Car nerd

Merc stands on the top of customer service. Driving pleasure is too good makes u feel important and provides luxury. Performance is good, sunblinds could be electric for the rearview passenger. GLC is a low-maintenance car. But yes, the rear passenger may feel a little cramped on long routes.

Volvo C40 Recharge E80

The driving experience was top-notch. This car is a paradise for driving lovers. Looks are stunning and can attract all other travelers on the road. Best class and comfort in this segment.

Volvo new age electric

My purchasing experience of this car was just awesome, smooth and very remembrance Driving is like a buttery experience Volvo has paid attention to detailing the car which could have been much more electric.
