Common questions
Best for buyers who want an affordable, characterful compact EV for city and suburban use rather than headline range or performance.
Best fits include: City and suburban drivers, First-time EV buyers, and Retro-styling fans.
The main caveats are these: The 409 km WLTP figure drops in cold weather and at motorway speeds — real-world range is closer to 300 km; and A single front motor and 150 hp keep it comfortable rather than quick.
Expect roughly 305–360 km in everyday mixed driving (our estimate from the certified figure). The certified figure is 409 km on the WLTP cycle.
