Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Practical and well built interior
Potentially long warranty
Comfortable and quiet to drive

Cons
Range is nothing special
Some rivals can charge faster
Rivals have more-user friendly infotainment

By: 
whatcar.com

Pros
Handling is spry,
nicely-trimmed interior,
compliant ride.

Cons
Less range than rival EVs,
doesn't offer the fastest charging tech,
steer-by-wire system takes getting used to.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Cool exterior design,
zippy on-road personality,
spacious and nicely styled cabin.

Cons
Limited front-trunk space,
infotainment system is more retro than futuristic.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Quick acceleration and sporty handling
Plenty of room in the front and back
Compatible with the latest high-rate charging stations
Styling is sleeker than a hatchback and not as bulky as a true SUV

Cons
Not as much maximum cargo space as other electric SUVs
Front and rear visibility isn't the best
Underwhelming range in Edmunds' real-world testing
Operation of some driver assist features could be smoother
