Great car, everything I need. It has lots of buttons and options that Ill never use, but the basics of it work well as a point a to b electric vehicle. Jun 01, 2024

Compact cars are usually cheaply made. Not this one. It is smooth, quiet with no sqeaks inside. The doors are heavy and make a solid thud when closed. Smart cruise is not quite as good as Ye 291 lb ft of torque makes this pretty quick too especially for only having 1 electric motor. Very efficient and has great real world range. Can easily get claimed 239 miles and more if you dont floor it all the time. Oct 26, 2023

We absolutely love this car. The only thing I’d change, and it’s the reason I’m not giving five stars, the center console for drinks is a design disaster. Let’s see how many drinks get spilled trying to reach into the awkward tight space. Practically have to lift near the lids. Functional failure. Apr 04, 2022
