Surprise us! Tell us something surprising about this car?
I am yet to find that out!

I think by the time I am getting my next car there will be a huge number of options. Mainly a car with the same quality but double the range and faster charging will be my dream coming true.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
I don’t have a home charging unit.

 

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
N/A

 

What public charging networks do you use? Would you recommend them to others and why?
GeniePoint and Instavolt – both work perfectly fine at 50kWh, however Instavolt is more expensive. Used IONITY twice and wasn’t a great experience, slower than the 50 ones despite claiming 350kwh speed and way more expensive.
