What happens when you take one of the smallest electric cars on sale and drive it on a UK motorway?
In this video we take the Microlino on a real-world London commute that includes high-speed motorway driving, heavy lorry traffic and proper urban congestion. This isn’t a gentle city test. It’s a genuine “should this even be here?” experiment.
We test:
What it’s like driving a Microlino on the M1
How it feels surrounded by HGVs and large SUVs
Real-world range during a motorway-heavy journey
Stability, noise and driver confidence at speed
Whether a tiny electric car can handle a serious commute
The Microlino is designed as a compact urban EV. But many owners won’t just use it in city centres. So we wanted to know: can it realistically cope with Britain’s busiest roads?
Is it brave? Is it stupid? Or is it actually more capable than it looks?
Watch to see whether this tiny electric car survives the motorway.
