There’s an extender version of the MX-30 coming this year - it is powered by a 17.5 kWh battery and an electric motor. That small battery can be charged by the 0.8 litre Wankel Rotary “Extender” Engine (Euro 6 spec no doubt) - and the Rotary engine DOES NOT power the wheels (or drivetrain directly). It works exclusively as a generator - charging the battery - which in turn sends its electrical power to the electric motors which DO power the wheels. I’d go for the Mazda MX-30 as I can totally live with the 35.5kWh battery at my 60+ age (with retirement looming). I presently do a 34 mile round trip commute daily - this car is perfect for me. I’d take a train to Scotland. Or a plane. I’m not doing up to 100 miles driving anywhere in one day anymore. The MX-30 was designed for the likes of me! It certainly has presence on the road and a premium interior loaded with every standard and extra technology option you might want. No self driving - that’s fine - I don’t trust that technology yet - and I don’t want a Tesla clone.

Of this three, I'd take the Fiat - it's the only one I consider desirable. The Mini's fine but it's no longer cool, nor interesting, nor particularly stylish nowadays. It's a pop song that's been over-played. With those doors and rear seats, the Mazda isn't actually practical, and what is the point of the car? These "compact SUVs" wind me up: it's an off-roader that doesn't go off-road; it's big but not really; it's small but not really; it's fuel efficient but not really. And how dull would you be to find it desirable? Just pick a thing and be good at it! I'm not sure about prices, but if I were going for the practical argument I'd much rather have either that new MG estate car (which is probably more than 25,000), or one of the excellent looking hatchbacks from VW, Skoda, or Renault. And if those are cheaper than this range, then for argument's sake, I'd just spec one up to 25K! ;-)

Mx-30 not really an off-roader and it’s not much bigger than a Golf. Just taller. Weird that people like SUVs more though - usually put down to people liking a ‘command’ driving position. I don’t get having a back door if you have to put the seats forward to use ‘em though. Plus, that range in winter is going to be sketchy!

"compact SUV" nowadays is a synonym for "Jacked up hatchback". Back in the 90s, if you said "compact SUV", I'd think that you were talking about about the 3 door Chevy Blazer or something like that. I'd pick the 500e as well. Also, Fiat will probably launch their 500XL fairly soon, so that could be an interesting "compact SUV" (I just know they'll call it that or a "crossover") compared to stuff like the Model Y (way too expensive, makes sense in the US with the supercharger network) and the MX-30 (kind of a missed opportunity if you ask me).

Also Fiat is probably going to release the new 500XL next year. If that thing comes out with 400km of range or more, that could be a big hit for them, especially if they don't cock up the design too much like they did with the original 500L.

Although Mazda claim 124 miles, this winter(which hasn’t been harsh by any standard), range on ours at 100% charge is 108 miles. This also rapidly disappears on the road. Fast charging also isn’t…….. unless your at less than 20% capacity. Apart from the range though, it’s a great car and a really nice place to be. A 200 mile range mx30 would be perfect

So if range was unimportant then I'd take the Mazda. However, in our single car family, where both of us use the car to commute daily and travel 150-160 miles a week minimum, no charging opportunity at home or work, at this time of year (winter) I don't think any of these three would work for us! Not to mention we need a practical family car too. MG 5 looks closer to what we would need to be honest.

The Mazda is LITERALLY the least they could do. The least effort, the least interest, the least range. It is the poster boy for compliance motoring - made because they had to not because they wanted to. Which could be said about the 500 too, to be fair, but there's little doubt that Fiat did an incredible job and actually TRIED to make it the best they could. Which is why it would be my pick. The mini? It's a Mini. But Electric. It does what it says on the tin but it doesn't move me.

If I was on the filming with you and offered any of the 3 for a few days, to get back home to the NW I would be charging at 100 mile intervals as bit wintery now. Mini seems most comfortable to plan a route using 50kw Instavolt charging. If you'd tested cheapest 500e would have taken that. Small battery means very quick charge 20-80% but might fit in with a quick lunch. And £5k in my pocket.

Instead looking at the percentage, we should focus on how much range you can get in certain amount of time. 42 kWh battery can be charged at 85 kW, compared to 50 kW with smaller battery 500e. Also bigger battery has tendency degrading less in time.

