Electric Vehicle Road Test

If you’re considering the purchase of an Electric Vehicle (EV), this is a story that you MUST see.

I’m Bob Aldons from Car Business and The Car Guy. The place where new car buyers save serious money (thousands) on the purchase of their next new car AND get honest opinions on the cars that I review. Hit me up on either website if you have questions – I’ve got answers.  (Just click on the link). This story is about Electric Vehicles and is well worth the read

The Wall Street Journal equipped eight of its journalists with an Electric Vehicle. There were located in four countries across the world with seven different brands for three consecutive weeks

Electric Vehicle Road Test - Wall Street Journal

There was a wide range of vehicles used for the test. Most of them are available in Australia, but the RRP prices (excluding on-road costs) are a lot more here than in the USA, Japan and China. And charging infrastructure caused a few issues for the drivers as did temperatures in the countries that they were testing.

The video goes for around 20 minutes, but potential EV buyers need to see it

Hyundai Kona                                                                    $59,990

Nissan Leaf                                                                        $49,990

Tesla Model 3                                                                    $67,900

Jaguar I-Pace                                                                     $124,000

Mercedes Benz EQC                                                       $137,900             

Buick Velite 6                                                                     N/A

Chevrolet Bolt                                                                   N/A

Public chargers are notoriously slow

From my perspective, in the current market, an Electric Vehicle should be considered as a suburban vehicle. If you’re planning to use your car as a highway vehicle, then the charging infrastructure has to be called into question.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my new website thecarguy.com.au!

I know that there’s a lot of websites that offer car reviews, car road tests, opinions on various cars and the like. What makes this site different is that I’m not going to bore you with technical information about the various cars that I review.

I’ve been in the car business for over 39 years. I’ve read the motoring magazines cover to cover. I’ve read the online reviews until my eyes were square. Everywhere that I go, I find motoring journalists talking about car speeds – 0 – 100 km per hour, standing ¼ times, the inclination of this and that at 150klm per hour on a 12.5% gradient curve, in rainy weather – and other stuff that bores me no end.

thecarguy.com.au is taking a different path on the journey to helping you purchase a new car. I’ll do my best to advise you on what I consider to be the most important information when it comes to that major decision to purchase a car. Interior room, features of the car, fuel economy, safety, service prices, resale and lots more. I’ll tell you what I like about a particular car and as importantly, what I don’t like, to find at least to be less than I think a car should have. .

And I’ll ask for your opinion. Take some pics of what you’re driving and tell me and our audience what you particularly like or dislike about your car. Because besides prospective new car buyers, there’s a lot of people who’ll read your comments as used car buyers.

So, jump on board, strap yourself in and let’s start out on the journey with The Car Guy.
