Reviews of EV City

J. D.

The team at EV City provided me one of the best car sales experience I have ever had. Very informative, thorough, friendly and exceptional service. I got my new Nissan Leaf and I am super happy about it. The team go above and beyond and can't thank them enough!!!

F. B.

Buying an EV (mine is a 2017 Nissan Leaf) from EV City felt more like joining a super cool club, or visiting a styley cafe, than purchasing a vehicle. Jordan and the crew at EVCity are super relaxed, full of top line info about all things EV and, judging by the way they all geek out at every electric vehicle passing by on Wordsworth Street, hyper-passionate about EVs in general. With the government actively encouraging EV ownership, a public charger network that is expanding exponentially, not to mention fuel prices on the rise, now is a perfect time to make the jump to the EV hyperspace. So say “buh-BYE” to the bowser and hello to the electron with a car from EV City!

E. R.

Jordan has been amazing to deal with - he gave us all the info we needed to make our decision, and made the experience fun! We really appreciate it. We are now the proud owners of a fabulous Leaf, and EV City even arranged a towbar for us so that we can take the bikes with us. We're stoked!

D. S. S.

The folks at EV City have been a genuine pleasure to work with. No question has been too dumb! Customer service is outstanding. I am thrilled to finally own an electric car. Thanks EV City! 👍

We just bought our first EV from EV City and couldn't be happier with the whole experience. Their showroom is great, they have a good range of cars that are really well presented, and the staff and service were top-notch. We had about 1,000 questions but they met each with a smile and were super helpful with great answers and plenty of advice. Definitely recommend

S.

Excellent experience with EV city. I had this intuition that all will work out and I was not wrong. Got our Leaf and pretty much did everything online. Was a flawless experience. Jordan was very helpful and friendly. Thumbs up! If you are interested in electric vehicles, EV City is the place to check out.

J. L.

It was very much a pleasure getting a car from EV City. Every single member of the team was professional, kind and patient with me as I was completely new to everything about EVs and charging and buying a car. Jordan was especially kind and shared his knowledge of charging, cables and set me up with ChargeNet. No pushy tactics, complete space to check out the car, test drive the car and decide. Thank you guys very much for making my first car buy a pleasant and easy experience. For anyone looking to buy an EV, now's the time and these guys will set you up and clear your doubts.

T. C.

I bought my second car from EV City last week and couldn't be happier. They set the standard for professionalism in their industry. Not only do they have excellent communication, but they made the process so easy, especially around the documentation for my EV rebate. I love how they were straight up and down to earth with me. There is no shady car salesman vibe here, nor pressure to buy. I'll be recommending them to all my friends. Special shout out to Jordan and Nick for facilitating my purchase!

J. G.

This year I have bought two Leafs. One 30kw 2016 and one 40kw 2018. My 40kw was bought from EV city. The buyer experience and follow up care and support doesn't even compare against the other car yard. EV City is like fine dinning vs Drive through (the other yard ) Keep in mind the other car yard were also really trustworthy but just less of everything in after sales care. Jordan has been nothing but honest, supportive and funny. I really feel very looked after and safe with my purchase. He has been in touch to check in on how things are going and making sure to be available for any questions or support. I have already recommend EV City to friends who are looking for an EV. I will be buying from them again and again. I won't even bother going anywhere else. Being in Wellington wasn't even a problem and I still felt safe to buy from sight unseen. The team will call you when your car is ready so you can to a virtual inspection of the car and to be shown around how it works etc. They also follow up with you when the car arrives to virtually talk you through your questions on how to operate your new space ship. It has been a really positive and enjoyable experience buying from Jordan and the team. It's the most expensive thing I have ever bought besides my house. And their service helped me enjoy my big buy and not worry Thank you Jordan for been awesome. Can't wait to buy another EV from you in the future. Jo

K. C.

We found EV City staff very friendly and helpful. They took the time to ensure we had an understanding of EV cars and answer all of our questions. there was no pressure put on us at all which made it easy for us to confidently make a decision to buy our car from them. I totally recommend you make EV City your first and only stop

R.

Bought a Leaf through these guys. Could not have been happier with the service and advice - Very open about the products they sell and a pleasure to deal with. Mainly dealt with Jordan who was great, the whole team seem to really know what they are doing 👍

J.

Bit of plug for EV City in Christchurch, pun intended. After a month of happy, trouble free driving the car didn't charge overnight. A quick visit to the local fast charge to top and a brief text exchange with Jordan at EV City and I was able to drop in this morning where his very helpful colleagues exchanged my charging cable, no questions asked, and the car is now plugged in and charging no problem. Faultless service.Bought a 2017 Leaf last Friday. Very impressed with the standard of customer service and in particular the very thorough and prompt communication. Knowledgeable staff who are very helpful.

R. F.

We are very impressed with EV city and the team. They challenge the stereotype of car salesmen. Great people and super nice to deal with. Our Leaf is so well presented it looks like a new car. Thank you all for wonderful service.

M.

