Most Helpful Review

Little expensive

It's very fun to drive a car and feature loaded and not comfortable as Maybach it would be good if they offered a 700 km range on a charge which was better at this price point or they have to make a cheap plug-in hybrid which goes upto 300 km like foreign it would have better if they made that . Eqc does not give a driving feel of gasoline or diesel

Gorgeous

Best Car I don't have money to buy one else I would have but worth it though its comfort is slightly not good slightly else best revs automatic transmission so smooth definitely worth it.
