Uploaded 9 months ago by carwow

Video Summary

- The car is designed to offer a luxurious feel at a reasonable price, with the range starting from £37,735; the electric version starts from £48,650, and the car tested, with all the options, costs £53,650.
- The interior has a cool look, packed with functionality, although it is not as practical as other seven-seaters, and boot space is lacking.
- Some design touches, like recessed window rubbers and contour panels, make the car look more expensive, but the sensor panel at the front looks cheap.
- The design of the front is distinctive, but the back looks “fine.”
- This car should get attention.
- The Peugeot steering wheel makes the car feel sporty.
- The rearview mirror can block the windscreen and the back window is not the largest, although visibility is decent.
- Brakes have a dead spot when in the least aggressive regen setting.
- One-pedal drive is not available.
- The interior materials feel solid in general, though the lower portions are scratchy.
- Rear passengers can set the temperature, which can also be locked to avoid changes.
- The middle seat in the second row is not comfortable.
- Storage in the rear is shallow.
- The small globe box has the fuse box.
- Range anxiety is also a point. Although it’s supposed to do 310 miles on a full charge, the real range works out to around 220.
- The suspension is soft, but, when hitting sudden bumps, the car can skip sideways.
- The electric version was only given a “shortlist”, with a recommendation to buy the petrol version.
