ElbaV EVO is the base version of the ElbaV line, sharing the same compact body (23.5 cm wide) and the same 1.5-litre stainless steel boiler with HX exchanger as its sibling ElbaV PID. The manufacturer describes it as "the machine with all the important functions": it has the top lid that opens like a drawer to top up the 2.5-litre water tank without removing the cups, and the detachable front drip tray.
Unlike the PID, the official manual assigns this model a single-scale gauge (D.50) versus the double-scale gauge (D.60) on the PID; the EVO product page, unlike the PID's, does not mention PID temperature control or the ECO function, and the manufacturer does not state them elsewhere for this model.
The product page states the same footprint as the PID, 23.5x43x40 cm, for a net weight of 23.5 kg. The official manual is shared between the two variants and does not include a "technical data" table with voltage and power in the same form shown on the website.
