What Owners Say
PositiveOwners Love
- Owners and enthusiasts call it the most engaging electric car to drive, with sharp steering and handling that hides its weight.
- The simulated gearshifts (N e-shift) and engine sounds are widely praised as fun rather than a gimmick.
- Fast 800-volt charging makes a 10-80% stop about 18 minutes, which owners say matters more than range.
Watch Out For
- Efficiency is poor: owners report 2.2 to 2.7 miles per kWh, or about 190 miles in winter and 220 to 235 in summer.
- Tyres wear fast when the performance is used; one owner's first set lasted about 12,000 miles at around 250 pounds a corner.
- It is big and heavy for a performance car, with a wide turning circle.
Owner Tips
- Budget for tyres and brakes, and ask how the car has been driven.
- Use the satnav to precondition the battery before a rapid charger.
- In cold weather the battery takes time to warm up before full power is available.
