but mg didn't sell much cars in malaysia, later bankrupt

test drove the c10, was considering to get it, but decided not to, they're so desperate they even loan me the car for 2 days
i believe b10 should behave the same

nfc reader is only on the driver-side mirror, if you exit from the driver’s side and walk to the passenger side
the door auto-locks again because of the timer — so everything becomes double work
inside the car, every time you shift into park, you must place the nfc card on the reader again just to engage drive
the nfc reader is in the same spot as the wireless phone charger, so you have to ensure the charger is off or your nfc card will get damaged

the phone app is also very cacat. To unlock the door, you need to:
1.Open the app
2.Tap “Unlock”
3.Key in your password

so many steps
and again, you still need to enter your password to engage drive mode
bluetooth proximity unlock drains iPhone battery like crazy, and even with it enabled, you still have to type and retype your password

I don’t mind typing a password for drivemode — that’s acceptable for security — but maybe not so many times? — like the car know you exist and re-entered then only need password
on top of that, all the ADAS features reset every time the car goes into park, so you have to turn them off manually every single time.
they promised a future update to fix the ADAS settings, but for now it’s just annoying, proton emas 7 only have 1 or 2 to turn off.

the pros is plenty of backseats leg room and not bouncy like emas 7, it's still a bouncy soft suspension feels like pudding car
if the price is the same as emas 7, just buy the emas 7

True, their marketing totally fail. They have good cars but hardly anyone knows about them. I really like their cars though, will probably buy a used one in the next few years.
SAIC and MG are doing well in PRC and globally so I think can still get parts in the future but don't know whether they will survive long in MY.

Before they drop the C10 to RM120k, sales is only single digit, after drop to RM120k, sales naik sikit to 50-100 vehicles.
i find card more susah to store and find, i prefer key fob

lol leapmotor sells more cars than Xpeng, Li motor etc.
Backed by stellantis

key fob is the easiest, don't know why leapmotor keep insisting on not including it
because from the start 2024 many people from other countries including malaysia already said their nfc implementation is dumb

Thanks for sharing these feedbacks.

Crazy to think how much manufacturer have go to "sell technology" by complicating car opening n drving. I think keyless entry method of ICE is the best. Juat open the door. No need to take out hp, car or other nonsense things.

Actually the MG S5 is the best handling car for this segment, not bouncy. The C10 didn't handle well also despite the Maserati tuning BS claim.

Leapmotor is doing very well globally. Stellantis has been very good in Malaysia since they took over from Bermax and they also plan to CKD this model.

actually they can make the experience easier, by implementing apple home key
or allow the user to choose less secure option by just walking near the car then the car unlock and straight drive away
but i guess you can't expect too much from them

I just notice 2 dealbreaker for this car.

1. Linglong tyres

2. Oversensitive ding dong ding dong non stop safety alert… the same issues with leapmotor c10

Comparing a sedan vs suv??? Apalah... honestly being my first suv, I think the suspension is a bit above my expectation. A bit stiff but holding up well... probably those 20inch tyres play its part as well. Most suv would have thicker tyres to absorb bumps and ride more comfortably.

MG S5 is SUV right? Not MG5 lul that’s different

oh... my bad... 

Didnt realized the difference...

S5 is MG4 jacked up, like how HRV came from Jazz back then.
