    The e-208 isn't supposed to be very efficient though and it's pretty slow but I suppose still better than a 1.4 - 1.6 Diesel but at the top end it will be lacking.


    It's not the most aerodynamic shape, that's true. At first glance the Corsa is a bit less flat fronted so it'll hopefully be a bit more efficient


    100kW of motor power is enough, I wouldn't be rallying this around the race track ;)


    Truth be told, I'd view this as a car for mid length journeys of 150-200km that's capable of doing long trips without hassle.



    I wouldn't be happy taking it from Cork to Dublin and back every day, but something like Naas or Drogheda to Dublin and back should be well within the capabilities

    27K for 50 Kwh is on the right track and I wonder is the corsa-e selling well ?
    No idea of the sales, got the impression it's just released and there's no obvious difference between the ICE and EV models, so without checking for an exhaust it's hard to know

    Looking at beepbeep....

    87 e208's last year.
    71 Corsa-e last year.

    The vast majority of those were registered in Jul-Aug.
    Taking out that some of those will be dealer demos, there isnt that many in the wild yet.
