I have a question. During a test drive on city roads, the vehicle's sound insulation felt pretty good. I'd like to ask the owners, how is the sound insulation at high speeds of 120-130 km/h? It would be great if you could compare it with some other models. Thanks!

Once the music starts, everything's settled. [Grin]

I'm comparing it with my own LS600hL. Those familiar with the LS will know what level that is. On the highway, there's not much difference in experience between the two. There's no subtle engine noise. It's a bit quieter.

I don't think there's any problem, driving on the highway is very comfortable.

The sound insulation completely outperforms the Model X.

When playing music at volume level 120, you can barely hear any wind noise.

At a speed of 120 km/h, there's noticeable wind noise, slightly louder than in a sedan.

How is the sound insulation of the G70? Can it be compared to the Lexus ES?

During the rainy season, my car has been parked outside for the past few days. After starting the car and pressing the brakes, I hear water sounds from the chassis. I've checked the sunroof and there's no leak, also tested the floor, and it's fine. Could it be that the frame has taken in water? Can any expert analyze this?

I'm currently driving a 330i, and I'm considering adding a well-handling SUV since I'm quite focused on handling. I've heard this car is pretty impressive. I have two questions I'd like to ask. I'm considering the S+. 1. How is the handling of this car? 2. Is it convenient for maintenance and repairs? I haven't really seen Lotus dealerships around.

I'd like to ask fellow car enthusiasts about the fuel consumption display of the Scirocco when cruising at a steady 120 km/h on the highway during the Spring Festival. Please specify your model, like 1.4T single turbo 7-speed showing xxx fuel consumption at 120. I'm just looking for a reference because I'm considering buying a fuel-efficient car with cruise control for highway driving. I think the Scirocco 1.4 single turbo is pretty good, but I've heard that the 2.0T 6-speed is also very fuel-efficient.

I’ll share my personal test drive impressions of various SUVs in the same price range. Can anyone explain the difference in chassis feel between the GV70 Flagship and Luxury models? If there's someone who has driven both, please provide detailed insights! I've also tried SUVs of the same class like BBA, Volvo, and Jaguar. Personally, I think the new GLC has the best overall chassis quality, with Genesis coming in second. Genesis has the best sound insulation! The throttle response is the worst on the GLC! The X3, Q5, Genesis, Volvo, and Jaguar feel quite similar. Subjectively, the GV70 ranks in the top two for overall comfort and drivability. PS: The Q5 feels more filtered and softer. The X3 is a bit too ground-hugging and follows the road surface too much, which I don't like. Volvo is in the middle, but it has the worst sound insulation in its class! The GLC's chassis quality is great with a solid, integrated feel, but the throttle response is really lacking! The Jaguar F-Pace has a slightly firmer chassis and a more sporty driving feel, but its downside is average noise control with some resonance, and it has the smallest rear space. Genesis offers the best overall driving experience. Even with 21-inch wheels, the suspension is really excellent, and the power delivery is smooth and responsive. The space is similar to the X3.

Hey everyone, I test drove the 2021 model today. While sitting in the back, the tire noise was quite noticeable. During the drive, the engine noise wasn't loud, but there was a bit of wind noise at 60 km/h. Can anyone tell me if the 2023 model has significantly improved sound insulation compared to the 2021 model?

Does the G80 have any interior odors? I used to drive an XC60, and it didn't have any smell at all—the cabin was very comfortable. However, Volvo's soundproofing isn't great. I took a ride in a car-hailing service today, and there was an indescribable odor inside the car. Not sure if it was a plastic smell or something else, but even though it was faint, it made sitting inside uncomfortable. I don't know how the driver tolerates it. I test drove the G80 and noticed a bit of a smell, but it wasn't unpleasant. It definitely can't compare to a new Volvo. I'm curious if the smell will still be there after one or two months. With my previous XC60, even after being parked under the sun, there was no noticeable odor inside. Any G80 owners care to share their experience?

