The lithium-ion battery is located under the trunk floor, partially reducing its capacity. It has a capacity of 14,1 kWh . It features several operating modes , allowing the driver to choose whether to maintain the electric charge for later use, use only electric mode, or let the car make its own decision in automatic mode.