Do not like SUVs and the MX30 range is rubbish in 2020. And its not just about range, speed of charge can be a factor, especially if you make the occasional longer journey. I've used a Zoe for 18 months and frequently go to Wiltshire and the London airports from Torquay. The 500 will make the trip to London so much quicker than the other two, because of the range and the faster charging. And while the 500 is the smallest you did forget to mention the 3+1 door option on the hatch version, giving you the suicide rear door of the MX30 and Mini Clubman. Handy if you have young children in booster seats or for putting big items in the back. 11kW AC is very useful on the 500 too. And could get you moving again quickly if the DC chargers are in use.

@@davemyers77 Having commuted 55-60 miles in an EV. I would say it is marginal. All EVs have that initial launch and always having max power at the ready that gets you off the lights quicker, lets you be first to any gap in the traffic. The size of the Mini and 500 are an advantage. Unless your route is all dual carriageway or motorway, the extra power of the Mini will not be that great over the other 2. The Zoe was 110ps and I used to just pick an empty lane at roundabouts, traffic lights and always got to 40mph first. You can't drive to work like its a touring car race, but that initial burst of torque gets you in front every time.

The Mini on the other hand has the handling and the looks that doesn't indicate you driving an EV and can still in the acceleration stakes make the combustion engines feel like they need more. Could we just say, the Mini wins this test, and the Mazda comes 10th. Yes, I'm taking each spec level and adding a few others.

Good comparo, hard to say who actually came out on top, as they all have different styles and range. The Mazda looks like a contender, in spite of my unrequited love of the Fiat. The Mini IMO is simply overpriced.

Look at that, they got the MX-30 from the Mazda PR videos. Does it have a sunroof though? I bought the "top model" version in my location, but it does not have a sunroof. Disappointed! You're also glossing over the charging times a lot, which seems to be at odds with what your channel is about. You don't charge any of these cars in about 30 minutes on a fast charger.

With a 0-62mph difference of 1 and a bit seconds you would have to go from 0-62 over 200,000 times to have saved you 3 days of time. I think I’ll have that fiat instead. Which has the same 0-60 time as the mk1 grid and a similar amount of horsepower.

The Mazda is going to look a right mess when somebody closes the front door first, then the back. Bound to happen. Its also going to be too big as a second car and for people tempted go electric. Tempted by the Fiat when it arrives.

Still, great review even though none of the cars are of any relevance to our market, India, where there’s not even plan for launching any of them. Mazda don’t even exist here.

@@Electrifyingcom : Oh wow!! Thanks for the reply. Now I can fire as many questions at you as many you can take interest in 🤔. Ready? Haha...don’t worry, I have nothing to ask here. Reading other comments and your replies here. People really are curios and interested in electrification (of automobiles). Looks positive future ahead. Oh! But I’d really like you to make a video on your opinion on UK’s plan to completely stop the sale of cars fuelled by gas and diesel by 2030 (correct me if the year is wrong) in the favour of pure electrification. Do let us know what the people in UK think over this government’s decision. Are people really eagerly looking forward to switching their car to electric? Do you have attractive government subsidies on electric cars? What would push a person to switch to an electric car - attractive subsidy or the need for clean environment? Still, the fact the transition is actually happening within a given time frame, is like a dream come true. And it’s very encouraging to other markets as well.

It’s mixed reactions here, people are apprehensive but resigned to it I think. We have subsidies of £3,000 on a new electric car, it will be interesting to see if this stays. Thanks again! Ginny

Thank goddess I have watched a lot of reviews on each of these cars. These people provided zero information about them. Such has interior quality being very poor on the fiat and high end on the Mazda. What about driving experience? All we got was a short one liner about the mini. I was so happy to see these 3 cars go head to head but was very let down on content

Got level 2 in racing green on order. It does take a lot of thinking 🤔 about the various pros and cons. The HYUNDAI KONA came a close second because of its massive range, but I couldn't see myself in such an ugly vehicle for the next few years. And it just wasn't as much FUN to drive. The mini is a giggle and faster than my current Seat Leon FR DSG 2.0Tdi. I'm getting a charging point installed at home and for the 2 or 3 occasions during the year I go over range I'll plan the journey and relax ...and think of all the extra pandas 🐼 🙄 that will be born. Can't wait 😁😁😁😉
