In electric mode, a battery charge with a capacity of 13 kWh is enough for 60 kilometers.
8.Kia Picanto
• Due to its compactness and efficiency (consumes 4,41 liters per 100 km), this car is an ideal option for the city.

6 Seat Ibiza

• And the model that opens the top 3 is less powerful, it has only 74 hp. And the consumption of gasoline is 4,21 liters per 100 km.
