Buying decision

EvCompass verdict

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

A 16.7 kWh usable battery at 176 Wh/km gives 95 km of real range. Two seats and a 260 l boot do not try to suggest a broader use.

AC charging is 4.6 kW and takes 4 h 30 min, while 1,115 kg of kerb weight remains part of this very specific calculation.

Best suited to

Best suited to using two seats, a 260 l boot and 95 km of range in the shortest possible format.

Home charging

Chargers matched to this car

Live home AC products ranked by how closely their power matches the car's onboard charger.

The car accepts up to 4.6 kW AC — a higher-power station will not charge it beyond that limit.

Ownership costs

What it costs to use this car

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

Default assumptions

Calculation assumptions and sources

Applied settings

15,000 km per year · 70% charged at home · 30% in public DC · G11 — flat rate · All networks

Real-world consumption

Mild weather: 152 Wh/km

Cold weather: 209 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.