We bought a leaf a year ago and just love it. Saved all the $ we would have spent on fuel and will have a holiday when we can travel again. My husband is getting over range anxiety at long last. We had a problem with our charger last night and the fabulous chaps swapped it for a new one no problems at all. Love the service at EV City. Thanks again.

M.

Wow, that was the best buying car experience ever!! full tank, spotless car, everything I needed to drive away. The team went over all the car features with me. I loved that there were no hidden surprises and the price was competitive as I had been looking for months. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a EV car.

A. F.

Really really impressed with the service we had from the guys at EV city, Jordan was super friendly and helpful, any questions were thoughtfully answered and what a wealth of knowledge and passion for electric cars!! Really put both my husband and I at ease, quick and seamless transaction with thorough explanations all the way…. I will definitely be recommending!

A.

Brilliant service !! Outstanding knowledge, beautiful showroom. Top class cars. Went the extra mile and went over an above my expectations. I'm a big fan ! Thanks team EV :)

J.

Highly recommended. Extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Never felt any pressure to make a sale, just honest advice. Car is immaculate, and all the hard work done. Simply drive away in your shiny, like new EV, with no hassle!

N. C.

Awesome bunch of humans at EV City. Jordan is absolutely a star 🌟. Went out if his way to serve us and keep my boys entertained. My Leaf 2020 is absolutely amazing. We love the car. Thanks EV City for the wonderful experience with the purchase of our first EV..

M.

The sales team at EV City were very approachable, very friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. They clearly aim to be the best at what they do. Buying an EV from them was made so easy and I love my new vehicle.

S.

Fantastic staff who assisted me when a fault developed in my Leaf even though it was purchased through a different car yard. They have a wealth of knowledge and are actively working on creating an EV community. I will definately be purchasing my next EV from there!

v. b.

Great service didn’t know anything about EV all staff help a lot. We are happy with our car purchase and recommend to everyone try Ev city if you are planning to buy a electric vehicle. Special thanks to Jordan and Nick. We got better price and trade in then any car yard in crch.

K.

We purchased our 2017 30KWH Leaf through EV City 2 weeks ago and we can't agree more. Jordan, Nick and Rob are very knowledgeable, passionate and yet understanding and , probably most important, non-pushy in their customer approach. As previous ICE car owners,this made our "plunge" into the World of EV's safe and easy. Allthough we had previous experience with a Leaf borrowed from a friend and experienced "range anxiety", our questions and concerns were dealt with in an honest, respectful and informative way. This made our final decision to purchase our Leaf with EV City very easy. Their customer care, even after hours, made us feel welcomed at the (EV) table, never pulled over it. The decision for the 30KWH model was based on our local transport needs, model year, usage, price and outfit. All of this was considered in the initial talks we had with Jordan and Nick. They steered us in the direction we felt most comfortable and happy with, based on their unbiased knowledge and personal expertise. (Thanks, Jordan ! :-) ) We have just begun our EV journey and can well and truly recommend the team at EV City.

G.

After chasing my dream of owning the new design leaf, I finally bought one. The process with EV is so easy, stress free and uncomplicated. Jordan and Nick were fantastic, actually so was Dave (from a few years ago when he explained everything so well, we just weren't ready for the transition to electric). What made it so good was the in-depth knowledge, understanding and patience, but above all else, the easy going manner with absolutely no pressure. Thank you

W. P.

Was extremely happy with the service at EV City, the guys are both very knowledgeable and as two characters compliment each other with their different passions for EV vehicles. Couldn't believe how fast they were able to work with their finance company to approve a sale, and we were able to test drive and walk away within just a few hours (half even via text message). So far the support post sale has continued, so would highly recommend EV City, and have already to friends that also ended up buying an EV!

K. S.

We live in Queenstown and rang EV City Christchurch to enquire about which type of Leaf would suit us best so had a few questions ready to ask. Jordan's expertise on the cars was exactly what we needed. He answered all our questions with no hesitation his friendly manner made us feel comfortable he has excellent communication skills and gave us some really sound advice on the different models. Purchasing a car sight unseen was not a problem either as Jordan organised a video chat so we could see all the features of the car, check tyres, interior and exterior. We opted for the conversion to English Maps ( highly recommend) and then EV City trucked our car down to Queenstown and delivered to our door free of charge ! Now I have my Leaf I notice so many others in Queenstown and the majority have EV City plate surrounds. We would highly recommend EV City Christchurch if you are looking at an electric vehicle.

W.

I was looking to purchase a vehicle without being able to see it because I live in Auckland. The staff with whom I interacted during the process each gave me the confidence to do so. An extensive video-conferencing call with one of the staff (suggested by Dave and undertaken by Jordan) - in which I was shown through the car, my questions answered and a list of things drawn up to be addressed with the car - was pivotal in my decision to buy the vehicle. So too was the personable nature of each of the staff. Also of comfort was that each of the four staff with whom I interacted in the course of things knew about the car, of my interest in it, and of the issues that were to be addressed in the course of my purchase. The process spoke to me of the staffs' competence as a team and the trustworthiness of the business.

