Use Carswitch’s #1 rated service to buy or sell used cars in UAE

There is no denying the fact that 2022 is going to be a remarkable year of EV arrivals. As far as the last year was concerned, it was considered as a distinguished year for EV flagships as we witnessed some of the best in the business such as the GMC Hummer EV, Mercedes-Benz EQS, Tesla Model S Plaid, and Lucid Air that all reflected the foremost edge of new technology somehow. This year’s EV mainstream models could undoubtedly turn significant numbers of enthusiasts on to this new technological extravaganza. However, there’s also a lack of all-out affordability, with the majority of the price tags suitably elaborated as premium but not extreme. If you want to opt for used electric vehicles in Dubai or any part of the world, you should go for platforms such as CarSwitch that can offer you all your most favored EVs at affordable prices. 

Here are some of the wondrous EVs to look forward to in 2022. 

Kia EV6

The awe-inspiring 2022 Kia EV6 marks a new beginning of an era involving a new design focus for Kia and most importantly its first EV to be manufactured on the global E-GMP platform by Hyundai (parent company). Despite being the same size as the closely associated Hyundai Ioniq 5, it proudly follows a racier rather than more up-to-the-minute design. Moreover, with as much as 577 hp maximum and also 546 lb-ft of torque in top-notch efficiency of GT form, it can speed up rather quickly i.e. 0-62 mph in merely 3.5 seconds. Besides, it has also got you covered in the charging department as it can jump from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes, and that also uses 800-volt CCS hardware. While the majority of the model line has a 77.4-kWh battery pack for as many as 310 miles maximum, the awe-inspiring dual-motor all-wheel drive will obviously dip the range to a remarkable 274 miles. Besides, a 58-kWh standard-range battery pack will obviously provide you with up to 232 EPA miles with a fascinating rear-wheel drive. 

BMWi4

As far as the BMW’s i4 is concerned, it is something of a successor to the fascinating i3 hatchback, but this model couldn’t be more distinguished. The 2022 BMW i4 is a dashing hatchback that proudly meshes BMW 3-Series sport-sedan fascinating heritage with the fifth-generation EV technology of the iconic automaker. The best part is that they are not only offering the car that proudly offers not just a Tesla Model 3 rival, but also something that is different in a true sense. The new offering comes with a standard air suspension and most importantly a clear focus on the precise ride as well as handling. It is also expected that the performance enthusiasts will opt to head to the BMW i4 M50 that churns out a 536-hp output from the dual-motor system and also a 3.9-second 0-60 mph time, however, with a lower range of 227 or 270 miles. 

Nissan Ariya

Nissan’s aim of bringing a second EV comes to fruition with the 2022 Ariya that is scheduled to come later this year. The fascinating dual-motor Ariya in pinnacle forms will awesomely pack e-4orce all-wheel-drive control while proudly drawing from expertise with the GT-R supercar and also proudly integrating nuance in the motor controls to assist ride as well as handling. Besides, with as many as 389 hp to the most and also 443 lb-ft of torque, it will speed up to 60 mph in merely 5.0 seconds, and versions carrying as many as 65 kWh and 90 kWh of batteries will obviously top out at almost 220 and 300 miles, respectively.

You will be amazed to find out that the 2023 Toyota bZ4X is the first mass-produced, broadly available EV that is offered by the company and it proudly lands in a highly competitive space against the likes of Volkswagen ID.4, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Nissan Ariya to name a few. Besides, the single- and dual-motor versions of the model are also due, with not only front but also all-wheel drive, respectively. It is worth mentioning that 0-60 mph time can be attained in 8.4 and 7.7 seconds and also EPA range ratings may reach up to 250 miles or so.