I bought the full-option 600 km version of the electric EZ6, and honestly, I’m very satisfied with it. It really drives like a petrol car — the transition was easy, and I didn’t feel much difference. I only use it in the city, and so far, it’s averaging around 11.3 kWh per 100 km, which is excellent. The car is rear-wheel drive with an impressively tuned suspension. Cornering at 60–80 km/h feels smooth and stable — it really grips the road, making it perfect for mountain roads. I honestly wouldn’t recommend test driving it unless you’re ready to buy — it’s that convincing! The interior is elegant, with 14 speakers and great sound quality. However, one small issue: there’s no light on the vanity mirror, which can be a bit annoying. After installing the rear spoiler, I noticed what seemed like improved efficiency — maybe due to better aerodynamics, or maybe just my imagination. In eco mode, the car can get close to 600 km of range in the city — without using the A/C. In summer with A/C on, it drops to around 550 km. If you switch to sport mode and drive over 100 km/h, the consumption can go over 15 kWh per 100 km. One downside is the limited infotainment system — despite the great sound system, you’re mostly stuck with music. Also, some settings have to be manually re-enabled every time you start the car — probably for safety reasons. As for comfort, my family loves it — especially the kids in the back. The wireless phone charger works perfectly, and Bluetooth connects quickly. The trunk is very spacious, and there’s even extra storage under the hood, which is great. I take good care of the car — I always use a car cover when parking outside, and the interior really gives off a premium feel. During the day, I try to save energy by turning off unnecessary lights and filters. One feature I really love is the remote parking after getting out — it’s super accurate and genuinely useful. Honestly, it’s a great car and definitely worth test driving if you’re considering an EV.

I've had the car for about a month now, and honestly, I feel like it's a great fit for younger drivers. The design is sporty, and the interior space turned out to be better than I expected, so I didn’t hesitate to go ahead and place the order. At first glance, the look is pretty standard — nothing too flashy — and the car sits lower than most other SUVs. So far, I’ve driven around 600 km. Fuel consumption is currently between 8.8 to 9 L/100 km, mostly city driving. I haven’t taken it on the highway much yet, but I believe the fuel economy will improve over time. Acceleration is quite strong — it uses the same engine as the Civic — though I don't push it hard often; I only tried flooring it once just to see how it feels. The rearview camera is clear, and I didn’t install a 360° system since I’m used to using the mirrors, but I might add it later — blind spots are always a risk. Friends and coworkers who sat in the back all said the space felt pretty good. What annoyed me the most is the infotainment system. Wireless CarPlay has a 1–2 second delay, which isn’t terrible but still noticeable. I’ve seen people online claim some versions have zero delay — not sure how true that is. The voice assistant is also a bit frustrating; it sometimes activates randomly in the middle of a conversation and starts talking out of nowhere! The horn also sounds cheap — one guy compared it to an electric scooter and honestly, I couldn’t agree more. Another weird thing: there’s no one-touch window up/down feature, which feels like a missed basic feature. And the sound insulation is weak — you can clearly hear wind and tire noise, especially at higher speeds. I usually end up turning up the music just to drown it out — maybe that's just typical for Japanese cars? Overall though, as my first car, I’m pretty satisfied. I don’t have much experience with other cars yet, so this is just my perspective. Hope it helps anyone considering this car — no offense intended to anyone!

I bought the new Toyota Corolla 1.2T. The engine has 116 horsepower—not super powerful, but its performance is better than I expected, especially when you push it. The CVT gearbox is smooth, though there are occasional slight jerks. In terms of comfort, it’s pretty good. The suspension absorbs big bumps well, but you do feel the smaller ones a bit. The driving is stable, the steering is light and responsive, and the brakes are solid. Wind noise is well-insulated, but tire noise becomes very noticeable at high speeds. The interior feels a bit outdated, with lots of plastic materials. The screen is weak, runs the old system, and is barely backlit. Front space is fine, but the back is a bit cramped. The trunk has a decent amount of space. It comes with a full set of safety features, but no parking sensors! The bottom line? It’s a practical, reliable car—great for people who aren’t looking for fancy tech but want something dependable and easy to drive.
