Being an electric car owner myself for the last couple of years and will be changing in 2021 I was looking for a list of fully electric cars available in Ireland.
I don't see a list here so I made one myself, it's probably not complete but hopefully might help someone coming to here thinking of changing over and give them an idea of what's available.
I'm only including BEV (read as fully electric for the uninitiated), I guess I can add PHEV etc to the end of the list if people want. Also I've only added cars currently or soon to be available here.
If you know answers to any I couldn't figure out below let me know and obviously if I'm missing any let me know.

Tesla only opened up shop in Ireland in 2017 so any Tesla on Irish plates from 2016 or before came from the UK.

I think only 75 and 100 kWh Teslas were available in Ireland. The others would be imports.

Yeah I know that alright, I was thinking of going with the advertised. I wanted to put the WLTP range in too, and then the charger type and charging speed max.

It would help loads of people who come looking about info on what electric cars are available here and what size/range are they etc.. The basics really.

Maybe do as a Google Spreadsheet and we can link it in the first post. Could be easier to maintain.

Perhaps stick to ones available new now or at most next quarter, or face updates with every vaporware announcement. Secondhand good but not essential.

Yes a user can only edit their OP for so long. That's why the moderator suggested you start a Google Sheet. Otherwise he would have to do all the editing

Did you know that the very first thread in this forum is yours BTW? It's from 2009 (!) and your thread title is:

Tesla Model S

Thought I would add to this from doing my own research and what might be affordable to me. Might be helpful to others. Had a few extra columns to display how may times we could get to a certain location before charging to help with range anxiety.
I have included WLTP at 85% to take into account for non ideal conditions. Would this be about right? The ratios in the last 2 columns are however using the WLTP numbers.
Basic enough but handy for reference.
The Ionic Ioniq is clearly very efficient.

Make Model Battery (kWh) Price (including VRT/ Grant) WLTP Range (km) Range @ 85% of WLTP Range / kW kW/100km
Hyundai Ioniq 38.3 €34,850 312 265 8.15 12.28
Hyundai Kona 64 €38,630 449 382 7.02 14.25
Peugeot e208 50 €28,994 340 289 6.80 14.71
Peugeot e2008 50 310 264 6.20 16.13
Volkswagen ID3 58 €33,625 410 349 7.07 14.15
Kia eNiro 64 €39,495 455 387 7.11 14.07
Kia eSoul 64 €37,495 452 384 7.06 14.16
Renault Zoe 52 €28,990 395 336 7.60 13.16
Volkswagen e-Golf 35.8 €29,111 231 196 6.45 15.50
Tesla Model 3 SR+ 50 €47,840 409 348 8.18 12.22

Mod Note: Updated Ioniq to correct name

The ID.3 1st edition is €33k, not €41k??

Battery column should be kWh, not kW.

How's this? I broke it into three worksheets for current past and future.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kATX18mV89VYfutyw2TzIWCDCZKPOGxMWgZ-n9hl-Cs/edit

Anyone wants write access happy to give it. Suggestions for extra columns welcome; efficiency? Link to the boards thread for each model?

Looks good, I'd break out the usable, and total battery into two separate columns so people can make a fair comparison, maybe put in bold the advertised one.
I've added the link to the first post.

Spotted this on Reddit today. Looks promising, though I wonder how many of those will never make it to Ireland

Well the VAG triplets unfortunately won't make it here and I was sad to see Byton is no more. But a lot of those cars are either already available or will come within the next year or two.

I see a pretty bright future for the VAG cars and for Xpeng and other Chinese companies. And hopefully some of the other European companies with huge heritage will catch up before it is too late. We will likely see some very big casualties over the next decade or so.

Needs an update. Peugeot are both out now, as is the Opel Corsa E.

Could add some detail to the id4 too in the future sheet. Pricing is handy for those planning ahead.

Some of the pricing on face lift cars has changed too. Niro sells for 40+ now I believe.
