The key novelty of the 2026 model is the increased capacity of the traction battery, which has increased the electric-only range from 55 to 130 km (81 miles). The powertrain is based on a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with 111 hp, and the sole electric motor outputs 218 hp. The car accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 7.56 seconds, with an average consumption of 3.75 l/100 km, and a maximum range of 1,420 km (882 miles).
