Both the Alpine A290 and Abarth 600e are fun cars - the first EVs to be properly engaging to drive. Despite the list price being significantly higher (but still below the critical £40k!), the Abarth is MUCH cheaper to lease... which makes the choice something of a no brainer in terms of value for money.

It delivers practical, reliable transport with a comfy ride and sensible features — not the flashiest cabin, but great for buyers who prefer substance over sparkle.
