Cheap to buy; cheap to run. Why I love the Ford Puma Gen-E (but can I convince my wife?)  @MrEV

The Ford Puma Gen-E surprised me. In this review, I test its efficiency, practicality, charging, driving experience and value for money to find out whether it's one of the best-value electric cars you can buy.

📋 In this review

• My full review of the Ford Puma Gen-E
• Design, practicality and boot space
• Real-world efficiency and range
• Charging speed and battery size
• Interior quality and technology
• Driving impressions
• How it compares with rival EVs
• Flaviana and Aurelia's verdicts
• Whether it's worth buying

Why is it so good? It's not a dedicated EV platform — it's literally a petrol Puma with a battery underneath. Yet it achieves 6.2 miles per kWh efficiency and costs just £26,245 with the government grant. Is this the most practical value EV on the market?

In this video, I take you through the design, the genuinely enormous boot (523L, expandable to 1,283L), efficiency testing, and whether it stacks up against rivals. Plus: my wife finally gives her verdict on why this is her last car review... 😄