D.

These guys have broken the mold of used car salesmen. They are informed, polite, respectful, helpful, courteous and generous with their time. Jordan, Nick and the team made my experience of buying my first EV an enjoyable and enlightening one. I'll go back when I'm ready for my next EV.

S.

Customer care above and beyond. Super friendly and dedicated staff will fully guide and support you in your transition to EV vehicles. Worth giving them a visit even just to learn about your options and test drive an EV car.

j.

Walked in today, drove out with a new car, just amazing service there at ev city. About 3 years ago walked in, didn't buy but was very happy with service. Came back today after remembering that and bought a car. Big thanks

G.

If you're looking to get an EV but have your doubts about how you'll manage the transition, the boys at EV City promise a unique buying experience. Not even once did I feel like I was getting sold a car. Instead I felt like I was talking to a bunch of people more knowledgeable than myself, presenting them with a problem and hearing them propose a solution. They're always open to discussions, reaffirming what you already know or shoring up your knowledge on going green car-wise. Very customer centric approach, they do everything they can to make your green solution work for your situation, which is how you can tell these guys are passionate about how EVs can change our climate impact. I would definitely recommend these guys. They're definitely keen to help you go green.

M. L.

Wow! What an amazing experience in customer service! As first time ev buyers the whole team have been great to deal with. Very knowledgeable and always happy to answer any questions with a welcoming smile. Communication is excellent through the whole process and after sale. Thanks for going the extra (petrol-less!) mile to look after us EV City :-)

J. C.

We recently bought a late model used Nissan Leaf from EV City. We feel we have a good car at a fair price. The process of learning about, selecting, and purchasing the car was a pleasure, and more straightforward than we were anticipating when we decided to make the switch to electric. We did make comparisons with prices from other dealers online but never felt the need to seriously shop around. I would definitely recommend Jordan and Nick at EV City - thanks guys!

S. M.

Great Team at EV city, We had to buy a new car due to an accident. And we thought about an EV for the next one. As it is our first EV we had our concerns and questions. But Rob, Jordan and Nick were here to guide us, explain us including outside working hours. We felt understood in our objectives and goals. Finally it is not one EV we bought but two! I highly recommend the shop and the team.

s.

Just dropped in to check out the prices and ended up talking to Dave and Jordan. Very Knowledgeable friendly guys, who took the time to explain how EV's work and which model would suit us the best. There was never any pressure to buy or a push towards the more expensive models. My wife and I bought a Leaf Aero as a replacement for her mini cooper. First time EV owners and we love it. Thanks guys.

B. M.

Recently purchased an EV from EV City after a friend had raved about the service she received when she bought her first EV . The team looked after us incredibly well, taking the time to show us around, answer our questions but most importantly asking us questions to ensure they were showing us the right vehicles for our needs. Highly recommend.

A. G.

I am a buyer from Wellington and was a bit anxious to buy an EV from a dealer on the South Island. That concern was taken off me already at the first phone call. I felt very looked after throughout the entire process and to pick up the car in Christchurch was the right thing to do. I was shown the functionality of the car to whatever degree and depth I asked for. The process of getting the car registered and insured was very easy. At no point of the selling process did I feel pressured or harassed. Dave's knowledge about EVs is extraordinary and his patience to answer my questions is fantastic. Thank you for a very much appreciated deal.

S.

What a fantastic service. Complete attention to the customer 😀. Thank you so much Jordan for your wonderful service. Your approach was respectful and very informative. You have kept us updated and well informed with the process. It's is great to join the EV club and we are excited to drive our Nissan Leaf Aero.....specifically with blue tyres 🤩🤩.

J.

Wow the team I've worked with at EV city, Dave Nick Jordan, are all such lovely guys who really go above and beyond to make the whole experience of switching to electric cars an absolute pleasure. Also just got a service and WOF done with them which was very thorough and gave me peace of mind. I am so happy I chose to go with EV city, really can't recommend them enough. You're in such good hands!

V. B.

Very good service from Jordan during the whole process of buying a Nissan Leaf. You can tell that Jordan is passionate about electric vehicles. He was making sure we got the best service, he was always nice and friendly and answered our many questions professionally! Very happy with his service and our new Leaf!

B.

The team at EV city in Christchurch were professional but down to earth. They mad eme feel welcome, had immense knowledge and passion for their line of work. The whole process was efficient and personable and I loved the fact that I got to borrow a car overnight to ensure it did what I needed it to do. They considered my required use and budget and teh continued support of the team is a huge comfort. I'm a full convert and will be sending all friends their way. Massive thanks.

P.

Having little experience with electric vehicles and having driven a manual transmission diesel for the last 12 years, I was somewhat apprehensive getting behind the wheel of an EV. However, with the support of the EV City team, I was happily driving off in my EV. EV City will provide me with all my future EV needs. Why go anywhere else?

L.

