Who it suits

Budget buyers who want a small electric hatchback with more range than the entry version. It has a 43.9 kWh battery, 70 kW of power, five seats and a claimed 430 km on the generous CLTC test.

Who should look elsewhere

Anyone expecting 430 km on the road. CLTC figures run well above real-world range, so budget for much less, especially at highway speed. Charging speed, boot size and the battery warranty are not confirmed, and our Performance row may match a specific SA trim, so check which one you are quoted.
