Engine overview · ELECTRIC
The I01 electric drivetrain is mechanically simple, but condition depends heavily on high-voltage battery health, charging history and whether the car has the optional Range Extender petrol engine.
Pros
- Quiet, responsive electric drive.
- Compact urban-focused design.
- Range Extender versions offer additional petrol-fuelled backup range.
Cons
- Battery capacity declines with age and use.
- Range Extender cars have extra engine and exhaust servicing needs.
- High-voltage repairs require specialist equipment.
