It's smaller than the ID.4 so fits in our small garage, great turning radius which is nice in the city, and physical buttons for the most important stuff like climate and media. It can tow up to 900kg and supports a roof rack.
YMMV and such.

- Intermernet 2y agoHonestly sounds like it's near the sweet spot. Seems to be available in Australia as well. I'm not sure why I haven't seen any on the road!
- magicalhippo 2y agoHere in Norway they haven't been very aggressive with the advertisements, which I guess "helps". Unlike the Kia Nero EV and Hyundai Kona, two similar competitors, the Megane e-Tech was designed to be 100% BEV from the start, which I think is advantageous for an EV. I'd say worth a look.
