New investigation reveals the most flawed electric cars

Just because you change 'fuel' doesn't mean you get rid of Monday cars. That reveals a new test from British WhatCar.

They do it every year. In other words, it exhibits the worst, most flawed cars on the market. In fairness, it must be said that WhatCar also looks at the most flawless cars.

The reality is, however, that you do not necessarily get rid of Monday cars simply by switching 'fuel' from diesel or petrol to electricity.

The cars in WhatCar's investigation are up to five years old, and this time data was obtained from as many as 178 models and 21,000 car owners.

The media writes that themselves.

Specifically, the survey is based on the car owners' answers to a series of questions that required the car owners to look back two years.

The car owners have then answered what they have spent on repairs, faults and downtime at workshops over the course of the period.

Based on this information, WhatCar spits out a list of the best – and not least the worst cars. This time the electric cars are also included.

The scale used by the British goes from 0 to 100 percent, where 100 percent is as flawless as it can possibly be.

The most flawed electric cars:
Porsche Taycan (from year 2019 onwards). Reliability index: 66.5 percent.
Hyundai Ioniq Electric (year 2016-2022). Index: 75.5 per cent.
MG4 (from year 2022). Index: 76.1 per cent.
Kia EV6 (from year 2021). Index: 83.4 per cent.
Tesla Model S (year 2014-2022). Index: 83.9 per cent.
Opel Corsa-e (from year 2019). Index: 87.4 per cent.
Renault Zoe (from year 2019). Index: 89.2 per cent.
VW e-Up (from year 2020). Index: 90.9 per cent.
BMW i3 (year 2013-2022). Index: 91.1 per cent.
Hyundai Kona Electric (from year 2018). Index: 91.1 per cent.

The entire investigation can be read here . But we are probably not revealing too much by saying that it is an English car – believe it or not – that performs best in tests.
