I Try Out A New Electric Car - Taking My Mum Shopping In A KIA EV6

Today I have been entrusted with my partners new electric company car, I've never driven electric before!
My lovely parents wanted to buy me an air fryer after finding out I am coeliac so mum and I hit the kitchen gadgets in Currys and well it would have been rude not to look round a few other shops too.

[@garethroberts68]

The misses has been nagging me for ages about them Ninja air fryers. Only problem I have is our cubbyhole now resembles a curry's warehouse. Loads of gadgets and gizmos that she swore were a good investment. 🤣🤣 But yeah, great vid Beck.

[@BeckandBeyond]

Haha what is it with Kitchen gadgets!?? Get some sold on Ebay and make room for the airfryer you won't be disappointed! X

[@elizabethdunn2992]

Lovely shopping trip with Mum you can’t beat it ❤

How times change. You were once an air flyer and now you are an air fryer ! 😊

[@BeckandBeyond]

That has just made me howl!! Brilliant!! X

Hang on....asking your dad to read instructions!!!! It's the 1st thing they chuck into fireplace! My Christmas train set never ran for 2 years! Traumatised I am, traumatised! LOL! Great Vlog love!

Becky, I've never driven an electric car and am concerned that you find the instruments and controls intimidating, and you're a pilot 😂

How do Becky... I love your mum!!!! she's fabulous ! I love how she gently brushed aside your driving skills and being tidy. Never try to bluff your subscribers when Mum's around LOL. I think I know who your James Takes after for sure😆 Bimey, how dear were those air fryers. Mine was forty quid off amazon🤣 You chose right getting the Philips air fryer. By the number of ninja's I'm seeing for sale on FB market it looks like folk get rid of them a lot lol. A great vlog and you and your fab Mum make a great partnership on screen. Best regards- Kenny

[@BeckandBeyond]

Thankyou Kenny, my mum is a class act very dry sense of humour as you say James takes after her!! The Philips is great to far definitely happy with my choice. X

Good choice of Air Fryer 👏 Loving your mothers contribution makes a good sidekick 👍

How lovely are your Mom and Dad. Nice to see them both on the vlog. I have an air fryer, but only a bog standard one drawer Asda home one, Thought I would try it out before possibly getting a bigger one.

[@BeckandBeyond]

To be honest, my parents have had a basic single drawer one for some time which I tested 1st. Thankyou I do have brilliant parents x

[@SusanTurner-yo9lf]

Lovely mum and daughter day out, very envious as I live 200 miles from my mum and dad. Never thought about the air con in an electric car, that would be a deal breaker for me, would need it on most of the time so wouldn't be able to travel very far. Hope the air fryer helps with your coeliac ❤

Hi Becky, enjoyed your vlog ,a lovely day with your mum 😊 Electric car not for me ,would never have one for many reasons 😮 Love Teacakes,yummy 😋 Hope your new diet is going well for you 😊 thanks ❤

[@BeckandBeyond]

Thankyou I'm getting there with the diet! There are quite a few restrictions with the EVs I'm terrible at filling up my car with petrol so would probably run out of power constantly!!

[@deka2242]

Great video Becky not a great fan of electric cars, but i guess we will all be driving them eventually.

[@BeckandBeyond]

Possibly, I'm still sceptical about them my other half have a company who supplies EV safety equipment and there are issues with them which might hinder their popularity! X

[@davejenkins6896]

I did like the EV but Im to old & set in my ways to change to something new but it was so luxurious & obviously quiet it looked great I like Kia's owned one about 5 years - one of my million jobs was in retail we had to approach customers but personally I dont appreciate it Id rather browse & take my time although I do go OTT checking reviews etc online not sure if I fancy an air fryer I know theyre popular but we use a pressure cooker had different varieties over nearly 50 years of married life....good luck with the coeliac diet

[@BeckandBeyond]

I with you I like to browse and not be bothered by sales staff we can ask if we need help! it's a very American approach but us Brits are quote different! X

[@waynestockton8953]

I can't believe you have only just got an air fryer you must be the last person in the country to get one. 🎉🎉🎉

