What electric car for £30k do you recommend?

What is a recommended EV for up to £30k? My annual mileage is just under 10k. If a used car, can I trust a used battery?

A nearly-new Kia Niro EV would be a good purchase. It's one of the best electric cars on the market, while it comes with a seven-year warranty (including the battery) which is useful if you're planning to keep it long-term. If you'd prefer something bigger, you might find a used Hyundai Ioniq 5 within budget. Alternatively, the MG 4 EV represents excellent value for money.
