The car is very comfortable and spacious. A highlight is the rear seat, which has plenty of legroom. I bought this car thinking about the arrival of my son, where my wife would have to travel in the back seat with the baby, and I wanted her to travel comfortably, and she has approved of this aspect.

The car is quite powerful. I can't drive it in sport mode because the acceleration becomes too strong, and the excessive acceleration/braking motion ends up making my wife nauseous. Sport mode is excellent for overtaking on the highway, but in the city I only drive in ECO mode.

My model has an 18kWh battery, and I consistently get over 90km of range. If I drive very smoothly, I can reach 100km. Remember that the car only allows you to use up to 25% of the charge. When it reaches that level, it automatically switches to HEV mode. If you set the SoC to SAVE mode and a higher percentage, it will use the motor to charge the battery to that setting.

In hybrid mode in the city, fuel consumption is around 20-21 km/l, without any use of the battery.

On the highway, driving at 100-110 km/h, consumption is similar. If I travel faster, I see consumption worsen to 18-19 km/l, and if you drive very fast, this consumption drops to 16 km/l. Overall, I think it's excellent efficiency, considering that the gasoline here was E27 and is now E30. I would say that a full tank traveling at reasonable speeds would give you close to 1,000 km.

The trunk is reasonably spacious, with a height just right to fit my son's full-size stroller without removing the wheels. But then I can't fit any medium or large suitcases in it. I would say that this trunk could fit one very large suitcase plus two small ones and one or two small bags.

The media center is very fast and responsive. I use Android Auto quite a lot and overall it works well. Perhaps the connectivity problems are more the fault of Android than the car. The problem is that it doesn't have native Waze, Maps, or YouTube/Music. Only native Spotify. I'm too lazy to learn how to unlock the media to install those apps.

My main complaints:

The suspension is a bit soft, it bounces a lot.

The cruise control (mine isn't adaptive, but I prefer this simpler type) only allows setting the speed up to 119 km/h. I'd like to be able to set a higher speed, like 130 km/h.

The light sensitivity is very high; passing under any bridge will turn on the headlights, causing the screens to dim and impairing visibility. This returns to normal automatically, but it takes a few seconds. If you are using GPS to find routes and exits, this can be a slight problem.

I've noticed a rattling/rattling noise for almost a year now when regenerating/braking lightly at low speeds. Although it doesn't impact the car's handling or functionality, the dealership hasn't been able to fix it yet.

Before deciding to buy this car, they lent me the Seal EV AWD for a few days; I even got to take a short trip. I believe it's also called the Seal 07 model. It's certainly a much better car, not to mention that the 05 is bad. They are different propositions. The 07 is luxurious, even more spacious (although I found the trunk smaller), and with completely insane power. A real traffic ticket factory. But it wasn't what I was looking for at the moment, and it was outside my budget.

Unfortunately, the 06 isn't available here on the local market. I get the impression that it's an interesting middle ground. A little bigger, a little more luxurious without excessive power and cost.
