  • Love ‘charging at home’ convenience
  • Love the comfort.

 

Negatives – List 3 or more things that you really don’t like about this car.

  • Had to take the back cover in the boot out, it was pointless
  • Unable to open the frunk without getting out, opening the passenger door and pulling the lever twice
  • Not really the car but having lots of different apps/cards and networks for charging is a pain.

 

Have you experienced any faults with the car? If so, what have they been?
Only once there was a loud screeching noise and the screen went fuzzy, turned it off and on. Was fine then. Another time the one-pedal drive stopped working, felt dangerous, had to stop and turn the car on and off. Then it was fine.

 

What are the standout tech features of the car?
Love the screen and Apple CarPlay, love walking up and the car opening with the puddle lights, love the remote start to condition the car and love all the sensors to help stop me scraping into things!

 

Surprise us! Tell us something people wouldn’t readily know about this car.
Being able to lock and unlock the car with the code on the side. And no handles!

What car are you interested in next and why?
None, love my current one.

Rolec – it was recommended by the EV installers. It didn’t work well at first but it’s great. You can use the app to schedule when it charges. Does the job.
