I test drove today and booked the SR.

Went pretty well, the SA show how to turn on the car and explain how to set side mirrors, steering and explain how single pedal drive works. Drove around pavilion damansara for around 30 mins (swapped to my wife to test halfway).

Overall experience pretty good but if you’re just planning to test and not buying then might feel different (pushy) after testing as they directly ask which color and setup you want instead of letting you to go back and consider. I do planned to book after testing so it’s alright for me.

Pretty good for me but my benchmark might not fit everyone as I’m driving an old Vios. I don’t feel the ground clearance to be a problem, but there isn’t any very high bump on my test route. Not too sure on the commission side either, but the agent probably was from commission background and this is just how he approach sales.

I try to summarise as follow:
1. Pick up speed very good as expected from EV
2. Soundproof very well
3. Very quiet outside (when driving back to the destination there’s a pedestrian walking slowly in front didn’t know the car is behind him).
4. Suspension good, but my comparison is vs Vios so not sure how well compared to other high end car. The SA ask me to just drive through the bumps and potholes, don’t have to hold it back to test it. And it’s a lot better than my current one.
5. Regen braking might take 2-3 mins to get used to but once you gotten used to it then very instinctively driving that way. After test drive and I go back to my vios I need to adjust back coz I forgot need to move my feet to brake 😂
6. I test SR so the speaker at back seat not as great.
