Summary
The Sono Sion is a 5-seat hatchback with front-wheel drive, sold new in 2023, when it cost €29,900 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 9.0 seconds, slower than 82% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 162 miles (260 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 49th of 67 hatchbacks.
It uses around 3.4 mi/kWh (181 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 47 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 60 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 162 miles (261 km) at motorway speeds.
No heat pump is listed for this version, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.
Second-hand in Germany, a 2023 example is estimated at €11,400–€12,600, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2023 car should still manage about 152 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
