4.7 / 10 expert score

Overview

Retro-futuristic E-GMP crossover with 800V charging and a spacious lounge interior that feels more premium than its price suggests.

Driving Experience

Smooth, quiet, and quick off the line. Not a sports EV, but composed and confident in daily use and highway cruising.

Charging & Range

800V architecture enables ultra-fast DC charging. Real-world range is competitive, though winter and highway speeds reduce EPA figures.

Pros

  • Ultra-fast 800V DC charging
  • Distinctive retro-futuristic design
  • Spacious lounge-style interior
  • Strong standard safety tech
  • Smooth and quiet ride

Cons

  • Ride can feel floaty on some roads
  • No frunk on all trims
  • Infotainment learning curve for some users
  • Real-world highway range below EPA in winter

Verdict

Best EV for design-conscious buyers who prioritize charging speed and cabin space over sporty handling.

Ownership Cost

Install Level 2 home charging if possible. Use DC fast charging for road trips only to preserve battery health. Plan software updates through dealer or OTA when available.

Charging
