Aion V Electric

What drew me to the Aion V Luxury were the features. No other car came close at this price point. When we first sat inside the showroom model, we were sold immediately. Plush leather seats, built-in massage, voice commands, fast charging, and a cabin that felt far more premium than expected. For what it costs, it already feels like you are stepping into the future. Driving it is pure calm. The cabin is whisper quiet, so quiet that I no longer wear my AirPods Pro and rarely turn the music past level 1. The ride feels smooth and spacious, with plenty of legroom and thoughtful details that make every trip a small retreat. The massage function is a personal favourite, especially in traffic. Range has never been a worry, and the car's systems are intuitive and easy to use. If there is one thing to improve, it would be the glove box design, but that is a small trade-off in an otherwise impressive package. The Aion V Luxury is more than just good value. It is a reminder that comfort, technology, and quiet can coexist beautifully in an EV built for everyday life.... Read More

Been looking around for an EV given that the push for EV is harder towards the end of the year. Few models in mind when I check out, Sealion &, Atto3 and Aion V. The Sealion 7, very common on the road now and very well built, but given the steep price even for the CAT A trim, it doesn't add up getting it especially they have taken quite a fair bit of features out from the CAT B trim. The difference is not just the COE but a lot more. So dropped out look 1 tier down, which left us with Atto3 and Aion V. Atto3, nothing unfamiliar with the car given that Grabride had already been using it, nothing more of an upgrade from my current ride and frankly the built quality of Atto3 isn't really impressive, if compared to the Sealion 7. Here, decided to drop by Aion showroom to check out the V. First thing after stepping into the showroom was greeted by the side view of the V, reminding me of a range rover. Was than introed to the car of 2 different trims, the Premium and the Luxury. All I could say is that this car has got almost everything, even for the lower Premium range. Comparing to my current ICE ride, this car almost have everything that I'm looking for an upgrade. The only difference between the Premium and Luxury were the battery size, massage chair, fridge (yes fride), leather seats, cabin mirror and DMS. If you are looking at something more straightfoward without some fanciful stuff, Premium trim would be more than sufficient and saving you some bucks every month. But if you have got money to spare, go for the luxury trim, and you would have everything it can offer. Frankly, if you are looking at an EV which is a sub-compact/mid-size SUV and not extremely heavy on your pockets, give Aion a chance and check out the V. You won't be disappointed if you are comparing directly to the mentioned choices.... Read More
