Incredibly beautiful SUV. The most beautiful one out there in terms of style.
The interior could be a bit more modern... but the seats feel amazing.

Rubbish car.

Features clearly not as polished as other EV SUVs at similar prices (e.g. Volvo EX40 / BYD Sealion 7))

Alarms about driver fatigues every 10 minutes.

Well-built car, reasonably priced — unlike the inflated costs of German cars.

MG MG5

The MG5 is a surprisingly practical and stylish estate that gives family buyers a sensible, down-to-earth alternative to bland crossovers. As an electric wagon it blends everyday usability with low running costs and a cheeky dash of character, making it an easy pick if you value space and thrift over badge snobbery.
