AI Market Summary

Excellent all-around EV: strong range (around 520 km), comfortable, practical family car; low running costs appeal to Irish drivers facing rising fuel prices.
Mileage sits below Irish average—verify odometer history independently; soft-market conditions show 23-day sales cycle, suggesting realistic pricing without premium markup.
12V auxiliary battery failures reported within first year; budget €150–€300 for replacement if warning lights appear; infotainment glitches usually fixed via software updates.
Inspect charging port cover mechanism manually before purchase—sticking or poor closure in damp climates (common in Ireland) can trap moisture and damage connectors.
Two active recalls on file; confirm both addressed by seller or plan dealer visit post-purchase to clear any outstanding safety bulletins.
