Verdict
These are two of the best electric cars on sale today. The i3 continues to wow with its superb cabin, while its strong performance and real-world range also give it plenty of appeal.
The e-Golf wins, though. It might be slightly more expensive to own, but it’s considerably more practical, has a more comfortable ride, is better to drive and comes with more standard equipment. Considering all that, we think it’s just worth the extra.
Their overall review covers points they are 'for' and 'against' for each vehicle:
Volkswagen e-Golf
For Great to drive; well equipped; spacious inside
Against Ride isn’t as good as standard Golf’s; not as quick as the i3
Verdict The most convincing electric car yet
BMW i3
For Impressive performance; stunning cabin; brilliant infotainment system
Against Choppy ride; nervous handling; small boot
Verdict Hugely desirable, but the e-Golf makes more sense
