In one word I could say the car is really awesome for people like me.
The vehicle is quite good and the performance of the car is also nice and the overall performance of the car fits with me really well. I find it really comfortable to drive and also when I sit as a passenger there is a lot of leg space which makes me really comfortable for me and the mileage of the car is also really good.

Great vehicle with some downsides.
Great performance, but lacks in terms of range. Charging can be an issue if you aren't a home owner. These cars were not built for northern winter. Other than that, it has all the bells and whistles and is good for daily commutes if you are an inner-city driver!
