Pros Practical interior, brisk acceleration with upgraded powertrain, nicely-trimmed interior.
Cons Third row isn't very roomy, battery takes up some cargo space, fussy infotainment system.

Cons Premium price Lower range than most rivals Third row is tiny Infotainment screens’ learning curve Top active safety costs extra
Pros Handsome styling, decent EV driving range, smart infotainment tech.
Cons Disappointing road manners, powertrain runs out of steam at higher speeds, front seats could be more supportive.
