Honestly, the thing I like most about the Ranger is the space. When I first sat in it, I was genuinely surprised at how spacious it is—much more than I expected. You feel the cabin is wide and open, not cramped at all. I’m 180 cm tall, and after adjusting the front seat to my comfort, the person sitting behind me still has plenty of legroom and doesn’t feel squeezed. Even my friends who rode with me all praised how roomy the car is and said, “Great choice.”Fuel consumption is around 12 liters per 100 km. That might sound a bit high, but considering the car’s performance and power, I think it’s very reasonable—especially when compared to other petrol vehicles in the same class. One thing I wish were better is the noise insulation. Once you go over 90 km/h, you start to hear wind noise inside the cabin. Personally, I like quiet drives, so I hope Ford improves this in future updates.As for the driving itself, the Ranger feels powerful. As soon as you step on the gas, the car responds immediately—no delay at all. The acceleration is great, and you really feel like you’re driving something solid and confident. Just one small note: the new car smell is a bit strong, so I haven’t let the kids ride with me yet. I want to air it out properly first.Overall, the Ranger really impressed me with its comfort and space. If you’re looking for a strong and comfortable pickup, I think it’s an excellent choice.

The MG Maxus pickup's tailgate and electric lock are great for when the main cabin doesn't have enough space for your stuff and it takes up passenger space. By adding a rear cover, you can store more items, and the tailgate won't open. Are you also considering installing this rear cover?

I took a test drive and really liked it, but there are two things I'm struggling with: 1. I'm 182cm tall and it feels a bit cramped. 2. There's limited interior storage, which feels inconvenient. Is there any solution, like something from the store that can increase storage space? Also, is there any chance of a model update next year?

When I start my Hyundai Accent when it's cold, sometimes there's a strong gasoline smell outside the driver's cabin. What's going on? Any advice from fellow car enthusiasts?

If you're deciding between a used Tesla Model S and a Mercedes-Benz EQC with a budget of 15, here's a brief comparison that might help: - **Tesla Model S:** Known for its long range, powerful performance, and access to Tesla's Supercharger network. It's a popular choice for those looking for an electric vehicle with a performance edge. - **Mercedes-Benz EQC:** Offers a luxurious interior, smooth ride, and is known for its comfort and build quality. It's a strong contender if you're looking for a more traditional luxury SUV feel in an electric vehicle. Your choice might depend on what you prioritize more: performance and range (Tesla) or luxury and comfort (Mercedes-Benz).

Hey everyone, do you feel like the accelerator is really close to the floor in this car? With a floor mat, I guess you can't hit 6000 RPM. Are you all experiencing the same thing?

If you're looking for an SUV around 130,000 RMB for daily family use, Chery Tiggo 8, Jetour X90, and Haval Big Dog are all decent options. Here's a brief overview to help you decide: 1. **Chery Tiggo 8**: Known for its spacious interior and good value for money. It's a solid choice if you prioritize comfort and practicality. 2. **Jetour X90**: Offers a roomy cabin with flexible seating arrangements, making it great for family trips. It's also equipped with a range of features for convenience. 3. **Haval Big Dog**: Stands out with its unique design and off-road capabilities. If you enjoy a rugged look and some adventure, this might be the one for you. Consider what features are most important for your daily needs, like interior space, tech features, or off-road capabilities, to make the best choice.

The release of the Zeekr 7X has made me more certain of one thing: the current 009 model really lacks sincerity, or you could say it's an over-engineered product. It's worth waiting for the all-new version or for a full-size SUV.

My insurance is up for renewal. Which type of insurance do you all usually get? Share your choices so I can consider them.

I had been browsing car websites for a while and looked at models like Jetour. When the compact version of the Sportage was released, I was really drawn to its bold design—but once they announced the price, I knew it was out of my budget. So I went back to looking at cars like the Jetta VS5 and BinYue. I wasn’t in a hurry because I was using a friend’s car, but when he moved to another emirate, I had no choice but to buy my own. I consulted with my family and started visiting dealerships. I was planning to go with the Jetta, but at the dealership, I saw the compact Sportage in front of me, tried it out, and really liked it. It felt right, and the price fit my budget, so I went ahead and decided to buy it. After some back-and-forth with the salesman, we closed the deal. I'm 173 cm tall, and the front seat is spacious—I have good headroom—and the back is very comfortable. You can stretch your legs easily, and the trunk space is more than enough. Honestly, it exceeded my expectations. Sound insulation, though, is an issue! Tire noise is noticeable, and if you open the windows, you get a strong wind sound. Even the engine gets loud when you press the gas. Some people mentioned water leaks or strange noises, but I haven’t experienced that so far. I did get a bit of fog inside one of the headlights. I haven’t driven it much yet, but the company gave me six free services over three years, plus a AED 500 workshop voucher. The car has a 2.0L engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission—it’s been smooth and hassle-free so far. The power is enough for me. In sport mode, it responds quickly and drives smoothly. Of course, everyone dreams of a V8, but I like driving calmly—I’m not the type to race off at traffic lights. As for fuel consumption, it’s still too early to judge—I’ve only done about 100 km. The average so far is 10L/100km, and the best I got was 8.1. Some say they’ve managed 5.9, but realistically I think around 7 is more typical. There’s no such thing as a perfect car—just pick what you like and can live with. If the design and features work for you and the price fits your budget, go for it. The most important thing is that you’re comfortable with your choice.

Since I got the car, I’ve driven it a few times on intercity highways and elevated city roads. At first, fuel consumption was quite high — around 12 L/100 km — but after some regular use, it dropped to 7.8. It hasn’t gone any lower since then, even though I’ve only driven about 500 km in less than a month. Honestly, every time I refuel, it stings a little 😅. This is my first car, so I don’t have much to compare it to, but driving feels smooth overall. Once you hit 100 km/h, tire noise becomes noticeable, but throttle response during overtaking is pretty decent. The thing that annoyed me most is the infotainment system. There’s no built-in CarPlay, so I bought an external adapter. While it technically works, Bluetooth is unstable, and the navigation voice won’t come through the car speakers. On top of that, the system randomly activates and starts saying weird things, and the voice assistant sometimes greets you with “Hi” and other times with “I’m here” — honestly, it feels awkward. I’m not sure if all Japanese brands do this, or just this one. As for interior space, the rear seat area is quite good, but the new car smell is still strong, so I’ve thrown in a bunch of charcoal bags to absorb it. Overall, I’m satisfied for a first car, but there are definitely things that could be better.
