Huge missed opportunity not to have a hatchback tailgate. That’s so disappointing other wise I really like it and was considering it

I can put you in touch with one if you're serious about it. The import stuff is the challenge.

Do you know if the infotainment can be changed to English language? I went to see one today but the infotainment was all in Chinese and very hard to navigate

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Yeah, you can't change it in China except by some special hack, usually there are some shops that can unlock that in the back of the system. For ordinary people there's no English option to prevent people exporting them unofficially.

[@supernovadw]

@InsideChinaAuto ah ok, that's super annoying since it's an official import through the dealer but a Chinese spec model. Any links to how to hack it? Really puts me off the car the menu being Chinese

[@InsideChinaAuto]

@@supernovadw If it's an official import they'll be putting the system in English. Where are you looking at it? What country?

[@supernovadw]

@InsideChinaAuto unfortunately that's not the case 😬. I'm in Laos and went to see today at the dealer here and it's in Chinese and they don't know if it can be changed or not. Unfortunately the dealers here for all brands are totally useless and basically just sell cars with little back up.

Not likely. They're owned by Geely and they're doing very well so very little chance of getting binned anytime soon.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

@stuartthrupp7133 Well yeah but they had one car for about 2 years and it's a massive flop in China because it's expensive and too small in the back. With the 3 and 4 they'll have a better chance, but they need to convince people with their product. Zeekr already have that.

What is the range and can you charge at the supercharger network

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Range is 688km with RWD and the 75kWh battery, 616 with the dual motor and 75kWh battery, and 660km with the dual motor Performance edition with the 100kWh battery. With the 100kWh battery on the single motor version they claim 870km, but bear in mind all those numbers are on CLTC so reduce by 20-25%. As for the supercharging network, they should be OK to charge on those open to other brands but I can't confirm that. I've never used the supercharger network so not sure what plug they use in China.

[@MrCountrycuz]

@@InsideChinaAuto With all the Teslas in China I would assume that all the cars there would e compatible with NACS. Tesla is King!

Interesting, the exact same comment posted 1 minute apart from two different accounts. Either way, I don't record video of highway lane centering programs, nobody would watch, so I only include when sharing urban autonomous driving videos and it wasn't enabled on my car so no dice.

Would you like me to demonstrate them in the video? Not sure Zeekr would lend me a car again. As it stands there are no crash test ratings for this car but given all other SEA platform cars tested by EuroNCAP (smart #1 and #3, Zeekr X and Zeekr 001) all got 5 stars, I'd expect the same here.

MACH-E has no door handles we have that in the UK.

Does that go for the buttons too? Last year when they launched the X at Shanghai they offered one with handles because in Europe you need them. Maybe the UK doesn't have that problem.

[@honesty_-no9he]

@@InsideChinaAuto Well actually I do believe FORD should offer door handles for TAXIS.. Customers should not have to figure out how to enter a cab. They have door handles on the NISSAN ARIYA to avoid the EV weird factor. MACH-E entry is fine for private owners. It makes sense no to insist on any that could be a turn-off. In the USA German cars like E-TRON are not allowed to offer cameras instead of wing mirrors.
