Chinese electric vehicle models in 2023: which one to choose?

First of all, it's important to determine which criteria are most important to you in your search for an electric car. In fact, the characteristics you need to take into account when choosing your electric vehicle are determined by the nature of your use and your journeys.

So, if you're a long-distance commuter, it's best to opt for an electric car with a long range, so you won't be limited in your travels.

On the other hand, if you're looking to buy an electric vehicle exclusively for short city journeys, the vehicle's range may not be your priority, and you'll be more likely to choose a vehicle based on its design, practicality and comfort for city driving.


At Beev, we're convinced that the current range of electric cars will enable you to find the right vehicle for your needs.
