Families who want a large, quiet electric luxury SUV. It has a 108.4 kWh battery, 616 km claimed (about 430 km at highway speed), all-wheel drive, 265 kW, a 645 litre boot with five seats, and DC charging up to 200 kW.
Who should look elsewhere
Buyers wanting the lowest running cost or a confirmed battery warranty, which we have not found. It uses about 20.5 kWh per 100 km, and at around R2.73 million the price is far above most electric SUVs. The figures come from the 2023 launch.
