The car is simply fantastic. The torque is unbelievable. Acceleration is mesmerizing for an SUV. The interior has a premium feel. The only thing that would make it better is a longer EV range. Otherwise, perfect.

Not a really functioning vehicle. High fuel consumption and constant electronic problems, the brakes are a joke.
