Exterior styling and aerodynamics receive consistent positive notes (27 mentions) for a sleek, slippery design and framing details like frameless doors and distinctive lighting, while driving and efficiency (26 mentions) are praised for quiet cruising, composed ride and excellent efficiency/range figures reported by multiple reviewers. Overall these strengths are repeatedly mentioned across many reviews and aspects, indicating broad agreement on interior quality, tech, charging and aerodynamic efficiency.
Criticisms cluster around practicality and some interior compromises (75 mentions), with reviewers calling out reduced or awkward rear space in places, raised boot floors for battery packaging, reliance on touchscreen controls and touch sliders, some cheap or scratchy plastics, and a panoramic roof that lacks a sunshade. Several reviewers also flagged value and pricing concerns (14 mentions), calling the car pricey or easy to option up, and a minority noted technology or usability issues (13 mentions) such as small keys, limited head‑up/display or incomplete smartphone integration on certain specs. Exterior and driving critiques appear less frequent but include subjective dislikes of certain styling details and a firmer, less engaging ride for those seeking a sporty feel; a few reviews remind that some commentary stems from pre‑production cars so features may change.
