I'm asking about the new 009 model regarding the HUD issue. I'm 186 cm tall, and during the test drive, I noticed that the HUD display is not fully visible. The top part is cut off due to the angle. I've already adjusted the HUD to the lowest position, and my seat is also set to the lowest and a relatively back position. Even then, in a normal sitting posture, the top of the HUD is still a bit cut off, and I have to lower my head to see all the HUD information. Are there any other owners with the same issue? Also, can the 009's HUD display information from QQ Music, like selecting a song to play or displaying lyrics?

Is your CarPlay music playback smooth? How do you fix any issues? Also, the automatic lock/unlock feature sometimes doesn't work properly, which is frustrating. Additionally, after turning off the engine, the power cuts off immediately, so I can't close the windows if I forget. Lastly, when starting the car, I have to manually turn on the central control. Is this a settings issue on my part? How do you all deal with these issues? Or am I the only one experiencing them?
Why is your gear position display on the top, while mine is at the bottom?
Seeking advice for my first car (also just starting to drive). Budget around 400,000 RMB. Should I choose the Genesis with options or the new BMW 5 Series? I'm almost 35 and might have a child in the next 1-2 years. I feel like the Genesis doesn't have enough rear space, but I'm really attracted to its looks. The new 5 Series is quite controversial, but recently it's had significant price cuts, so I can afford the top trim, and it holds its value better. Could you guys help me decide?
4Why is the 001007 model getting an upgrade to the smart driving chip, but the 009, being the top-end, isn't getting upgraded? I strongly request the 2025 model 009 to upgrade the smart driving chip, include the advanced smart driving features, and add a co-pilot electronic screen. Also, why isn't the 009 available in the Star Silver color?
5Let me share my experience as well. I also have a 2017 MG ZS, one of the first batch from July, manual top configuration. Since then, apart from other issues, the main problem has been the car cutting off power when starting. The entire car loses power, and it won't start. It's fine today, but not tomorrow. The car often won't start. I've replaced several batteries and small parts, but the issue remains. Sigh, I'm disappointed. The car is still at the repair shop now, I'm afraid to drive it. If it stalls, it won't start again, which is frustrating. I used to be a loyal MG fan, but I'm really disappointed now. Next time I change cars, I won't choose MG anymore. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

7Since this is our first family car, we decided to go with a petrol vehicle that’s suitable for both city driving and long trips. After trying out and comparing many cars — Korean, Japanese, and even some Chinese hybrids — we finally chose the 2025 Changan Eado High-Energy Edition. Honestly, the first thing that made me choose it was the design — I really liked how the car looks, and the color matched my personal taste perfectly. The second reason was the engine — the 1.5L turbo is more than enough for highway driving. Even though it's a small engine, it delivers excellent power on the road, and at the same time, it’s fuel-efficient in the city — unlike a 2.0L that would consume more. The third and most important reason was the price — I see it as an excellent deal. I ended up with a good-looking car that’s packed with features. As for daily use, both my wife and I are new drivers, so having 360° cameras was a huge plus — it helped us a lot with parking and narrow roads. Honestly, without them, we wouldn’t have dared to enter many places. The car's performance is solid, acceleration is great, and just a slight push on the gas gets it moving quickly. The space is also impressive — three people can sit comfortably in the back, and the trunk has enough room for travel and groceries when we return from family visits. The smart features are also really helpful — I can use voice commands to control the A/C, start navigation, or play music without taking my hands off the steering wheel. On top of that, the car has a built-in dashcam that records continuously. Just insert a memory card and it overwrites old footage automatically. Exporting videos is easy too. In short, for around AED 70,000, I got a car that meets all my needs and protects me from the heat and the rain. It’s been an excellent experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a practical and affordable car.
8Honestly, the Lexus LX570 after its mid-cycle update has become more eye-catching than ever. The exterior design is bold, with a mix of luxury and modern flair that attracts younger buyers — and even older ones might find it impressive. But once you step inside, especially after hearing it's a full-size SUV, you're surprised to find the interior space isn't as generous as expected. I'm 180 cm tall and weigh 70 kg, and after adjusting the driver's seat to a comfortable position, there was only about 8 cm of legroom in the back — which feels tight for a car at this price point. That said, the interior materials are undeniably premium — the leather is soft and luxurious, and the entertainment and comfort features help make up for the space issue. Performance-wise, the 5.7L V8 engine offers plenty of power, but the throttle response is smooth and gradual. The car feels heavy, and the hydraulic steering gives almost no road feedback, with a noticeable delay between input and response. It honestly feels like you're driving on a mattress — completely isolated from the road, which doesn’t inspire much confidence if you're driving aggressively on pavement. However, if you think of it as an off-road vehicle, the story changes. The light steering actually helps absorb kickback when driving over rough terrain, and the adjustable air suspension gives you flexibility depending on the terrain. Add to that full-time four-wheel drive and multiple off-road assist modes, and the LX570 is a real beast off the beaten path. It’s a luxurious SUV clearly built for adventure, rather than sharp on-road performance.
9Honestly, I really liked the car’s exterior and interior design. We have to admit that German engineering is truly top-notch—especially when it comes from established brands like Mercedes. Positives: On the highway, the car is incredibly stable. Sometimes I find myself going 140 km/h without even realizing it—it's a huge difference from my old car (which was an Accord). This time I ordered it with the "Burmester" sound system, and the audio clarity—especially for vocals—is amazing. The exterior design grabs attention—it has presence. And the interior ambient lighting at night creates an incredible vibe. The infotainment system is very fast; navigation through menus is smooth and seamless. Fuel consumption is low—when driving in ECO mode, it goes below 7 liters per 100 km, which is excellent for a car of this class. Negatives: The driver’s seat is a bit tight. At low speeds, there's some hesitation or jerkiness in the gearbox. It’s not annoying, but you do notice it. The standard features are very weak—Mercedes really makes you pay extra for everything: seat heating? Extra. Keyless entry? Extra. In-car fragrance? Also extra! And the strangest part is that a car at this price point doesn’t even come with a power tailgate! Plus, if you don’t choose the optional extras, they tell you “no ready cars, you’ll have to wait”—especially toward the end of the year.
