But even after about an hour’s drive, I knew a lot about this bargain-basement car – €12,990 for a family-sized vehicle – whose comfort and safety levels are definitely last generation. It is a telematics box installed within the car to monitor driving behaviour – including speed, braking and smoothness of driving.) Typically it might take around 8-10 hours to charge a car with a decent range of about 400kms. Strangely for such a low car, I never found any difficulty getting in. It’s a pity, as the cars like the Aertoen Shooting Brake bring back an elegant style to motoring.
