of the EV. There are so many things up in the air around policy, charger installs and available models in Canada.

We will have a new Prime Minister, there will be municipal and provincial elections - all will effect EV adoption (negatively or positively) and Canada’s ability to meet their zero emission targets.

“ASS gets man out of trouble.” would’ve been a funnier yet inappropriate title for this video. Aside from making people exercise less and enabling laziness the Assisted Smart Summon does prove useful in this situation.
