    i was really keen on this car. researched the hell out of it then finally saw it at the showroom.
    The design is nice at first, but then u realise its just a tall narrow box with a fierce looking but low front.
    a normal amount of wheel arch pump would have given it such a better staunched look.
    i cannot fault the interior though. Top notch.

      There's 11kw home charging option in China (most residential places don't have the capacity to go beyond 20kw). But that doesn't matter, cos you won't charge after it dropped down to 0%. Home charging is so convenient, you can plug in and the car everyday if you want.
