Who it suits

Families who want a premium electric SUV with all-wheel drive and the option of seven seats. The 66.5 kWh battery gives up to 423 km claimed, it makes 215 kW, and the battery warranty is 8 years / 160 000 km.

Who should look elsewhere

Buyers who want fast charging or a big boot with seven seats. DC charging is limited to 100 kW, and the boot shrinks from 495 to 465 litres with the third row, which is a R22 000 extra. The figures come from the 2022 launch, so check the current spec.
