EvCompassHow we calculate →
Among large SUVs, 265 litres is well below the 570-litre median. With every seat occupied, a longer trip calls for less luggage or a trailer.
Cold weather leaves 330 km from the 440 km real-world range, while a year of energy costs about PLN 4,725.
The EL8 makes up some ground on the road: its 240 kW DC peak is above the 207 kW median, and a 10-to-80% charge takes 21 minutes. The family also includes a version with a smaller battery and shorter range. Consumption of 205 Wh/km is close to the 218.5 Wh/km median for large SUVs.

Best suited to
A trailer over 2,000 kg is ruled out because the EL8 limit is below the 2,225 kg median for large SUVs.
