7 seats, daily EV range and a budget price -- what's the catch? Subscribe here: youtube.com/@therightcar?sub_confirmation=1
Well it turns out there are a few, with this one, because it's a cheap SUV that feels a bit on the cheap side in a few particular ways.
The back seat space and access is poor for the class, the powertrain leaves a bit to be desired, and the drive experience isn't terrific.
But the EV range and efficiency, pricing and specs and standard equipment, and the design of this large SUV might still make it a good choice for you and your family.
Just be aware, those curtain airbags don't extend all the way to the back row of seats.
I realised after I filmed this that I forgot to include the ownership and safety stuff you might want to know, so check out my existing Tiggo 9 PHEV Ultimate review, because it covers it all! youtu.be/0JdkKoVISRw

I am aiming to review every new car on the market that people actually buy, to help new-car customers like you, or curious car enthusiasts (maybe also like you) get the right steer when it comes to choosing a new set of wheels.
If you're looking for a car for yourself, monitoring the market and hunting for the latest info, or even if you've just bought your new car and you're looking to see what experts like me think about it, The Right Car will offer you something of value.
