Buying decision

EvCompass verdict

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

115 kWh of battery and 215 Wh/km of consumption add up to 535 km of real-world range.

An 800 V architecture supports a 300 kW DC charging peak, so 10 to 80% takes 26 min. A 2,800 kg kerb weight and 0 kg of braked towing capacity mark where this van's limits sit.

Best suited to

It makes sense when both space and fast charging matter at once: 795 l of boot and 26 min from 10 to 80%.

Strong points

  • Real range of 535 km is higher than the 235 km median among segment N vans.
  • A 300 kW DC charging peak is higher than the 101 kW median among segment N vans.
  • Consumption of 215 Wh/km is lower than the 257 Wh/km median among segment N vans.

What to consider

  • No braked towing capacity: 0 kg against the group median of 1,000 kg.
  • A kerb weight of 2,800 kg is higher than the group median of 2,161 kg.
  • The 795 l boot is smaller than the group median of 819 l.

Real-world consumption

Mild weather: 192 Wh/km

Cold weather: 253 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.

Method: we convert the car's baseline consumption and real-world range through fixed profile factors, adjusted for body style, weight, AWD and heat pump when those fields are available. Bands show simulation uncertainty, not a guaranteed result.
