Pros and cons
What’s good
- Sub-2,500 cc KRA tax bracket savings across all models.
- 50–80 km pure EV zero-emission commuting on PHEV.
- Standard 7-seat layout on petrol variants.
- Comprehensive trim lineup: From city-friendly E-Hybrids to track-ready Turbo GT models.
- Outstanding E-Hybrid efficiency: 0–100 km/h in 5.0 seconds with 44 km pure EV city commuting capability.
- Adaptive air suspension: Height raises up to 245 mm for deep potholes and rough upcountry roads.
What’s not so good
- PHEV is strictly a 5-seater due to rear motor battery pack placement under boot floor.
- CVT rubber-band effect under heavy mountain climbs.
- High CRSP customs valuation: Import duty and taxes represent a significant investment, especially on V8 badges.
- Specialized maintenance requirements: High-voltage battery systems and twin-turbo V8 engines require certified diagnostic tools.
