The HiPhi Y presents a more mature yet still tech-laden offering from the brand, targeting a mainstream audience. While its design is less outlandish ... morethan its predecessors, it retains signature HiPhi features like the ISD LEDs and butterfly doors (though the rear doors are now conventional).

The reviewer highlights its u... morendeniably cute and charming aesthetic, reminiscent of a Japanese K-car, with notable features like a large panoramic sunroof and a surprisingly spacious interior for its size. While acknowledging the abundance of hard plastics typical for this price point, the Panda Mini impresses with its functional 8-inch touchscreen (on higher trims) offering smartphone connectivity, and the availability of air conditioning and electric windows across models.

Real-world range is estimated at 50-60% of the CLTC rating, suggesting around 60-72 km for the base model and 100-120 km for the higher-spec version. The top-trim model, costing around £6,500, is considered excellent value, offering more space, better equipment, and a more 'grown-up' feel than its main competitor.

Its design, inspired by Volvo concepts, is described as iconic and stunning, featuring a coupe-like profile with a practical hatchback. While the interior boasts premium touches and sustainable materials, some areas, particularly lower plastics and the dashboard fabric, are noted as feeling less refined or cheap. The reviewer highlights the responsive steering, well-weighted pedals, and effective one-pedal driving (though potentially tiring for daily use) as key contributors to its driving dynamics. The twin-motor Performance variant delivers exhilarating acceleration, comparable to a large cat or even a horse, making the driver feel one with the machine. Driver assistance systems like adaptive cruise control and Pilot Assist are praised for their effectiveness.
