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 · CV, facelift (2024)
Electric crossover by Kia, related to the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and built on the same high-voltage architecture (800 volt), which allows fast charging up to 258 kW. 2024 facelift with a larger 84 kWh battery. WLTP range 528 km for the rear-wheel-drive Long Range (manufacturer figure). That charging peak is high; a 10-80% charge takes about 18 minutes (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). Indicative from-price; check the official configurator for the current figure.
