Ranking #04 · 2026 · 4 models · Verified data
En bref
Par Christophe F. — Electric mobility expert ·
The manufacturer's figure is one thing. The real figure is this: with two children buckled in, the dog in the back and weekend luggage, WLTP range easily drops 25–30% on the E411 in January. And the 421-litre boot that looked fine on the spec sheet becomes too tight on Friday evening.
This ranking answers one precise question: which EV truly lets a Belgian family live normally — daily school run, weekend in the Ardennes, Belgian Coast trip in summer — without painful compromises?
In practice, two things make the difference in real life: space (boot + seats) and real-world range on the E411. Price comes next. Charging is the least concern — because with 400 real km, you rarely need to charge en route for a Belgian trip.

The manufacturer's figure is one thing. The real figure is this: sorted by composite score (space 35% · real range 30% · net price 25% · charging 10%). Verified manufacturer data .
With two children buckled in and the dog in the back, the "Boot" column becomes the most important. Real-world range is what remains after subtracting the motorway, cold and heating.

Real-world range = WLTP × 0.78 (ADAC Realer Verbrauch, 2024 — winter conditions, motorway 130 km/h, < 5°C). Official BE configurator price, March 2026, no options.
On the E411 in January, full boot, 90% starting charge. That is the test that matters, not WLTP on a test track.
≈ 130 km (Bastogne) · 260 km round trip
All 4 models cover the round trip without an intermediate charge, even in winter. The Enyaq (369 km available at 90%) makes it with 109 km to spare.

≈ 110 km (De Panne) · 220 km round trip
An easy trip for all 4. In summer with AC, range rises to 85–90% of WLTP. The VW ID.4 covers Brussels–Coast–Brussels with 180 km to spare.
All pass ✓
≈ 25–45 km/day · Overnight charge (230V outlet)
A standard 230V outlet recharges 150 km overnight. For 40 km/day, an EV fully recharges every evening in 8 h. Zero range anxiety in daily use.