Thanks Jordan and the team at EV City, we love our new car! All the staff were friendly and knowledgeable, answered every question we had about electric vehicles. There were two Nissan Leafs I had seen listed on trademe that we wanted to have a look at, and after listening to our needs Jordan steered us in the direction of the one which is now our new car. (I had always thought the nissan leaf to be a small car, but it fits carseats and strollers with ease and still room to move) They made the purchase a simple process even with trading in our previous vehicle, explained the rebate process and helped set us up with chargenet, the fast charging network across New Zealand. The communication and aftercare has been fantastic, they are all very approachable if we were to have any querries. Can not recommend EV City and the team enough, go check them out.

E.

Excellent, extremely knowledgeable staff who go above and beyond to make sure you're well informed about EVs, all the way through pre and post purchase. Outstanding service that far exceeds that which I've received from any other car dealer. No pushy salesman tactics. The team at EV City clearly are genuinely passionate about EVs and that shows. Highly reccomend that you pay them a visit if you are considering buying an EV. I will definitely be sending any friends and family who want to make the change their way.

D.

Fantabulous service and great easy going people. Helped me find an EV within my price range and with some really cool features. I highly recommend going electric if your a city person and the guys at EV city are the very best!

K.

Bought our Outlander Phev at EV City last Wednesday. We had a great customer service experience from the day of enquiry upto the hand over of the car.They have an amazing team,they showed us all the car specifications and answered all our questions. Jordan is very responsive and updates us always regarding the car and we are very thankful of him for helping us get through the process of getting our Outlander Phev. Highly recommended 😊

K.

Just got my first EV👍. After a week of secret visits to the guys at EV City, my husband pulled off the greatest deception with the teams help. Thank you and well done, you all deserve an OsCAR. It's only been a few hours but I am loving it; weard there is no engine noise, but the background road noise compensates. Karen

K.

Jordan is so knowledgeable and answered al my questions. Sales staff are not pushy. They organised everything as a team. There is no competition within the staff as they work as a team. I am very excited to have my first electric car and it was made simple and efficient experience through EV city. I would definitely recommend.

J.

Great business. Sold more cars in a day than they normally do in a month. Jordan was very helpfull and we bought a Nissan leaf 2017 with 24,000 ks on clock.

A.

Superb company to deal with. Friendly staff and always willing to help. Nice touch from Jordan as I left the car yard in my new Leaf as he stood at attention on the forecourt seeing me off.

P.

We've owned both hybrid, phev and EV vehicles for around 8 years. We found a chat with Rob the most informative, non pressured discussion we have had with a car salesperson throughout. Thanks.

D.

A great place to deal with. It is a very trustworthy business who have been passionate about evs for many years. We were supplied with a charging cable, a manual, English conversion and 2 keys. Jordan gave top service, kept in good contact, and gave us the right amount of information. I highly recommend EV City.

m.

The reviews don't lie. If you are after an EV, this is the place to go. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, and not in the least bit pushy. The team know they have an excellent product for interested buyers, the vehicles speak for themselves. And genuine aftersales interest shown from Jordan in the weeks following the sale further demonstrates EV City's willingness to provide a quality environmentally friendly transport option. I would definitely buy another car from these guys!

I.

Helped my mum with the process of buying a 2017 30kwh Leaf from EV City - a week after picking the car up, we couldn't be happier with the result! Excellent customer service, Jordan and Rob and the rest of the crew went above and beyond to answer any questions we had and clue us in on the process around owning an EV - their passion for EV's really shines through. We never felt under any pressure to make quick or rash decisions, and the whole purchasing process was extremely comfortable. Now I want a Leaf for myself :) I'll be back to EV City when the time's right! Thanks team! - Dorinda and Iain

G.

In the first few weeks I got stuck navigating through the Leaf's instructions. I'm sure it was my fault but every time I phoned EV City the guys were amazingly patient and helpful. I'd use them again without fail. Thanks guys.

l.

We came into the business to learn and explore the options of EV’s. We were made to feel so at ease, no pressure and all our questions answered that it was a no brainer to buy a vehicle from these guys. The whole process was easy and we have a lovely new car. We have recommended you on to friends already and know you’ll look after them

P.

I have nEVer been in a car dealership that was so relaxed 😌 and I don't mean they did not care or were not attentive, because nothing could be further from the truth. Over 3 days in the past week, I went from being an interested party to having a wife drive away in a car today. It was, however, the journey itself that was so easy (and as EVeryone keeps saying 'it is now a no brainer to own one' too) hand held all the way and never was it a 'dumb' question (EVen if it was it nEVer showed in their reply) which was always informative, easy to understand and jargon free; not just about the car either, but how home and public chargers work, setting up access / Apps on Karens phone, the list of 'service' given by these guys would be huge if we listed them all. As you might imagine, we think these guys should gets (and deserve) a 12 out of 10) rating. Had great fun with them setting up my wife too 😀 - she had no idea she was even going to see a car today, not alone drive one away.

O.

We enjoyed dealing with EV City when purchasing our Nissan Leaf. Both Jordan and Nick were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend them. Thanks guys.

