Electric cars

With tens of thousands of Israelis owning electric or plug-in cars, there’s a backup: V2L technology allows household devices to be powered directly from the car’s battery. Here’s how it works.

Starting at NIS 140,000, this Chinese SUV is bigger than the Hyundai Kona and Toyota Corolla Cross, yet much cheaper. Could anything stop it from becoming a hit?

The electric car market is declining, but gaps show. Strong leasing pushed Deepal to first in a Chinese-dominated market. Only Kia EV3 enters the top five; top European model, Mercedes CLA, is 20th.

Until last year, electric SUVs cost ~NIS 180,000. In 2026, many models are available for NIS 160,000–170,000, not just Chinese. Which is better, and can they revive EV sales?

Mayer has begun marketing the ES90, promising a 650 km range, 300 km of charging in 10 minutes, and significantly lower prices than BMW and Audi. All the details.

At 4.70 m long, the #5 is the Smart farthest from the original, yet it still stands out in a crowded crossover market. Sadly, the price is anything but mini.

While Porsche may cancel its electric sports car, Ferrari presses on with the Lucea, revealing a driver cockpit that blends retro style with Apple-inspired design.

The electric revolution reaches the mass market. In Israel, 7 models promise over 500 km range for under NIS 200,000, taking you from Haifa to Eilat without stopping.

The announcement was made as part of the Q4 2025 Shareholders' update, during which the company reported its quarterly earnings and plans for 2026.

The Chinese manufacturer, which started in Israel with a car priced at NIS 0.5M, begins selling the relatively large EHS5, with an official range of 550 km.
