AI Market Summary

**Strong EV fundamentals:** zero emissions, low running costs, excellent acceleration, and access to expanding Irish charging network make daily driving efficient.
**New stock commands premium pricing:** 2026 models at €45,500 median reflect full retail pricing; little negotiation room with only 3 listings and 20-day sales cycle.
**Early software gremlins reported:** infotainment freezes and touchscreen lag documented on new units—request full software version and test every function before handover.
**Check charging port condition closely:** inspect connector for corrosion or debris, especially if near coast; corrosion repairs can be costly and affect warranty claims.
**Monitor 12V battery health in winter:** auxiliary battery discharge in cold weather is a known issue—confirm dealership has performed pre-delivery system checks and document battery voltage.
