If you’re looking for an alternative to the Volkswagen ID.3 or MINI Cooper, the retro-futuristic ‘03’ from Chinese brand ORA is well worth a look.
The 03 was previously known as the ‘Funky Cat’ until a relaunch in 2024 brought with it a new naming convention.
It’s a battery-powered hatchback that’s well-equipped as standard, boasts a plush interior, and has a range of up to 260 miles between charges.

There are two different trim levels with the ORA 03 - the entry-level PURE+ and range-topping PRO+.
The PURE+ variants feature a 48 kWh battery which provides power of 171 PS and a 0-62mph time of 8.3 seconds.
The PRO+ ORA 03, however, gets a larger 63 kWh unit which boosts the range up to a maximum of 260 miles between trips to the plug.
The ORA 03 also supports 100 kW DC rapid charging, which can replenish the energy to 80% in around 42 minutes.
All models feature, as standard, a 10.25-inch infotainment screen with sat nav, adaptive cruise control with lane centring, wireless phone charging, and a 360-degree surround view camera.
The PRO+ variants add creature comforts such as heated, ventilated and massaging seats, auto park assist, and front and rear parking sensors.
The zero emissions ORA 03 will also make sense as a company car lease, attracting a low Benefit in Kind (BIK) tax rate.
