Key specs

Type: Electric
Sticker price (MSRP)The manufacturer's suggested price. Dealers often sell for less (or more). Destination is the delivery fee added to every new car.All terms →: $94,990 (before destination)
Range (EPA)How far an EV goes on a full charge in the government's standard test. Real trips vary with speed, hills, and weather.All terms →: 410 mi
WV winter rangeOur estimate for a freezing West Virginia day, when heating the cabin and a cold battery cut range by roughly a quarter.All terms →: ~295 mi
Highway range (70 mph)How far it goes at a steady 70 mph in mild weather. Lower than the EPA number because wind resistance rises with speed.All terms →: ~280 mi
Efficiency (kWh per 100 miles)How much electricity it uses to go 100 miles. Lower is better — the EV version of higher mpg.All terms →: 27.1 kWh / 100 mi
Battery size (kWh)How much energy the battery holds — the size of the 'tank.' Bigger usually means more range, and a longer charge.All terms →: 100 kWh
Fast charger (DC fast charging)Public high-power chargers, mostly along highways. A typical stop takes the battery from about 10% to 80% in 20–45 minutes, but costs several times home electricity.All terms →: ~27 min (250 kW peak)

Frunk / sub-trunkExtra storage in an EV: a front trunk where a gas engine would be, and often a hidden bin under the rear cargo floor.All terms →: 3.1 cu ft
Luggage space, every seat full: 28.1 cu ft total

Towing: Not rated for towing
0–60 mph: 3.1 s

Why the winter number is lower: batteries lose range in the cold, and heating the cabin uses energy. We knock about 28% off the EPA figure for a January morning in the mountains. That still leaves 295 miles — about 9 days of a 30-mile commute on one charge.

Federal EV tax credits ended for vehicles bought after September 30, 2025. More in the FAQ. Sources for every number are on State of the Data.
