What Owners Say
PositiveOwners Love
- Impressive fast charging capability with 800V architecture enables 10-80% charge in 18-23 minutes at rapid chargers, significantly faster than most competitors
- Excellent real-world range of 250-280 miles in typical conditions with larger 84kWh battery, suitable for long-distance travel and daily commuting
- Striking, modern design with high-quality interior materials and attention to detail that rivals premium brands like Audi and Mercedes
Watch Out For
- Significant real-world efficiency variance depending on driving conditions and weather—motorway speeds and winter temperatures reduce range to 2.2-3.3 mi/kWh versus summer efficiency of 3.7-4.2 mi/kWh
- Infotainment system lags compared to best-in-class alternatives with excessive menu diving required; navigation-based battery preconditioning not yet implemented
- Overly intrusive driver assistance features with constant speed-limit beeping and lane-keep assist causing steering shimmy; many owners immediately disable these systems
Owner Tips
- Choose AWD dual-motor variant over single-motor RWD; the 226hp base model feels underpowered despite adequate 0-62 time, while dual-motor delivers significantly better performance and wet-weather stability
- Select 19-inch wheels over 20-inch for noticeably better ride quality and efficiency; avoid 21-22 inch options that increase road noise and reduce comfort
- Use 'A Better Route Planner' app for accurate long-distance trip planning accounting for weather, temperature, and terrain; apply winter driving rule of thumb multiplying WLTP range by 0.67 for realistic worst-case estimates
