Who it suits

Large families who can plug in at home and want a seven-seat plug-in hybrid people mover. It has a 25.5 kWh battery for about 106 to 108 km of electric range, 274 kW, 0 to 100 km/h in about 8.8 seconds and a battery warranty of 8 years / 150 000 km.

Who should look elsewhere

Buyers who want fast charging or boot details, which we have not found. At around R1.5 million it costs a lot, and the electric range test is not stated.