Y.

Very friendly, honest and knowledgeable team. They made the process of buying a Leaf and trading in a car easy and so straightforward.

W.

Very early this year I bought a Nissan Leaf with the larger size battery from the folk at EV City in Christchurch. It goes like a dream. It's first task was, loaded with household possessions to the n-th degree, to convey me from Christchurch to my new home in Tuarapere, western Southland. The route was via the Mackenzie Country, the Lindis Pass, Cromwell and Frankton. The Leaf handled it all just so easily. Whenever recharging was needed, there was a charging station available. Over the past few months, there have been regular trips to Invercargill - an hour each way. No trouble for the Leaf at all And the dashboard features are amazing I am one happy customer.

M.

Outstanding service from the EV City Team! Jordan is a complete legend who went above and beyond our expectations, and special thanks also to Nick and the rest if the team. Ngā mihi nui from the Robinsons!

H.

Amazing service. Just bought a leaf from them. Jordan was our man and he was incredibly helpful. 100% recommend.

T.

Highly recommend EV City, they very clearly go the extra mile. I am very happy with the experience and my new leaf. Thanks!

T.

Thank you Team for an awesome experience and getting me back into my new Groot! Staff are always super friendly and helpful. Possibly a Teenage Groot or may have to pick another name. Olaf has sticks for arms, maybe that lol

W.

5 stars don't do this place any justice, the team at EV City is excellent, really excellent! They are patient, courteous and respectful to all of their customers. Their willingness to share knowledge and to help you gain experience with owning an electric vehicle well after you've purchased is unprecedented. Dave's well selected team ensures that whatever vehicle you buy you won't need to worry about the quality, they've done that for you in their vehicle selection process. We're so happy to have walked into their showroom and we'll be doing that again on our next purchase! Thank you EV City for taking such great care of us - we'll be back to see you again soon :-)

J.

Super happy with the newest addition to the whānau! Thank you so much to EV for helping us! You guys are so amazing and super helpful! Could not recommend enough, especially if you are new to EVs!

t.

Excellent personal service, very knowledgeable team, was great at answering new to ev driving questions. Made buying process very easy.

K.

Great knowledgeable staff can answer any EV questions you may have if you r thinking about switching to an EV or own an EV well worth a visit.

O. C.

Recently bought a 2017 Nissan Leaf from these guys. I first went in over a year ago when Nick took me through everything there was to know about buying an EV for the first time. When we returned earlier this month, Jordan was super helpful and equally knowledgable. They are a great team and the whole process of buying a car was smooth and easy. Highly recommended!

P.

We recently purchased a vehicle from this business. The interaction with all the staff was excellent. They each spent a lot of time with us explaining most of the features of the electric car so that we felt confident to drive it away. They have followed up with emails and messages to ensure things are going well. They have a great company ethos and I am happy to recommend them to anyone. Pam Syme- McKechie

L. H.

The wife and I came here to look at EV car in response to the climb in petrol prices and our vehicle usage needs. Nick was great to talk to and answer our questions in regards to batteries and replacements. They have the ubiquitous Nissan Leaf and a few other newer models. Nice selection considering EVs are still a new thing in the public eye. Parking for the showroom can be a bit tricky.

J.

These guys have such high reviews for a reason, every review I read I found to be my experience and they deserve every bit of it as they certainly work hard for it. You can tell they are passionate about EVs and the benefits they have and they genuinely just want to share that with everyone. Big shout out to Jordan and Nick who helped me for so long to find the right car. No pushy sales, patient and polite. Thank you!

A.

I had a fantastic experience buying a car from EV City. I had no idea about owning an electric car, Jordan was happy to answer all of my questions and give lots of helpful advice. Even checking in after I had bought my car to see if I had any questions. This company goes above and beyond with their customer service.

J. Y.

Jordan and Nick gave fantastic service in our recent purchase of a EV. I was after a particular colour, which they sourced despite many hurdles; at al times they were friendly, helpful and instructive. We couldn't fault their service and would happily recommend EV. An outstanding business in a sometimes less than principled industry. Thanks to you and all staff at EV.

M.

Thanks heaps Rob, Jordan and Team for all your help. Excellent honest service. We appreciate you helping us find a car that meets our needs. Thank you and all the best.

T. H.

Really nice and very helpful people at EV City, not your usual s***** car dealers. Outstanding customer service and super knowledgeable about EVs and PHEV. A pleasure to do business with. Highly recommend to use EV City to buy your next EV or PHEV - you won't be disappointed! Car comes with amazing range of services included!

S.

Very happy with their professional and friendly service. Delivery was super quick too. Thank you David and Jordan.

T.

I had a fantastic experience with EV City. Their customer service went above and beyond expectations. I felt very well looked after and confident in my decision to buy my first EV through them.

L.

EV City Christchurch were amazing! Jordan was always so helpful and friendly and happy to answer any questions. He made sure that we had all the information we needed before buying our EV. We are very happy with our car and highly recommend EV City. Great customer service from all the team who have a genuine interest in zero emissions.

