How does it compare?
Range
The Dongfeng Nano Box boasts a respectable range of 331 km (205 miles). In the same league, the MG ZS EV offers a slightly higher range of 263 miles (423 km), making those long weekend drives a tad more convenient. Meanwhile, the Peugeot e-2008 falls short with 193 miles (310 km), while the Hyundai Kona Electric takes on 258 miles (415 km) valiantly. The range leader here, however, is the Kia Soul EV, claiming a solid 280 miles (450 km).
Acceleration
Now to the exhilarating subject of acceleration. The Dongfeng Nano Box might not win any drag races with its 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) time not officially listed, but it’s best suited for city sprints. The MG ZS EV isn’t much faster, clocking 0-60 mph in about 8.5 seconds. Meanwhile, the Hyundai Kona Electric zooms by at 7.6 seconds. Then, theres the peppy Peugeot e-2008 doing it in 8.1 seconds, and the slightly fleeter Kia Soul EV at around 7.9 seconds.
Power
It’s all about muscle next; the Dongfeng Nano Box churns out a modest 44 h.p., giving it an edge in urban settings rather than freeway duels. The MG ZS EV flexes with 143 h.p., thrashing the Peugeot e-2008 that delivers 136 h.p. The hulking Hyundai Kona Electric sprinting ahead with an impressive 201 h.p., and the ever-adventurous Kia Soul EV isn’t far off at 201 h.p. as well.
Charging Time
Charging hassles? The Dongfeng Nano Box provides a fair compromise with a full charge taking around 8 hours on a standard outlet. The MG ZS EV isn’t far behind with just over 6.5 hours. The Hyundai Kona Electric shrinks this inconvenience to 9 hours. The Peugeot e-2008 follows suit with 7.5 hours, and the realistic Kia Soul EV takes approximately 9 hours as well.
Price
Let’s talk pounds, dollars, and euros. The biggest ace up the Dongfeng Nano Box’s sleeve is its wallet-friendly price tag of roughly $9,740, £7,950, or €9,300. That undercuts the notably costlier MG ZS EV slotting in at approximately $28,900, £21,495, or €26,600. The Peugeot e-2008 lightens the wallet even more at around $38,500, £29,000, or €35,500. The Hyundai Kona Electric, with its polished power, lands at about $37,000, £28,950, or €33,500. Not to forget the Kia Soul EV cramming value with a price of $32,500, £24,450, or €29,400.
