Best EV for transporting a mobility scooter?

I have a 2015 Toyota Auris Hybrid which I consider to be the best car I have ever owned. My wife's mobility scooter, when dismantled, fits the boot perfectly. I don't do particularly long journeys and do about 6,000-7,000 miles per year. Is there an EV which will be as comfortable, reliable and as functional as the Auris?

Start your search by visiting an MG dealer. MG makes some excellent no-nonsense electric cars with long warranties. The MG 5 estate has recently been updated and could be a great option for transporting your wife's mobility scooter. Alternatively, the new Kia Niro EV is a little more expensive but very versatile and an excellent electric car.
