These new EVs will enter your fleet in 2020 - updated

2020 promises to bring a plethora of more affordable electric cars. As such, they become accessible to many more company car drivers, so prepare for the e-wave on your corporate parking lot.  

Electric driving used to be the privilege of top-level managers. That has already changed with the arrival of the Tesla Model 3. The following newcomers will surely shake up the current top 10, which includes best-sellers like the BMW i3, VW e-Golf, Hyundai Ioniq, Nissan Leaf, Kia e-Niro, Hyundai Kona, Jaguar I-Pace, Audi E-tron, and the Tesla Model S.

A-segment (small city cars)

Fiat 500e. The new 500 will become slightly bigger and get an all-electric powertrain. The development started before the merger with PSA, so it won't be sharing any parts with Citroën, Opel or Peugeot just now.
Honda e: No, it’s not a prototype, but a production-ready neo-retro city car with a massive digital display for a top-notch infotainment experience. It’s not cheap, though, and has a small battery.
Mini Electric: Premium and electric, Mini might just pull it off, even though its small battery limits its use to the daily commute and dipping in and out of town.
Renault Twingo Z.E.: the Smart ForFour finally gets an electric twin with a Renault badge, which slots below the revamped Zoé and offers a lot less range.
Seat Mii/Skoda Citigo iV/VW e-Up: these revamped city triplets made by VW offer about 250km of range for prices starting at less than €18,000 + VAT.

B-segment (large city cars)

Opel Corsa E/Peugeot e-208: These PSA cousins offer compelling TCO credentials and up to 340km of range – enough to convince a large number of commuters.
Renault Zoé: A thorough update to this e-pioneer ensures it can now drive up to 400km with its enhanced battery, which you can still buy or rent.

B SUV & C Segment (compact cars)

Citroën compact crossover: We got a sneak peak of Citroën’s new model in Paris a few months ago, which looks a bit like a blend of a C4, a Toyota CH-R and a Honda Civic.
DS3 Crossback E-Tense: Kind of a unique offering, this small premium crossover based on the Peugeot e-208/Opel Corsa E.  
Lexus UX300e: Toyota’s premium sub brand reaches out to the same audience as the DS3 Crossback, offering a similar range but better performance thanks to its 150kW motor.
Mazda MX-30: Mazda can hardly claim it is a fleet brand, but that might change with the all-electric maverick crossover. For its architecture, it seems to have looked at the BMW i3, but its battery offers less range.
MG ZS EV: It’s Chinese, therefore it offers incredible value for money. And it’s safe, too: EuroNCAP gave it 5 stars. Korean and European OEMs should be worried: this crossover has a lot going for it.
Peugeot e-2008 & Opel Mokka E: The non-premium cousins of the DS3 will surely woo the crowds with their crossover bodies.
Seat El-Born: VW’s Spanish subsidiary is readying its very own take on the ID3, which technically is its identical twin.
VW ID3: If there is one EV you will see in great numbers, it will be this one – at least, that’s what VW expects. It offers three battery pack sizes to suit everyone’s needs (from 330 to 550 km).

C SUV/D Segment (midsize cars)

Mercedes EQA: Instead of an electric A-Class derivative, the EQA will be a crossover based on the recently revealed GLA, so expect a baby EQC.
Mercedes EQB: If you need 7 seats or just more loading space and practicality than the EQA offers, you should consider its bigger brother, which will offer similar battery specs.
Nissan Arya: sizewise, this all-electric crossover sits between the Qashqai and X-Trail. It leverages years of experience built up with the Leaf and comes with two battery pack sizes.
Polestar 2: Volvo’s performance-oriented sister brand attacks the Tesla Model 3 head on, with 300kW worth of electric horses, 500km of range and class-leading infotainment.
Volvo XC40 P8 Recharge: the popular crossover shares its electric powertrain with the Polestar 2. The same goes for its highly connected infotainment system, which is powered by Android.
VW ID4: What the Tesla Model Y is to the Model 3, the ID4 is to the ID3: a sleek crossover derivative to appeal to those who need more space.

D SUV/E Segment (large cars)

Audi Q4 e-tron: As you would guess, the Q4 slots just below the Q5 and will try to convince the same audience as the BMW iX3 and Mercedes EQC.
BMW iX3: The all-electric model of the X3 is finally coming, promising 450km of range with its 75kWh battery. It will be built in China.
Ford Mustang Mach-E: It will only come to Europe in limited numbers this year, this very sporty crossover with very competitive range and performance numbers.

E SUV/F Segment (executive cars)

Audi e-tron Sportback: This I-Pace rival offers a choice of two battery packs, just like the standard e-tron model.
Jaguar XJ: The British flagship saloon will only come as an electric car and is likely to share its technology with the I-Pace.
Mercedes EQV. Luxury travel for up to 8 people in absolute silence and without emitting a single gram of CO2: it’s now possible.
