I've had my car for 1 week now and my commute is 21 miles 1 way . I'll say it's a good car but the battery won't last long on freeway even driving the speed limit. If there's traffic that's gonna save that battery. But it's a good around the town car. Guess ill wait to get the extended battery
Not certain you sold me on premium model. Can’t see significant difference from base model I just bought to justify price difference. Right wrt to charging situation. If you don’t expect to charge mostly at home, don’t buy. Even in USA, public chargers are problematic.
Honestly, the differences between the Select and Premium come down to mostly creature comforts. Power seats, better sound system, fancier fabrics, option for the glass roof. Nothing super exciting. The differences between the Premium and the GTPE on the other hand… oh my! The Premium is fast. The GTPE is simply built to do crime! 🤣
Have to say I agree is realy that munch swing for the heavy price tag up grade or just go Gt then. Right here in pa in Ohio select awd used are between 23-26k for less than 30k mile car. Premium are 26k-30k used for 2021 car and up. So base car where I'm looking at bc of the used tax credit.
Apparently there is a heat pump but it does work only with the navigation and road planning on the display. It starts to heat in advance when you are reaching a Fast Charging Station. Otherwise, it cannot be activated manually.
In 2024 they added a lot more options on the base model that make the premium less compelling. The main thing the premium has going for it is the B&O Audio system which, in my opinion, only has more bass than the regular one because it has a sub in the back but the highs and mids sound the same in both audio systems. Also the premium has the power lift gate in the back and I believe it also has the power seating in the passenger side. Not sure it's worth the extra $ but depends on your driving needs.
