Hi thought it would be a good idea to have a thoughts of test drive thread to get an impression of how it feels and drives.

This week i got to drive the Luxury version for about an hour and had a nice ride but the are some things that make me go for a Leaf e+tekna instead(did drive a few other vehicles like mx30,mokka-e,ID3,) had the time to sit in and look around MarvelR

My drive was mostly in heavy rain on winter tires. Not sure if it's their final product or something they rushed out to get preorders '(especially the sound system)

Pros:
Great cabin air quality from the new filter.
Power delivery is perfect, won't have trouble pulling a full car and trailer on the hitch.
Silent (for the most part, getting there)
Infotainment is responsive
No plinging noises.
the build quality seems good, no creaking and squeaking from the interior.
Visibility is good(can't say the same for marvelR)

Cons:
Speakers are lacking dept, mid-range and sub is about non existent. highs are nice and clear, tried all options and manual adjustment with DAB and bluetooth so maybe they did not even fit the premium sound before shipping test vehicles
The "leather" seats feels like rubber and my jeans would stick to it?
Seating position did not fit my back, one hour was enough.
Tires might be a bit small for this size of car? Ride is fine
Can't say much about the headlights but the high beam seemed really weak especially next to the mazda.
While the interior is quiet i had a lot of wind/incoming car noise coming from the pillar next to my ear.
Windshield let a bit of noise come in from the raindrops, could be a cost saving going for thinner/cheaper glass.
The app wouldn't register on my phone.
Software of the car seemed still as work in progress
