Switching from petrol to electric can still feel daunting, but one practical path is buying an EV version of a car you already know. The UK market now has more than 160 EV models, and the article pairs several of Britain’s most popular petrol or hybrid cars with close electric equivalents. It highlights the Vauxhall Corsa Electric, which mirrors the petrol Corsa’s layout and interior and offers up to 265 miles of range, with prices starting from £26,780. The Peugeot e-2008 targets compact-SUV buyers with up to 248 miles and a 20-80% recharge time of as little as 27 minutes. Other matches include the Fiat 500e.
