Video Description
The 2025 Cars.co.za Awards, sponsored by Absa, are in full swing! 39 finalists have been selected and thoroughly tested by our 20 judges. Represented in 13 categories across a wide spectrum of pricing and segments, the Cars.co.za Awards are by far the most comprehensive car awards in South Africa. In this video, motoring journalist David Taylor, one of our judges, takes on the Electric Car Category to decide his winner, ahead of the official announcement in February 2025. If you're wanting to change to the electric car lifestyle, we have three finalists to choose from: the defending champion BMW iX1, the Mini Countryman SE and the Volvo EX30. In this video, Dave looks at the performance and efficiency, the pricing, interior features and practicality, before sharing his choice for segment honours. 0:00 - Intro 1:15 - Price 2:12 - BMW iX1 Power and Torque 2:37 - BMW iX1 0-100kph 3:10 - Driving the BMW iX1 6:10 - BMW iX1 Interior 8:06 - MINI Countryman Power and Torque 8:50 - MINI Countryman 0-100kph 9:15 - Driving the MINI Countryman 12:45 - MINI Countryman Interior 14:52 - Volvo EX30 Power and Torque 15:00 - Volvo EX30 0-100kph 15:15 - Driving the Volvo EX30 19:10 - Volvo EX30 Interior 21:54 - Boot Space 23:55 - Conclusion Visit Cars.co.za at: https://www.cars.co.za Sell your car on Cars.co.za: https://www.cars.co.za/sell-car/ Follow Cars.co.za on the socials: https://www.twitter.com/CarsSouthAfrica https://www.facebook.com/CarsSA https://www.instagram.com/CarsSouthAfrica https://www.tiktok.com/@carssouthafrica Follow SentiMETAL on the socials: https://instagram.com/sentimetal_productions https://www.facebook.com/SentiMETALProductions Download the Cars.co.za App here: Apple https://apps.apple.com/za/app/cars-co-za/id626789511 Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mushroomcloud.cars&hl=en_ZA&gl=US Huawei App Gallery https://appgallery.huawei.com/#/app/C100880073
