Obviously not a tow car but we are considering one as a car for my wife. Just wondering if anyone from the wide spectrum of  caravan club members had any experience of the model.

We have had a test drive and really liked it, the only complaint was that I hit my head on the tailgate when it was open but it is always good to hear other opinions.

No rush for an answer because it is an 8 month wait for the car.

I was going to ask if you had considered the Kia E-Niro which is basically the same car but with a longer warranty? I am on my fourth Kia car (none of them EV's) so I suppose I could be a bit biased? Having said that all the reviews I have seen on the E-Niro seem good.

My brother has the Kia equivalent and is well pleased with it.

The Kia Stonic is the direct equivalent of the Hyundai Kona, CY, but I don’t believe it is available as an EV.

The Niro, as mentioned by DK, and Soul are much the same as the Kona in terms of motors. The Niro is lower in the body and the Soul, well……😳
