EvCompass verdict

EvCompassHow we calculate →

Against the 390 km median for segment C SUVs, a 275 km range means more frequent stops on a longer journey. Its 120 kW DC peak falls below the 150 kW median, and a 10–80% session takes 26 min.

Winter range is 199 km against 275 km in real driving. Consumption of 171 Wh/km remains at class level against a 181 Wh/km median, and energy costs PLN 3,899 a year.

A 750 kg towing limit against the 1,200 kg median suits a light trailer, but not heavier combinations. The family includes a version with a larger battery and longer range; that one fits longer journeys better.

Best suited to

It suits shorter daily journeys with charging after returning home; regular long-distance trips with a trailer call for more range and a higher towing limit.

What to consider

  • A 275 km real-world range against the 390 km median for segment C SUVs.
  • A 750 kg towing limit against the 1,200 kg median in this class.
