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

Two eyes of success

As a BMW owner best car I ever used and a drag race-winning car no doubt. By using this car you can win many drag races in front of sports cars also. When you ride this car no doubt you feel successful in life.
