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 · SK3 (2024+)
Compact electric crossover on a 400V architecture, first generation. WLTP range around 605 km for the Long Range with 81.4 kWh battery (manufacturer figure). DC charging peak around 128 kW, lower than on the 800V models EV6/Ioniq 5, which makes fast charging take longer. Braked towing weight 1,000 kg. Indicative from-price; check the official configurator for the current figure.
Profile · ZE2, derde generatie (2025+)
Third-generation Leaf (ZE2), now an SUV-coupé on the CMF-EV platform of the Alliance (shared with Ariya). Swaps CHAdeMO for CCS Combo and has liquid cooling of the battery, two historical pain points of the previous Leaf generations. Top version with 75 kWh battery reaches WLTP 604 km (manufacturer figure); 52 kWh entry has a lower range (version-dependent).
