Why quote the price in dollars when this is a launch in Europe for European markets?!

The base model (Active) starts at €30,000 and offers a WLTP range of 220 km with a 30 kWh battery and a 65 kW motor. It will still take a few years to verify these cars' reliability. If I were going to buy a car, I'd make sure it's reliable after two years on the market.
Many Chinese cars are being burned in Europe, and no one is taking responsibility.

It is common practice for a site with a global audience to show the value in dollars for a better price reference.
