3 · Everyday experience

What is the FOR ME like to drive and use every day?

Only current English content and deterministic published facts are shown. Dimensions are not treated as proof of ride comfort.

Driving & performance

Typical performance is stronger than most comparable cars.

Published power, acceleration and drivetrain show how performance changes across trims; they do not replace an untranslated road-test verdict.

Published evidence

  • Published power spans 700 kW across current trims.
  • Published 0–100 km/h times span 3.3 sec 0–100 km/h.
  • Drivetrain choices: All-wheel drive.
  • Acceleration performance comparable to supercars
  • Careful control is required for daily driving throttle response
  • Rapid acceleration, comparable to supercars; robust chassis, confident in cornering.
  • Leading for typical maximum power across 10 series
  • Leading for typical 0–100 km/h across 9 series

Cabin comfort

Comfort equipment varies by trim.

This conclusion uses only direct seat, suspension and climate equipment. Body dimensions are not treated as proof of ride comfort.

Published evidence

  • Second-row functions — Available on some trims.
  • Suspension — Standard across all trims.
  • Climate control — Standard across all trims.
