So far, I think the Mach-E is OK, but can't quite see me wanting to buy one (or indeed the wife, who's car it would "be") and the only cars that seem to fit the "not too expensive or too small" categories are:
- VW ID4
- Nissan Ariya
And that's about it at the moment, or any others that appear on the horizon, so it may well end up being a PHEV as there's way more options and for most part you get the daily running costs - not sure how many PHEVs you get there though. I think it's daft that the Model 3 isn't a proper hatch, which is a let down for a family car, perhaps as it would take sales from the Model S. Plus I echo the sentiments that I just feel uninspired despite their lead in the tech field. I'd quite like a Taycan or the new E-Tron GT and hopefully they depreciate enough that they are withing budget quite quickly.

I'm surprised you're not looking into Rivian. My buddy who was in the same boat (86 > Giulia) put pre-order for Rivian and he can't wait to get a hand on it.
Top 3 EV I'm looking at are Volvo XC40 Rechage, Ford Mustang Mach-E & Nissan Ariya now. Thought about used Audi e-Tron... but used price of e-Tron, I can get new Mach-E or Recharge.
