    Thanks for the informative review.
    I thought the sunroof sun shade/blind was a brilliant addition, also the partition storage container on the front parcel shelf.
    Please can you add links where to buy those?
    I would love to purchase the Geely Panda Mini EV!

      thanks, I was quite surprised to find all these aftermarket add-ons right after I bought the car too much 😜 the car is probably only available in China right now 😉

    • @barrywebber100

      Yes, I'm currently looking at how much it would cost to privately purchase and import one into the UK.
      I did this a few years ago with a Chinese 150cc Scooter Trike which in the end failed due to the poor design and manufacturing quality of the scooter together with lack of parts, etc.
      With Geely being so much larger with International connections I think the risk would be minimal although the lack of a dealer network and easy spares access would be difficult.

      @@barrywebber100 oh wow, i m not sure how the process would work lol i cant provide u links as these accessories were bought locally thru PDD or Taobao... since the car isnt sold globally, so it isnt available on Aliexpress, so my best guess would be, u gona need someone that knows Chinese and be able to ask the sellers if they able to ship them over to UK

      And also, after driving EV for over a year, I figured there are lots of factors in the range... I mean like road conditions, tires, how much A/C u use, how fast u accelerate and how fast u maintain ur speed, and etc... I'm definitely not saving much for range lol accelerate a little too aggressive and A/C is always on for me
