- What makes a good EV for commuting?
- Cost per kilometre and enough range that you charge on your own schedule rather than the road's. A commuter rarely needs 500 km — it needs a number comfortably above your round trip, and a running cost that beats the petrol it replaces.
- How is this cars ranking decided?
- By the vehicle's own specifications, scored for this one job and recomputed whenever those specifications change. It is not an editorial pick, and nobody can pay to appear here.
