The 4-year warranty period is ending at the end of the year. Is it necessary to renew the warranty at the 4S dealership? It seems to cost 3000 per year and includes a few maintenance sessions. Please, friends, share your insights. 🙏

Are there any friends planning to buy a car by the end of the year? Waiting gang here [facepalm]

Is it a good idea to go for the low-end BYD e2 with a down payment of 20,000 and a monthly payment of 1,281 for five years, including registration and insurance, fellow car enthusiasts?

Have any of you extended your warranty after the original 3-year factory warranty expired? Any advice? My vehicle is almost 3 years old, and I'm considering whether to extend the warranty. 🙏

If I don't maintain my car at the 4S store after the four-year or 100,000-kilometer free maintenance period, will it affect the lifetime warranty?

Has anyone purchased the extended warranty package from the manufacturer? It costs 2200 and includes 2 synthetic oil changes and air filter replacements, with a 5-year extended warranty for the whole vehicle. Is it worth it?

After 8 years with my old petrol car, it started burning oil, and I noticed a lot of people around me were switching to electric vehicles. That got me thinking. I was originally planning to get the top-spec Tank 300 (Menglong), and during the National Day holiday I went for a test drive — it met my expectations.On the way back, I stopped by a Jetour dealership and saw the T2. My daughter instantly fell in love with the exterior and interior — it completely overshadowed the Menglong in her eyes. Looks clearly played a big role, and after a test drive, it felt good enough. Since I don’t really need 4WD for daily driving, I booked it right away. Looking back now, I do wish I had waited for the 4WD version — a bit more power would’ve been nice.For this type of vehicle, electric power saves a lot. For daily use, my cost is just around 0.10 AED/km (charging at home on off-peak rates of 3.3 AED/kWh). My daily round-trip to work is under 20 km, so I only charge every four days, when the battery hits around 20%.For long-distance trips, I don’t bother with charging — it’s too much hassle. I just set the car to preserve 60% battery and drive on petrol. Even if fuel consumption is slightly higher, it’s fine since I only do a few road trips per year.The car is heavy and feels solid on the road. Acceleration is decent, but the 4WD version definitely would’ve offered better power and confidence. I’ve had the car for over half a year now. So far, the only issue has been a slight noise from the steering system — which was fixed. Other than that, no major problems. Buying a car always involves a bit of luck anyway.The biggest downside is the driver assistance system — it lags behind the competition. The infotainment system has improved a bit with the latest 4.11 update, but it still has room for improvement.Overall, I’m quite satisfied. Compared to many newer EV startups, Chery is an established brand. The lifetime warranty adds a lot of peace of mind, especially on the powertrain and electric components.

My Experience with the Nissan Sunny After 7 Years of Ownership I consider myself one of the long-time owners of the Nissan Sunny, and honestly, I can say it’s an ideal car for beginners. It’s easy to drive, very fuel-efficient, compact in size, yet surprisingly spacious inside compared to other cars in its class. While the exterior design isn’t the most attractive, it makes up for it with excellent interior comfort. I’ve had the car for almost 7 years and haven’t faced any major mechanical issues — just regular maintenance. One time, I noticed the passenger-side sun visor wasn’t properly attached to the ceiling, but I hadn't noticed it at delivery. Recently, the driver’s side window auto-up function stopped working — now I have to hold the button manually. At the end of 2020, the original battery started to weaken. It barely started the car in the morning and then failed completely in the afternoon, so I replaced it. To be fair, the battery’s lifespan was impressive compared to other cars — some of my friends replace theirs every year or two. Yes, small Japanese sedans like the Sunny aren’t known for advanced safety features. But I had a minor accident, and the Sunny held up pretty well. I rarely go over 120 km/h, and that speed is more than enough for me. The highway noise is noticeable, which is expected in budget-friendly cars. As for power? It's enough. Perfect for beginners, and even when the car is fully loaded, it still handles daily family use just fine. Conclusion: The Nissan Sunny is practical, economical, and reliable. It's not a luxury car, but it gets the job done — and more. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a simple, affordable car that can last for years, especially new drivers or small families.

Honestly, 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.
