I've almost had it a year and it's truly powerful on the road, very stable — the driver aids make me feel super safe. In the city it moves around very well and the fuel economy is notable. I use it both on highways and in town and it's genuinely useful.

600 km real-world range in summer; handles me — I'm just over 190 cm and 100 kg.

Better looking than the ID.4 and often available at a really good price.
