Buying decision

EvCompass verdict

The main arguments drawn from approved data and the EvCompass editorial summary.

98.9 kWh and 190 Wh/km combine for 520 km of real range, while 710 Nm takes 2,555 kg to 100 km/h in 4.2 s.

A 10 to 80% charge takes 13 min at a 403 kW peak. The 543 l boot and 2,250 kg towing capacity add utility to the performance brief.

Best suited to

It earns its place when 4.2 s to 100 km/h has to coexist with 520 km of real range.

Strong points

  • The 403 kW charging peak is higher than the 145 kW median among F-segment liftbacks.
  • The 2,250 kg towing capacity is higher than the group median of 0 kg.

What to consider

  • The 2,555 kg kerb weight is higher than the 2,262 kg median in this group.

What it costs to use this car

Energy, scheduled servicing and seasonal tyres, priced from one transparent set of assumptions.

Calculation assumptions and sources

Applied settings

Real-world consumption

Mild weather: 166 Wh/km

Cold weather: 225 Wh/km

Cold-weather share: 44.2% from the 1991–2020 climate normals, source read on September 13, 2026. IMGW-PIB source

The source does not state whether these figures include charging losses; no additional loss factor is applied.

Tyre ageing without mileage is excluded; seasonal changeovers are counted twice per year.

Home tariff

G11 — flat rate: PLN 1.10/kWh · source read on September 13, 2026 · Poradnia OZE; assembled from URE-approved PGE 2026 tariffs

Indicative reconstruction: PGE Obrót energy, PGE Dystrybucja variable distribution and variable statutory charges from the 2026 tariffs were summed net and increased by 23% VAT. Fixed monthly fees are excluded. The result is below the shared G11 range of PLN 1.18–1.32/kWh because it includes variable items only; published comparisons may include other charges or assume a different billing profile.
