Just bought one... maciam sudah sold out... next year doing long range for RM15k more I heard from SA.

Not sure why sorhai go buy CRV and CX5... if you charge at home, 11kw is fast enough... not many will use DC charger since expensive like petrol.

No need pay premium for 7x or Sealion 7 la... EV all more or less same unless you go for performance model but roadtax will be expensive as fark.

From the spec sheet, phone Bluetooth entry pun driver side only. Macam P1 and P2 lower end cars only. In Malaysia, if side parking mostly on we park on the left hand side same as the direction of road. So, sometimes you just want to put something or retrieve something or put your child on rear left hand side first before going to the driver side. Take out phone, take out card, ini semua recipe untuk dirompak dulu sebelum masuk kereta. I thought only B40 cars do this, sebab itu nama pun B10.

I think they design to use with phone... Tesla inspired (copy cat)...

Just that sometimes it takes a while to detect and unlock automatically. Normally I just walk to my car (c10) and if it doesnt unlock, then I press the button on the door handle. If hot day, you can use the app to prep the car to cool down first before you start walking to your car. I only bring 1 rfid card in wallet just as precaution if phone battery ran out or malfunction.

Seems like the nfc/phone app implementation is kinda dodgy. And havig to take out the card to engage drive feels outdated when even ICE cars can just keep fob in pocket to drive. Which is a shame as it's really competitive.

As for ADAS, e.MAS 7 has been updated so that the most annoying one, speed limit warning, can be set to display only. Now just need to finally release Android Auto.

Sudah cakap you want to use card or bluetooth also can... but have to key in password if use bluetooth... you need to wait for it to boot first lor but since EV auto on AC once you unlock, not much problem.

C10 main problem is no android auto or carplay. Only can mirror your phone. If you are bothered with this, then B10 is your only choice.

Leapmotor is consistently in China Top 10 mthly sales with average 70k units sold/mth.

Different priorities...

I see many brands prio white interior which is not only expensive but also not ideal for those like me who worked in factory. Also some of them prio flashy LED, motorised door opening like owner cacat cannot open or close door by themselves.

I prefer a simple vehicle, A-to-B, less accessories = less maintenance in future. Even opt for rear wheel drive so that wont have CV joint problem in future.

When other EVs don't need to take out anything to unlock car for most situations, that's a downside.

What do you mean? You dont need the rfid card to open the door. If the app works, it unlock automatically as you walked near. You can change the detection zone if it is not very effective. Even if that failed, you just need to press the button on the door to unlock if you already paired your phone.

That's what I meant when asked earlier, can the phone work like other cars fob. But it seems like still need key in passcode when driving, which for me is a downside, but this is a balance of security vs convenience, so that's up to taste.
*
Password is annoying for sure. They should have improved on that, like principal account does not need to key in password. At least losing the phone doesnt mean you will lose your car too.

Honestly I dont find it annoying... however, the most annoying is you have your phone in your pocket, tells your wife you go to pick up something. Later wife call and ask you to remote unlock the car.

Yeah, that's annoying for sure. This NFC + Phone Combo got popularized by Tesla, but I think even they sell/provide keyfob as an option.

Well, just add your wife as supp account lor. Then she can use the app to unlock the car.

Not a big problem for me as I always had 2 phones with me.

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.

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.

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.

When you read feedback from non-owner, obviously you are gonna get the wrong picture.

Ways to unlock car:

1. card tap on driver side mirror
2. using app... there are 3 options... a)unlock as you approach b)press the button on driver (both unlock and lock) c) lock as you leave... also can choose the detection zone to be more or less sensitive.
3. using app... this have to load the app, and click unlock/lock

You have to set the mandatory 4 digits password to enable drive mode. Everytime you get out of the car (say leaving the car but with phone and passenger in the car), then came back, you have to enter password. Slightly annoying but a security feature.

If you are not fancy of entering password, then just use the app for unlock/lock... the use card to enable drive mode. This way you do not need to set password. Like they explained, you are not forced to use password but it is just a convenient way to share your car among family members without needing the physical card.

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
*
For no2, you can use the steering shortcut... set a preferred drive mode and disable the lane keeping + speed limit warning. Have to do it everytime though... it seems like they have enable the function to off distraction warning all the time.

You still have to deal with back passenger seatbelt, AEB (if you decide to keep it on).

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

With all the update and facelift coming every now and then, I dont think I can remember them all... I only compare and test drove 2 (c10 and seal 6) before making the purchase. The initial impression is that they were all more or less the same, but I would give the BYD the slight edge due to the braking implementation that was quite similar from an ICE car. The brakes on the C10 imo is either too strong (comfort braking off) or too soft (comfort braking on). I did have to drive with one pedal mode for few days to get used to the sensitive brake pedal. After driving EV for whole week, my feet is getting really light on throttle now and when I go back to driving my ICE car, I was able to drive at 30kmh now (foot on accelerator)... something that was impossible for me before this. laugh.gif

nah, two of the most obvious stuffs that's inferior is the audio speakers, the soundproofing and the under powered 125kw electric motor
that infotainment is using a slower chip, which can cause apple carplay android auto to lag even in wire mode
also interior rattle

one of my friend brought it, so i know
also if i'm not mistaken the electric motor and high woltage wire is just like leapmotor b10
no plastic cover leaving it exposed to the elements

Bro, emas 7 is front wheel drive leh... thats why u can see more things at the front... probably thats why out of space to cover nicely

Anyone selling a half crappy car in China will sell well. Their population is huge. U sell them a lousy car , put in some lcd screens, ambient lighting , ppl will buy as long as its cheap.  Even 1% of the population buy ur cars also u are good to go already.

You think 100-150k cars from Japanese brands better?
LPPL la... if want nice interior, go buy Germans.

Obviously if you even compare them, most are running almost the same specs. At this point, its like a off the shelf system you can buy and customize your dashboard and door panel to fit those lights, camera and adas system. Even the GUI is more or less same.

Honestly I never understand the needs for luxury dashboard etc in the car. The most important is the seat ergonomics and space. Everything else came 2nd.
