The car runs fully electric so there is no fuel to buy. Charge times run about 9 hours 35 minutes on a 7.2 kW Level 2 unit for a full charge. DC fast charging reaches 80 percent in around 54 to 75 minutes depending on the charger power. Real-world range sits between the lower 39 kWh pack and the longer 64 kWh pack.
Servicing needs are light with no oil changes. Intervals focus on tire rotation, brake fluid, cabin filter and coolant checks at regular points such as every 12 months or 15 000 km. Battery coolant and reduction gear oil come later in the schedule. The 5-year unlimited warranty and 8-year battery warranty give solid cover while the car is still under factory protection.
Safety starts with a 5-star Euro NCAP score. Every model carries advanced airbags, stability control, autonomous emergency braking, lane keeping and tire pressure monitoring. Higher grades add blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert and parking sensors. The structure uses high-strength steel for impact protection.
Living with the car means simple upkeep thanks to regenerative braking that eases brake wear. Keep the battery within recommended charge levels and follow the multi-point inspections to maintain range and reliability over time.
