Space, size and seats
Being a car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.
A good match for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Try before you buy
Drive the Electra on your commute before you commit to it. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Running costs
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Which one to look for
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
