I drove one a few months ago and put my experience on my YouTube channel.
It seems like a good car if you want to not feel as alien as a Tesla.  Like

same time, it is strange not having a shifter of any kind, no key, very
quiet, not crazy acceleration, and lots of options in menus on screens.

Enjoy,

Ken
