WLTP is the official EU test cycle; real-world figures are usually a bit lower. See the guide on WLTP versus real-world consumption.

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.
Profile · 64 kWh (SX2, 2023+)
Compact electric crossover, second generation. 514 km WLTP, 65.4 kWh. The DC charging peak at 102 kW is lower than at some competitors; a 10-80% charge therefore takes relatively long (manufacturer figure). Braked towing weight 750 kg.
Profile · II (AZS1, 2022+)
Compact EV SUV; the second generation came in 2022 with a larger battery (68.3 kWh Long Range, NMC) and around 440 km WLTP (manufacturer figure, indicative). DC charging up to about 92 kW. A smaller 51 kWh pack is available below the Long Range. Indicative starting price for the Standard Range, check the official configurator for the current figure per version.
