Aion V Electric

5k km in and below is the review. Exterior - rugged looks. i cant see the t-rex but the turn signals looks very similar to the newer BMWs. Aion's are straight while the BM's have a kink at the top. However if you see it in the side mirrors when its behind you haha looks very similar. Side profile similar to previous gen forester. overall ok. Interior - ah this is where it wins in so many aspects. Ventilated seats? YES Massage Seats? YES Fridge? YES Panoramic glass roof? YES Sun Shade? YES Big screen? YES Reclining rear seats? YES Wireless Android auto? YES you really feel like you get alot of features for your hard, blood earned money! Granted only 9 speakers, no bass at all.. the double glazed windows are only up front. not the biggest boot, but sufficient for daily needs. is it the quietest interior? no, but it is still quieter than most. The drive - its does what its supposed to do, reasonably quiet, comfortable. Keep the tyre pressure at 270KPA. everything is fine. what could be improved? really they should have double glazed all the windows. then add in 1 subwoofer. i think that would make it the perfect SG cat A car. Because at the end of the day, are you going to be sa-ing all the corners in SG roads all day? No. are you going to be vroom vroom from traffic light to traffic light every single light? No. likely you will be just wanted to relax after a hard day, a nice smooth drive home, why not a massage while going home and aircon to cool down that rear. a cold ice lemon tea in the fridge waiting for you when you get into the car. Yes, that is what makes the difference. it feels like coming home.... Read More

Traded in my Note E-power for the Aion V Luxury and the difference is huge (literally). Not the fastest EV on the road but the instant torque makes up for it is more than sufficient for SG roads. Suspension is on the softer side so I don't feel super confident around sharp bends but it soaks up bumps very well. The noise insulation is excellent. Very comfortable car to drive. Loads of tech and build quality is good. PS. I swapped out the Maxxis stock tyres for Yokohama Advan DB v553 tyres and it is so much quieter!... Read More
