BMW i4

Price: from $54,190

The BMW i4 surpasses the range of its Sino-Swedish rival (484 km) and has more power. It also offers an equally practical body (5 doors) and a sportier road feel. The Bavarian will however have to be more convincing on other aspects, such as the effectiveness of her training method. Driving a rear-wheel drive (two-wheel drive) during the white season is likely to make more than one Quebec consumer hesitate. To get all-wheel drive, it is imperative to opt for the M50 (our photo), but this one entails a more substantial outlay (starting at $72,990).

Tesla Model 3

Price: from $59,990

Tesla is no longer a cheeky little Silicon Valley start-up, but a full-fledged automaker. This global recognition, Tesla owes it mainly to the Model 3, entry ticket to the range of this manufacturer. Beautifully designed, versatile and fun to drive, this sedan has risen — against all odds and regardless of the energy source that powers it — to the top of the best-selling sports sedans on the market. Faced with the Polestar 2, the American offers a more diversified catalog, an established charging infrastructure, proven general reliability and higher energy efficiency. On the other hand, it would benefit from tightening its quality of construction.
