Caralogy Analysis

Tailored to this vehicle?

Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Optimised urban and peri-urban trips with no charging to manage.

Less suitable for

Home charging access not leveraged. If you have a dedicated outlet, a PHEV would allow daily commutes in pure electric mode.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Combined consumption, the Bmw 520d Touring (1st with 4.5 L/100) takes the lead. If the priority is Tank range, the Bmw 520d Touring (1st with 1467 km) takes the lead.