S.

Everyone is very friendly and helpful, they have a great range of cars too. Would highly recommend buying from there if your thinking of buying an electric car

岳.

Got my Nissan Leaf from EV City. I have been dealing with Nick and Jordan. They are knowledgeable and helpful! Had an excellent experience with them! 5 stars!

C. D.

Could not recommend more. Friendly, honest and helpful team. If you're considering an EV I'd strongly recommend going in and having a chat with these guys. You'll get an honest appraisal of the pro's and con's of what's in your budget without any pushiness. We're really pleased with our vehicle and this will be the first place we look when the next purchase comes.

C.

Jordan is a superstar! I love that they work as a team and share commison. Drove my new Nissan leaf over arthurs pass and Jordan checked in throughout the journey! No pushy sale tactics, they know they have a great product and are happy sharing the EV love! Thanks lads!

H.

Knowledgeable staff, go the extra bit to help. Very low pressure sales so not your usual car dealer!! A real pleasure to have purchased there.

M. H.

The guys at EV City were so good to deal with. Always to buy a car from people with a sense of humour. Also appreciated the follow up texts after we bought, a few days later, just to check in and see if there was anything they could do. Perfect for an EV nub who is learning the ropes. Would totally buy from them again - the experience was great!

S.

Great team, very friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable, easy to deal with and great communication. Would be nice to see a bigger range of vehicles on site.

S.

Nick was very knowledgeable and helpful. He didn't try to oversell but provided all the info I needed and convinced me (but not in a pushy way) to go ahead with our purchase. He came across as trustworthy, honest and passionate about EVs with lots of technical knowledge. We love our Nissan Leaf!

M.

The service we received from the EV City team was great. We dealt mainly with Nick and he was so knowledgeable and helpful, really listening to our needs and giving us specific advice to suit. We loved that we never felt pressured into buying and that the process wasn't rushed. Glad that we had the time to consider everything and find the right EV for us. Thanks!

J.

Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. Good selection of vehicles. A special word of thanks to Jordan for his help.

j.

Nothing but praise for EV city. We have been looking for an EV for a while. We did not think we would get so much car for the buck. Husband bought it for me but I now find I have to fight him for the keys!! Excellent care, very knowledgeable and prompt It can be confusing going from an ICE {internal combustion engine} to an EV. Battery health, charging and driving modes instead of petrol consumption miles and timing belts! They had a range of vehicles to show us and to test drive. They sourced a car in our price range, checked it from top to tires and changed the computer system to English. They arranged our pick up by personally going thorough almost every aspect of the vehicle. The vehicle, 6 years old, looked like brand new. Their customer care was exceptional, no wonder this company has so many 5 star reviews. Jue and Gaz

EV City Christchurch was fantastic to deal with. I am 81 and I bought a 2014 Leaf in 2015. I loved it. It was so much better than a petrol car and as most of my travel was around the City it was ideal for me. I had ‘no range anxiety’. I charged, when needed, in my garage at night. In fact I cannot understand why people have two petrol cars. They should get one electric car at least. In reality they should have two because if they do feel ‘range anxiety’ they can a hire car when they want to travel long distances. I have heard a brand new Leaf does 400ks per charge. Now no range anxiety there. Anyway I had a flood and my Leaf was written off so I bought another from EV City Christchurch who were recommended by another electric car driver. It is early days but it works just the same and I have so many different extras with my new 2017 model. I am happy. EV City listened to me and my requirements and delivered. What more can you ask for?

Thanks To Jordan and Nick! As usual, going to ev city is not a waste of time. Bought my first 2016 Leaf in December 20, sold it few days ago to upgrade. It was checked by buyer’s mechanic and was happy to be confirmed that the car was in very good condition. I clearly considered dealing again with evcity or somewhere else. I have been really scared witnessing some kind of electrician « fixing » a car on another dealer’s yard, with obviously random parts of used electrical harnesses, picked up from the back of his car. Considering the included mechanical warranty, the professionalism, their knowledge, kindness, the quality of vehicles bought in Japan, there is no point taking any risk going anywhere else, for (maybe) saving a wee bit of money. I know that, if I want to upgrade again in few years, I will be confident about the car I will put on the market.

A great team to deal with. I was buying from out of town and it was hassle free. Communication was clear. They know their stuff. Did a video call to go over the car. They were happy to answer all my questions. Car arrived as expected in great condition and wife loves it. I send my thanks to the whole team at EV City.

E.

Hardest review I have had to write so far... We brought a BMW i3, great car, absolutely love it, and the service from EV City was great... Unfortunately, not long after purchasing the car, we noticed issues... Long story short, the car had issues with the electrics to do with the main battery, a very rare fault apparently, and parts were required... The parts took forever, and when they finally came and were installed, it did not fix the issue, it actually got worse and more parts were required... Unfortunately, due to covid-19, supply chain issues etc etc, this car was out of action for 6/7 months, we only got to drive it for about 6 weeks... EV City did their best to look after us, never questioned the issue, just took ownership and tried to get it fixed at local BMW shop, EV City were going to pay all repair costs, and they organised another BMW for us to use while ours was at the shop.... Bravo EV City It was not EV City's fault, but due to lousy timing with Covid-19, the repair job just dragged on far to long. In the end, I requested EV City refund the car and they did, I want to personally commend Dave for sorting this issue, which was no fault of their own, just really bad luck. Well done EV City, well done

J.

