There are 3,610 electric estates on the index this morning, and they are the fastest-moving corner of the used market. The median one sells in under a fortnight, which is half the time a petrol estate of the same age takes and the clearest demand signal in the file.
The choice splits into three tiers. The MG5 owns the bottom — most of the sub-£18k stock, and the reason the band’s median sits where it does. The VW ID.7 Tourer and BMW i5 Touring own the middle, arriving off three-year leases in volume. And at the top, a handful of Porsche Taycan Cross Tourismos hold £70k-plus almost without depreciation.
What to check before you join the queue: the battery certificate, not the service book. Every car in this cut carries a state-of-health figure on its index record, and the spread within one model year is wider than the price spread between good and bad examples. Buy the number, not the badge.
