Street Stance and First Impressions

Maxus Euniq 5 arrives with a practical, no-nonsense MPV silhouette that prioritises space over flash, and the styling follows suit with clean surfaces and a high roof that give it a commanding presence on the road. The proportions — 4,825 mm long and 1,800 mm tall — read family transporter rather than trendsetter, which will appeal to buyers who want function first. Exterior detailing is neat rather than luxurious, so the Euniq 5 stands out by being sensible and purposeful rather than trying to be sporty or premium. Road presence is confident thanks to the boxy silhouette and upright stance, which also helps visibility for driver and passengers alike.

Cabin Comfort and Controls

The interior focuses on practicality with straightforward controls, comfortable seats and materials that are durable rather than plush, which suits its MPV role where spills and kids are expected. The layout puts commonly used buttons and the infotainment screen within easy reach, and the seating surfaces offer decent bolstering for long trips without being overly firm. Noise insulation is acceptable for urban and suburban driving, although highway refinement reflects its kerb weight of around 1,810 kg and MPV packaging. Overall the cabin feels honest and usable rather than aspirational, which matches the vehicle's purpose.

Room for the Whole Crew

The Euniq 5's six-seat arrangement is the headline: a family-friendly layout that makes boarding and individual comfort straightforward, and the generous length translates into real rear-seat space for passengers. Payload capacity of 541 kg means the van-like usability can handle luggage and passengers without much drama, and the flexible interior lets owners prioritise people over a single boot volume — the official trunk figure is atypically listed as 0 L because the space is highly variable with seats in use. For school runs, multi-stop family life or light commercial shuttle work the packaging works well in everyday use.

On the Move

Propulsion is provided by a front-wheel-drive electric setup making 177 hp (130 kW) and 310 Nm of torque, which delivers brisk low-speed acceleration for city traffic and confident merging on motorways, with a governed top speed of 160 km/h. The automatic reduction gearbox keeps operation smooth and predictable, and the FWD layout emphasises stability and easy handling rather than sporty engagement. The weight and tall body mean it leans in corners and requires measured inputs when the road gets twisty, but for its mission — comfortable, composed family transport — the chassis is properly sorted. Braking and steering are tuned for reassurance rather than excitement, which is the right trade-off for an MPV of this size.

What the Battery Actually Delivers

Official consumption is 22.6 kWh/100 km with a quoted electric range of about 360 km, figures that translate into affordable day-to-day running for most families, with typical urban use often beating the combined number. Expect real-world range to vary with motorway speed, load and temperature — realistic mixed driving will commonly fall short of the headline 360 km, especially with full load or in winter conditions. The efficiency figure means charging costs and energy use are competitive among medium-range EV MPVs, making the Euniq 5 a sensible option for regular commutes and weekend trips. Fast charging behaviour depends on the local charger network and onboard charging specs, so planning longer trips around charging stops is recommended.

Gadgets, Safety and Driving Aids

The Euniq 5 comes with a modern infotainment interface and an array of driver assistance systems designed to reduce stress in daily use, from parking aids to lane assistance and adaptive cruise functions that are increasingly expected in family transport. The digital elements are organised to be intuitive rather than overcomplicated, and connectivity options cover the basics needed for navigation and smartphone integration. Safety is underscored by the zero-emission electric drivetrain and a CO2 efficiency class of A, reflecting its suitability for emissions-conscious buyers and urban environments. Expect usable tech rather than cutting-edge luxury features, focused on convenience and practicality.

Who Should Buy the Euniq 5?

The Maxus Euniq 5 is aimed at families, shuttle and fleet buyers who need six comfortable seats, sensible running costs and a flexible interior rather than sporty driving dynamics or premium finishes; current versions include the Maxus Euniq 5 Electric Automatic Front-Wheel Drive with 177 hp, 22.6 kWh/100 km consumption and a quoted 360 km range. It makes strong sense as a value-focused electric MPV for daily school runs, airport shuttles and suburban life where interiors and load capacity matter more than badge prestige. Buyers seeking a long-distance, high-performance EV or a luxury cabin will find compromises here, but for its target use the Euniq 5 delivers a pragmatic, efficient package. Overall it’s a practical, purpose-built electric people-mover that keeps the focus on usability and economy.
