AI Overview

Urban commuting is flexible and the handling is solid, but high-speed acceleration and trunk space are shortcomings.

  • German chassis tuning, leading in handling quality among peers; But the suspension is too hard and bumpy when passing speed bumps.
  • wheelbase 2765 mm The front row space is spacious; The legs in the back row are good, and the head is moderate.
  • CLTC endurance 451 km Tested approximately 350-400 km。

Fits these scenarios

Daily commute

Strong

Long-distance travel

Strong

In long-distance highway scenarios, German-style chassis tuning, leading handling quality in its class; note that the suspension is firm, causing bumps when passing speed bumps.

Family use

Strong

No home charging

Strong

In the scenario without home charging, the electricity consumption per 100 kilometers is 13.4, indicating good energy efficiency; however, it should be noted that the actual range may vary significantly from CLTC.

Winter use

Strong

In the winter low-temperature scenario, the electricity consumption per 100 kilometers is 13.4, indicating good energy efficiency; however, it should be noted that the actual range may vary significantly from CLTC.

Driving enjoyment

Strong

Low running cost

Strong

In low-cost car usage scenarios, power consumption per 100 kilometers is 13.4, energy consumption performance is good; note that the actual range differs significantly from the CLTC claimed.

Weekend trips

Strong

In the weekend travel scenario, the seat cushion is relatively thick, making long journeys less tiring; however, it should be noted that lateral support is weak.
