YOU LEXY THING

Lexus has launched a saucy new plug-in hybrid SUV – and the NX 450h+ has an electric range of over 40 miles. Our pick is the F-sport version with its ace infotainment system, head-up display and chunky 20in wheels. The hybrid system has the potential to return 300mpg and there’s super-quick charging too.

MAMA FOLD ME

Want to stand out from the Brompton pack? The Axon Pro Lite is a tiny e-bike with a folding magnesium alloy frame, 250W motor and three drive modes managed via an LCD display. It can reach the 15.5mph limit for e-bikes in the UK, while perilously narrow 16in wheels add excitement to the 25-mile range.

HOLD MY SPHERE

Lime is a perfect colour for the zingy Genesis GV60… and things get even wilder on the inside. There’s heaps of fancy tech including the Crystal Sphere, a revolving orb in the centre console for selecting drive modes. This electric SUV is built on Hyundai’s E-GMP platform, and has Boost and Drift modes.
