Abarth 500e review - the noisy EV 

They’re smoking something really potent, it’s ridiculous the ICE Abarth 500 couldn’t live on when less fuel efficient Stellantis vehicles will.

These EV's are for city dwellers going back & forth to their jobs. not made for the long haul or to last.

Going backwards compared to what? That phrase has absolutely no meaning. It's all in your head.

Get with the times grandma.

@@tommanley2924they are here to stay, stop acting like any relevant number of people hauls stuff with their car regularly

Is that why the F-150EV like so many others is NOT selling, if they were so great they should sell themselves, that's how you up the bar. Making them better, these are not better. Get then wet with a little salt water and they will self consume, just one example. Battery's don't last but a few years. EV's are now just consumables one disposes of after use..@@MaticTheProto

Keep convincing yourself if you must, but EVs are an environmental disaster... are falling like a stone in value and getting much more costly to insure...

@@simonc2929 environmental disaster? Like lead in petrol?

regular commuter cars are better as EVs, electric sports cars are missing many sensations that make a performance car fun

@@protocetid I have driven fast cars since I passed my test in 1986. And I mean really good fast cars. The best car I have ever had is the one o have now. BMW i4.

​@@raftonpounder6696 Not everyone derives their enjoyment of a sports car solely from the speed or the luxury. In fact some (now) slow sports cars from days past are sometimes preferred over the jaw dropping acceleration of an EV (or even faster ICE automobiles) and their market value reflects that. The smell of gasoline, a high revving engine, a great feeling manual shifter, mind reading steering, the sound of the exhaust, hydraulic steering that communicates road conditions, all gone in EVs. People miss the vroom vroom so much that car makers are pumping fake noise into electric cars, and the batteries always mean additional weight that doesn't feel good on a twisty road. The feel of driving can be so important, people can seek completely analog cars. Car enthusiasts have likened newer computer assisted vehicles to driving in a video game.

I’ll take you a run on the back roads in my BMW i4. Don’t wear white trousers.

Only that guy says it. But mentally challenged wastes of air like you don’t care, you just want to hate don’t you? :)

Old hat.

EV's were around in the late 1800's, early 1900's, they didn't have it then and they don't have what it takes today.@@raftonpounder6696

There won't be any soon, and there won't be any fuel to fill them with!

How?@@johnodell5310

Yeah. I’ll take you a run in my i4. You’ll not be thinking about clown music after that.

You would like that in your car too wouldn’t you?

@@JoeyDNetsfan I’d like you in it. Don’t wear your white trousers.

it’s an EV, there’s less parts that can break