We had to do our first after hours call out to EV City. Our Leaf didn't want to start. We phoned then after 19:00 and Dave was on scene within 5 minutes. Replaced the battery and waited until my wife safely drove away. Awesome service and thank you so much!

C.

Our initial visit was handled by Dave, who was knowledgeable and not pushy. He assessed our needs and wants and made a suitable recommendation without any attempt to up sell. He was friendly and passionate about wanting to help people switch to EVs. Jordan handled the second visit and sales process. He was also friendly and genuine - an absolute pleasure to deal with. Rob gave clear, practical advice about battery management and was also focussed on helping us get the best out of the car. You guys are a superb team.

S.

I was hesitant buying from the North Island, and not seeing the vehicle in question. Jordan and the team made it very easy to tour the vehicle via Facetime, gave me assurances I could return the vehicle if it was not satisfactory, they went the nth mile to answer every question quickly - this made a big difference with my purchase decision. Keep up the good work EV City!

V.

Traded in my Leaf for a bigger one. All staff I talked to were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and genuinely passionate about EV technology. Offered a range of solutions for home charging options and made sure everything was perfect when I picked up the new Leaf. :)

S. W.

This is the first time we have bought an EV. After a lot of research we chose Dave and his team at EV City. Dave listened to our needs and presented a good range of options to suit our budget. We were very happy with our choice (Nissan Leaf), and the level of service was great. Our Leaf looked immaculate when we picked it up, and Jordan gave us a very thorough introduction on the vehicles features. The team at EV city are friendly, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. I would not hesitate to use them again. Well done :)

A.

Jordan was I credibly helpful and bent over backwards to answer my many questions both before and since the purchase. Although I don’t live in Chch,I was able to have a friend who does test drive the car. Once I made the decision Jordan and team worked fast to get the rego paperwork done, a tow bar installed, and the car delivered to me in Nelson. It’s been smooth sailing, the car is great and I’m very happy to be driving an affordable zero emission car!!!

T.

Really nice and very helpful people at EV City, not your usual s***** car dealers. Outstanding customer service and super knowledgeable about EVs and PHEV. A pleasure to do business with. Highly recommend to use EV City to buy your next EV or PHEV - you won't be disappointed! Car comes with amazing range of services included!

M.

Liked the service and quality that I bought an EV after ates drive

E.

Always a good bunch of guys to deal with. They know all about EVs, second to none!

O.

Recently bought a 2017 Nissan Leaf from these guys. I first went in over a year ago when Nick took me through everything there was to know about buying an EV for the first time. When we returned earlier this month, Jordan was super helpful …

EV City are fantastic. Jordan and Nick know thier stuff and are honest. Loving the new PHEV Outlander, thanks for all your help.

M.

The service we received from the EV City team was great. We dealt mainly with Nick and he was so knowledgeable and helpful, really listening to our needs and giving us specific advice to suit. We loved that we never felt pressured into …

C.

If you're considering buying an EV definitely just pop into EV City and have a chat with the staff. They're a wealth of knowledge, really friendly and ultimately care about the environment and finding the right EV for you as much as you do. It was such a pleasure to buy from them and they made the whole process so easy, I couldn't recommend them more.

H. P.

As the new owners of a fab 62kW Leaf, we had a superb car purchasing experience with the team at EV City that exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend them.

V.

Wonderful experience at EV City. Have been interested in an EV for some time now. Decided to check EV City out and take a look. A look and some questions quickly turned into purchasing my first EV!! The team did an absolutely wonderful job answering any questions clearing and ensured understanding. Couldn't be happier with the purchase. Looking forward to almost never paying for petrol again!

Y.

Excellent customer service especially by Nick & Jordan. Great knowledge of EV's and no pushy tactics. They were honest about the range and everything in general. 10/10 service. Would love to deal with them everytime. Definitely recommend them.

J.

We had a fantastic experience dealing with EV City. They were a great team and answered all of our questions before our purchase. Part of the reason for selecting EV City was the one year battery and mechanical guarantee and ongoing service regarding any future questions we may have.

M.

David was a mine of information regarding electric cars. Didn’t feel like we were being pressured to buy at all, but his enthusiasm was too good to resist! He made sure that we were matched with the right EV for our needs, and the staff have looked after us well. Would highly recommend EV City for anyone considering buying an EV.

L.

I can pretty much echo what everyone else has written. Jordan and Nick allowed us lots of time to look and test drive the cars, with no pressure to buy. I found them very knowledgable and passionate about the products they sell. I would not hesitate to recommend buying a car from them, as I did.

