Nice-handling SUV. Steers much more sharply than my previous SUV, a Lynk & Co 01. Has almost the same options as the Lynk. I wanted fully electric, though. The Marvel has a realistic range. So far it has never shown the WLTP figure of 402. But whatever it shows, it achieves. And I've experienced that very differently before (Lynk & Co 01 and Mazda MX-30). In short, a very good, comfortable EV. Downsides: abrupt steering corrections and annoying warning beeps. These can be switched off, but you have to do it every time. It's also a shame that the otherwise great navigation has no Dutch voice.

Hongqi E-HS9

The Hongqi E-HS9 arrives like a modern state limousine rewired into an electric SUV, all imposing chrome, tall presence and an interior that aims to cocoon occupants in luxury. It's serenely quiet and packed with tech, offering a compelling, slightly quirky alternative to established European luxury SUVs for buyers who want drama as much as comfort.
