Summary

The firefly firefly is a 5-seat hatchback with rear-wheel drive, not sold in the UK, but on sale from €29,900 in the Netherlands. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 8.1 seconds, slower than 74% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 149 miles (240 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 55th of 67 hatchbacks.

It uses around 3.6 mi/kWh (172 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 41.2 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 65 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 159 miles (256 km) at motorway speeds.

No heat pump is listed for this version, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.

Second-hand in Netherlands, a 2025 example is estimated at €17,000–€19,400, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 146 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
