What it is like to live with
In real use it is efficient, practical and easy to road-trip. The lasting irritations are ride quality, road noise and the minimalist controls—not the electric drivetrain.
What works
Huge, dog-friendly storage
Excellent efficiency and software
Supercharger integration
What irritates

Occasional rattles
Basic cabin and no ventilated seats
Trips + camping
Capable, with trade-offs
10–80% ≈27 min. Home charging covers normal Portuguese use; motorway efficiency and the charging curve decide how relaxed France or Italy feels.
