Full review

What it is like to live with

From 100% to 20%, plan around 350 km at motorway speed, 400–450 km in mixed Portuguese use. It is familiar rather than exotic, but exceptionally complete.

What works

603 km WLTP and fast charging

Best software and route planning

Ventilated seats, premium audio, rear screen

What irritates

Costs €8,130 net more than Standard

No CarPlay or driver display

Service and body-repair experiences vary

Family + dog

A natural fit

2,138 L stated total. For a large dog, the usable shape, underfloor space and luggage separation matter more than the headline litre figure.

Trips + camping

Built for long Europe runs

257 km claimed in 15 min. Home charging covers normal Portuguese use; motorway efficiency and the charging curve decide how relaxed France or Italy feels.
