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.

MINI Aceman

The MINI Aceman squeezes classic MINI charm into a sharper, more crossover-ready shape, trading some of the old curves for grown-up practicality while keeping the wink-and-grin personality buyers crave. Inside it's a surprisingly premium, customizable cabin that feels clever rather than cluttered, and on the road the Aceman is eager and nimble — ideal for city dwellers who want an SUV silhouette with proper fun behind the wheel.
