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.

I have owned and worked on Ford products for years and I am now driving an 07 Explorer 4.0 liter. 1 transmission and multiple soft parts and switches >300.000.
