    Basically the same car I have (an e208) with a chunky body. Stellantis are really stretching out this platform seeing there will be nearly 10 different cars out based on the same thing. Will be expensive like the e208 though.

    I don't understand why car manufacturers still offer decals as a payable extra. If I was to buy a Jeep Avenger with out the decals because I had to pay extra for them, I would simply say thanks, take the Avenger and go to a shop that prints decals and give them a picture showing the decal on the car and get them to make the decals for me at a far better price

  • @WEZ4136
    @WEZ4136 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Great review as always, but I would add that as a father of an 11 year old the back seats look almost pointless being as my sons knees would not be at the edge of the seat, so his legs would be more straight with his feet being like pushed against the back of the drivers seat, not comfortable for him or myself. You’d think the manufacturers would give the space a bit more thought when aiming the vehicle at smaller families.

      I have nav built in, the maps are over 6 years out of date and it costs 100 USD to buy the upgraded maps AND I have to install them myself. Or I can use my phones native mapping software (in this case, Google) which not only keeps up with changes to roadways but also tells me when traffic is slow, roads are temporarily closed and is able to route me different ways based on construction or current traffic patterns for the most time and fuel efficient ride.
      So a 30 USD phone stand or 100 USD maps that will be out of date in a few years and can't tell me traffic patterns?

    I think the BYD Atto3 has the Avenger beaten for spec at similar prices (UK models). Admittably the Atto 3 has a bit of a mad interior but it has the larger / longer range & safer LFP battery, heat pump & Panoramic roof as standard in what is a slightly larger car with more interior & boot space. That said I still find these EV cars far too expensive.

      If you think as an up-grade you have better options because this looks smaller on inside even than ioniq 5.. specially for space on rear seats so that say allot if you want decent room for 4 adults in the car.. and ioniq 5 can be spec with dual-motor (like 4x4 AWD and still have 340 miles of range between re-charges).. if you plan going off-road just add some off-road wheels and raise the shocks a bit and ioniq will go in plenty off-roads places that would put to shame plenty regular small off-road vehicles, i have seen plenty owners doing off-road conversions to ioniq 5 +a roof-rack for extra gear and went off-roading..
