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 · III (2020-, 42 kWh)
Electric A-segment hatchback on a dedicated EV platform (no petrol variant of this generation). The large 42 kWh pack reaches around 320 km WLTP (manufacturer figure, indicative); a smaller 24 kWh pack is more limited. DC charging up to about 85 kW. City car with a small boot. Indicative from-price, check the official configurator.
Profile · J01 Cooper SE (2024)
Fully new electric generation (J01), built on an EV platform developed with Great Wall. The Cooper SE has about 218 hp and a 49 kWh net battery. WLTP around 400 km (manufacturer figure, indicative); winter range is lower according to owners (public forums, not measured by us). Not rated for towing.
