  1. looks arse and ipad controls make me sad.
    door handles not working is bad for any car, let alone 50k+, absurd.
    then there is the seat shenanigans and cupholders working … some times (on a new car),
    better luck in 2028 I guess, wouldn't buy this for 20k.

  2. I feel like these reviewers never owned a real "luxury" vehicle. Throwing that word around so cheaply, or they are being favored by manufactures in some way. I went to test drive Geely based on one of his reviews just to realize they don't have real benchmark , instead use words like “good , very good, broke the market,” etc instead of comparing against the competition in real terms.

  3. my family has 2 light table type trucks much cheaper than others and just as good diesel also a four wheel drive suv petrol much cheaper but better than the rest and no problem with the service cannot comment about electric they have had a couple of small problems but were fixed very quickly awesome vehicles

  4. Negatives list:
    – electric external door handles (safety issue)
    – shit speakers (even at highest spec)
    – weird internal cabin camera is suspicious
    – 3rd row access is shit
    – safety features need work (pretty standard across most cars)
    What have I missed?

  5. BYD Boring Black interior only….. nope
    Dodgy handles…..nope
    Poor sound system…..BIG nope
    Dodgy cup holders….nope
    No frunk…..nope
    Poor rear seat design….nope
    Too expensive….nope

    BTW…pop out handles were banned by the Chinese government due to emergency setvices couldn't gain access in many accidents

    I'm waiting for solid state BEV to roll out in a year or 3 😂😂😂😂
