It’s a Hyundai Kona-sized small SUV with a 120kW/300Nm single electric motor up front, 52kWh (useable) battery, 18kWh/100km energy use and a claimed 329km range (WLTP). It appears the model sells, or has sold, in France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain and Israel. But beneath the shine, I’m afraid, remains excrement.
