If you're able to buy a brand new electric car, there are plenty of great vehicles for you to pick from. But if you're looking to buy a used electric car, it can be a bit of a minefield determining which vehicles will suit your needs and remain well-supported long after they're made.

So today, we're making a video recommending which EVs are currently well-supported by their original manufacturers, which ones are well-supported by third-party garages, and which ones are relatively easy for competent mechanics to work on themselves.
