Exterior: The car has a streamlined and very attractive design — at least for now, I find it especially good-looking. The front end looks bold and commanding. I chose the Titanium Silver color because it doesn’t show dirt easily, haha. My old car would go months without a wash, and I plan the same with the new one, even if it’s a Lexus. Interior: I picked the Tea Platinum Brown color with perforated seats — fits my aesthetic perfectly. The door panels, dashboard, and center console are all covered in soft-touch materials. Compared to my old Volkswagen, this feels way more premium. Space: With a 2870 mm wheelbase, it’s standard — not particularly spacious, but not cramped either. My friend’s S90 has a rear seat that truly feels large. I used to drive an SUV, and in a sedan, moving between seats is definitely less convenient. Features: Can’t compete with EVs in terms of tech, but compared to the German "34C" segment, this car is very well-equipped: electric seats with heating and ventilation, L2 driver assistance, remote engine start and climate control, voice recognition, full keyless entry, and best of all — a single-panel sunroof, which is really nice! Performance: Yep, I was mentally prepared. It’s slow on takeoff, and the acceleration is weak. Especially when starting off — if you press the pedal hard, the engine gets noticeably loud. Once you're cruising, though, it feels much better. Fuel Consumption: I drive 50 km daily, mostly on elevated roads. After 500 km so far, the average fuel consumption shows 7.3 L/100 km. I’m confident with my smooth driving style I’ll get that number even lower.

Hey guys, I want to ask if it's normal for my 2006 1.6 automatic Peugeot 206 to feel jerky when driving at 40 km/h and 60 km/h in D mode?
The fuel consumption of the 1.6 isn't low, and the trunk is also small. It feels sluggish when driving and can't even match my old F3.
Are there any friends who feel that the front seats, especially the driver's seat, are too narrow for those who are on the heavier side?
4The front clip of the electric seat adjustment panel is cracked. Do I need to replace the entire assembly?
5Does this car feel unstable when driving at 160 km/h on the highway?
6The old 6AT with a 95 isn't very fuel-efficient on the highway. At a cruising speed of 120 km/h, the fuel consumption can reach 11L. What's going on...
7I went to the auto show today. The space is okay, but the front seats are short and narrow, even smaller than my old Jetta. I'll go for a test drive another day to see if it feels any better.
8I picked up my Nissan X-Trail Classic in March '24. While driving, I always feel the brake pedal makes a loud noise when it rebounds, especially when I release the pedal quickly.
9Has anyone experienced a noise from the front right wheel, like a screeching sound, especially when lightly pressing the brakes or driving at 20-30 km/h after braking? The noise is very sharp.
10Honestly, 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.
