EvCompass verdict

EvCompassHow we calculate →

Its 505 km real-world range exceeds the segment E SUV median of 450 km, but winter leaves about 380 km. That reserve lengthens the leg between stops.

Annual energy costs about PLN 4,682, and each 100 km costs PLN 30.8. Consumption of 202 Wh/km remains close to the segment E SUV median of 209 Wh/km.

Its 2,200 kg towing limit exceeds the segment E SUV median of 1,800 kg, so this trim covers heavier trailers than an average model. The family also has larger-battery versions with shorter or longer range.

Best suited to

For a family with a caravan that drives far and wants short charging stops along the way.