R.

The team at ev city was fantastic to deal with, they gave me plenty of time for test driving on my first visit and applied no pressure at all when I decided not to buy at that time. When I returned to purchase they were again helpful and I have bought a great Leaf. I thoroughly recommend them to all without hesitation

S.

Great experience. Jordan and Nick are passionate and knowledgeable. Not your usual car salesman experience. Recommend them.

M.

Dave and the crew at EV City have well and truly exceeded my expectations. A month after buying a Nissan Leaf from them i have yet to find an inaccuracy in the information they gave me prior to buying it. In fact, it's a little bit better than they told me. If you want to buy a car from people who are trustworthy (and fun) I highly recommend a visit to EV city. Like most purchasers these days I did some serious internet searching before buying, especially price comparisons. I soon realised I was being offered very good pricing on a vehicle in absolutely mint condition. The follow-up has been great as well as all my questions are answered factually. Great people. Great product.

G.

A few months ago (before lockdown) when I started thinking about an EV, I visited EV City and met Jordan who guided me through all of the relevant info I needed - there wasn't any pressure at all to buy. So, after my own research, some tyre kicking around town and a generous trade-in for our petrol car we drove off in a lovely 2017 Leaf from EV City. If you are new to EV's, then I recommend the team for the whole experience.

E. F.

We decided it was time to go electric. The guys at EV Cars were knowledgeable , friendly and happy to answer all our questions. We left in a rather nice Nissan Leaf and only good feelings about the team.

O.

Above and beyond. That's the EV City team in a nutshell. Not only is their knowledge exceptional, they're also genuine electric car enthusiasts with very real excitement about emissions-free tech. They pulled out the stops to get me into my Leaf, including being cool (calm and collected) about letting me take her on a test drive while being on an L licence, and sitting in while I drove her home. They're the experts, and warm, lovely folks to boot. If you're at all interested in driving electric, EV City is your go-to. You'll see.

E.

Professional, enthusiastic service from E V City made distance buying stress-free and even exciting.

J.

"Helpful" and "cheerful": these are the best words I can think of to describe the people at EV City. Yes, they know their stuff, yes they are professionals, yes they take time to understand their customers, and yes their customer service is good - but it is their radiant, optimistic cheerfulness that I appreciated most of all!

A.

Outstanding team to deal with. Jordan went way beyond what we would have expected. No pushie car sales men here. Just super friendly and brilliant knowledge.

A.

We found Dave and his team to be awesome. So knowledgeable on all things EV. No pressure sales, felt totally comfortable in the relaxed environment. Even if you're not ready to convert, they are worth having a chat to to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

A.

Let’s just put it like this. If you are curious about Electric vehicles, are thinking about buying an EV or are about to buy an EV and you don’t talk to Dave or Nick at EV City, then you just made one of the biggest mistakes of your life. The friendliness, knowledge, warmth and genuiness of this team was a complete breath of fresh air. I’d give them 6 stars if Google would let me.

C.

David and his team were absolutely great in helping me find a really nice car for a fair price. After buying the car I discovered a slight rattle in the back of the car. They took my concerns seriously and gave me a loan car whilst they fixed. We plan to buy another car from them next month to replace our other car as non electric suddenly feels so outdated.

M.

Dave was very helpful and satisfactorily answered all our questions by email or over the 'phone. He ensured that the vehicle we purchased was delivered in a timely manner. I look forward to meeting him in person next time I am in Christchurch.

B.

EV City are fantastic. Jordan and Nick know thier stuff and are honest. Loving the new PHEV Outlander, thanks for all your help.

C.

bought a PHEV. Awesome car! All converted to English

S.

Great team, I interacted with pretty much everybody through the process of purchasing a car and everybody was awesome. I think this is the first time in my life I have actually enjoyed the process of choosing and purchasing a car. Thanks Jordan, Dave and team :)

J.

Fantastic, welcoming and knowledgable service. Very happy!

N.

Excellent experience, helpful team, great car.

p.

These folks are very active in the EV community, and are extremely helpful..I tried to take a minor problem with my Leaf to Nissan without success, EV City spent 10 minutes helping me with no grouching. They'll be my first stop when I'm ready to buy.

R.

They genuinely love what they sell and are happy to explain how it works and help you work through your concerns. They’ll know the answer as someone else will have had the same concern. Love my Leaf from EV City

W. S.

Steller customer service experience. Dave really cares about his products and his customers. He's about helping people, not just about the sales and I reccomend EV city to anyone looking for an EV or for more information.

M.

Liked the service and quality that I bought an EV after ates drive

A.

Quality cars, fair prices, great service! Thank you Nick for all the time you gave me to answer my numerous questions. We love the car, it's as good as brand new, and I think it might now only cost us approximately 2c per km instead of 15c per km in the old ICE family wagon and we don't create any pollution!

D.

We recently purchased a company vehicle from EV City, the team were great to deal and seriously take after purchase support/training to a new level. Thanks heaps!
