MG 9 / RISING F7 DRIVEN - STUNNING CHINESE EV COMING TO EUROPE AS AN MG

EV Channels Review

The Rising F7 presents a compelling package, particularly for those prioritizing comfort and value. The reviewer highlights its spacious and luxurious interior, dominated by a large, impressive dashboard screen and comfortable, supportive seats with extendable cushions. Rear-seat passengers are well-catered for with their own entertainment screen and climate controls. While the F7 boasts strong performance figures, especially in its dual-motor AWD configuration, the handling is described as initially "shocking" and "boatlike." However, a significant improvement is noted after adjusting the chassis balance to a sportier setting, making the steering more precise and body control tighter, though it still lacks the feel of some competitors. The reviewer also points out the F7's practical hatchback design offering substantial cargo space, a feature differentiating it from traditional sedans. The real-world range is estimated to be around 450 km, a 20-25% reduction from the CLTC rating. The vehicle's quiet cabin, enhanced by double glazing, contributes to its overall comfortable ambiance. The F7 is positioned as excellent value, especially considering its features and the potential for battery swapping, which is expected to further reduce the initial purchase price.