I currently drive a Nissan which was bought back in 2010 , automatic, and done 60000 miles, but considering renewing a newer car in 5 or 6 years time when it gets past 20 years old and it's petrol. But not sure if electrical care are reliable, safe, and easy to charge the infrastructure needs to improve and it they are reliable with maintenance will see how it goes, but will need to drive one to see what it's like 😂👍

[@BeckandBeyond]

There is still a long way to go with regards to the infrastructure! But plenty of incentives to get one with all the savings there are. X

Well done Becky. I guess the shopping bit was boring for men but that's to be expected. 😃

Glorified hairdryer 🤣🤣 that made me chuckle! I regularly use a slow cooker too which I love. X

[@always.wondering.wandering]

😆Cardboard packaging. Looks like you ladies had a good shopping day and what a lovely spot to have a bite and look out at the swans. It's funny, I eat a lot of jacket potatoes here as well, we call them baked potatoes. I've also never driven and EV. Do you prefer the EV or the gas engine now that you've had a try? Well I guess I better go take a look now to see what Helen and James are doing in Barcelona. Hope you have a lovely week.

[@BeckandBeyond]

I mostly call them baked potatoes too not sure where jacket potatoes comes from 😆 I think I'll stick with a petrol car for now I'd feel too vulnerable not being able to rely on just pulling into a petrol station. Enjoy James and Helens vlog I need to watch it myself. X

I’ve had electric cars for over 4 years. Brace yourself for the comments. Done Chesterfield to Cornwall 4 times, I travel the whole country with work. Never had a single issue. Wife’s now got a Tesla Model Y, so we have 2 of them. They work, and I could never go back to a petrol or diesel as a daily car. That said, if I win the lottery you’ll find me buying a Porsche 911 Turbo S.

[@BeckandBeyond]

Oh gosh my favorite car ever Porsche 911 😍 I will have one at some point!! X

[@keithvincent322]

Another interesting vlog Becky. I had to laugh re the car when you mentioned hand prints on the windows, It reminded me of a story I heard years ago, of a guy who borrowed his wife's car in the winter. The following morning when she started it up and the windscreen needed demisting from the inside, she found two footprints on the windcreen pointing downwards. I think they seperated soon afterwards. I don't know the full story of your visit to Currys but it did rather amaze me how they have changed. I was a manager in the group back in the 1980's/90's when they had high street stores. They had a six second rule, which was how long a customer should be allowed to wait before they were approached by a member of staff. An awful lot of customers didn't like that, feeling probably rightly, that they were getting badgered. How things have changed in the superstores, you often have to go find a salesperson, with the possible exception if you are in the high price ticket section. Just curious, did they try and sell you an extended guarantee on your air fryer?

[@BeckandBeyond]

Oh no.... footprints on the windscreen 🙈!! Yes things are a little bit more relaxed in Currys now probably for the better (at least for me I hate followed around shops 😆) although when we asked for help they were super helpful. Xx

[@AnthonyValentine-vm1yc]

In the 60's pre Currys, pre-nationilisation each electrical supply co had their own retail busines's. Our's was MANWEB in town. It is not the British model to approach customers univited. Currys today is my go to for eleccy goods. Yes, you have to find an assistant for the final decisive VAR vote. Prefer it.

Can't believe I did that! I did question the smell. X

[@Hitstirrer]

I understand the business perks with EVs. But hanging on to 8 year old myths about charging is disappointing. That car can charge from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes at the latest Rapid chargers. And they are everywhere now. It can also charge at a lot of Tesla Superchargers. Also, there are another 595 sites across the UK with at least 6 Rapid chargers awaiting power before opening. Putting the radio and air con only takes a mile or two off range even if used for hours. Cars like that can drive 350 miles with one stop of 20 minutes - just enough for a normal comfort and coffee break. People can't seem to break free from the negatives that were around with the first generation of EVs and hardly any infrastructure. Driving an EV these days is easy, silent and smooth. And road trips perfectly possible.

[@BeckandBeyond]

Well I'm notorious for running out of petrol so anything would be an improvement for me 😂 it's like anything new it takes time to change the opinions of a nation but they obviously will take over at some point! X
