Honestly, this car feels like something special — it stands out in today’s market. I had gotten tired of traditional gasoline cars and was seriously thinking about going fully electric. But at the same time, I wasn’t ready to give up the thrill of driving — the engine sound, the feeling of gear shifts. Most cars nowadays feel too similar, almost boring in their uniformity. Then I came across the 5N, and it felt like the perfect blend of both worlds. When I want a sporty, gasoline-like driving experience, it delivers. And when I just want smooth, quiet, relaxed driving, it transforms into a fully electric car with ease.
Interior space? Unreal. The car is 4.7 meters long with a 3-meter wheelbase — that’s rare. The wheels are pushed right to the corners, and the rear cabin is as spacious as some full-size luxury sedans. I can stretch my legs comfortably. The trunk is deep enough, though the height is limited — it fits two large suitcases, but stacking more on top isn’t ideal.
Charging performance is more than satisfactory. Even though the peak charging power is around 200kW — which isn’t record-breaking — what really matters is that it’s stable. You can actually go from 10% to 80% in around 15 minutes if the charger is powerful enough. I usually charge to 90%, and if the station is 150kW or more, I’m done in under 30 minutes. For daily use, that’s great.
Design-wise, it’s a perfect mix of cyberpunk and classic — aggressive and eye-catching. People definitely notice it on the road. Inside, you can tell they spent the budget wisely: everything you touch regularly — seats, steering wheel, armrests — is covered in premium materials like Alcantara. The untouched areas? They went with hard plastics, which makes sense. But the interior layout is well thought-out, especially around the steering wheel. There are a lot of buttons, but once you get used to them, the layout feels intuitive — a sign of experienced engineering.
Driving it is honestly the best part. In normal mode, it feels like a refined gas-powered family SUV — smooth, well-balanced, and perfect for daily commutes or family use. The front sports seats have ventilation, which is a blessing in summer, though the rear only has heating. But when you switch to N mode, the entire car changes character. The response becomes instant, the chassis tightens up, and it feels like a car built for the track. Some owners have already tested it on actual racetracks and praised its quick corner exits and responsiveness.
The manually adjustable seat lets you drop your driving position low, like a race car. It puts you in the mood. And when you're driving through winding roads, the car behaves like a real performance machine. The rear is agile, it rotates into corners with confidence. What makes it even more fun is the realistic sound and fake gear shifts — all simulated, because there’s no real engine or gearbox. Which means you can rev it to 7200 RPM without worrying about wear or damage. It’s pure, carefree fun.
To me, this is the most practical performance car you can actually use every day — without compromises.
The only downside? Being an imported model, there are still some localization issues. But at least it comes with the latest version of CarPlay, which helps make up for that. And at the end of the day, it’s a performance car — so I can live with those little quirks.
