A quick comparison of all the current Category A electric models in Singapore

May is shaping up to be quite special - and no, not just because it's giving us the highest monthly concentration of public holidays for all of 2022. For the first bidding round of the month, a few old names were serendipitously switched over to Category A.

Let the Tesla versus Polestar debate cool for a few moments. Here, we're getting into all five of the purportedly mass market EV models you can now buy in Singapore, and investigating how they stack up against each other.As mentioned, five fully electric models now reside under the wings of Category A. These include two models from Hyundai - the Kona Electric and IONIQ Electric - Nissan's internationally best-selling Leaf, as well as the MG ZS Electric, a compact SUV.

Range for the MPV is declared as 522km under WLTP-cycle testing, and while real-world figures will always fall short, our time with the car indicated that it was more than capable of high-400 territory.On the other hand, you'll notice that we've added some parentheses for this portion because we're a bit hesitant to shame the Hyundai Kona Electric.

Charging via an AC outlet - for instance, a power rating you'll often see is 7.4kW - stretches a full recharge out from anywhere between two to six hours, which coheres more with charging when you've gone home for the day. Arguably still very easy to slip into a day out at a mall, but if you're in a hurry.. well. The easy counter-argument to this, of course, is that covering more distance on a single charge means fewer recharging seshes as well.

Whether or not that's a good or bad thing is really up to whoever's driving; EVs are supposed to be for the efficiency-oriented folks after all. Still, there's no denying that this offers the least fun among its peers. The MG ZS Electric's largest selling point, arguably, has always been its value and practicality; it was already among the most accessible EVs pre-transfer to Cat A.

If we focus on the bigger picture, however, these numbers already represent significant five-figure drops from just a month ago.
