I'm kicking around the idea of picking an EV this year. There are some really good options coming to market the next couple of months. Kia's EV6, Hyundai Ioniq5, BMW i4 e40 and the Mustang Mach E are all really good options.
The BMW seems to have a few compromises that seem odd/annoying but overall I have no doubt it's the best built of the bunch.
Polestar options are interesting but range is crap which is unfortunate. The rest of the packages are compelling.
I've got level 2 charging capability in my garage. I put in two drops when we built so that shouldn't be a problem.
Distinct pro's/con's on each of the above. Frankly the Hyundai/Kia family is super compelling assuming they are comfortable and quiet. 800v charging, reasonable prices and strong warranty.
Mustang also compelling, great range, well built, strong dealer network.
BMW best built, looks great, likely very comfy based on my past history with BMW seats. But more expensive, not sure about warranty yet and will my dealer (only dealer in town) be difficult to work with?
Any thoughts? Comments? Am I missing any options? Would welcome any insight you guys have.

Where are you located? What kind of driving do you do? Do you like to drive fast or do you like to relax and enjoy the scenery when you drive? Do you have a long commute? Given the way you drive, what kind of range do you require/desire before having to recharge?
The more information you give us, the better the advice.
