The verdict

What's good

  • Retro-tinged styling gives it real personality
  • Charges quickly enough for genuine long trips
  • Nimble and easy to place in tight city streets
  • Undercuts most similarly sized electric rivals

What's not

  • Rear space is tight for a family car
  • Smaller battery version limits weekend range
  • Shares so much with its Renault sibling
  • Boot is modest even by supermini standards

The engine

Single-Motor Electric

Single Front-Mounted Electric Motor

A single front motor drawn from the Renault-Nissan alliance’s small-EV toolkit, geared for city responsiveness and relaxed motorway cruising rather than outright pace.

Built on the AmpR Small platform shared with the Renault 5, developed in Europe specifically for affordable compact electric cars.
