2013 2.3T Luxury Edition
Satisfaction: Powerful and cost-effective
Dissatisfaction: Many minor problems, large idle vibration, abnormal brake noise, poor after-sales service
Space: Good enough for home use
Power: Strong power, slow acceleration
Fuel Consumption: Slightly higher, but within the normal range, acceptable
Appearance: I like it, but I don't like the fake exhaust. It would be best if the manufacturer changed it to double-sided dual-exhaust.
Interior: Generally, there is little storage space in the car! The door panel storage space is narrow, the cup holder is too small and has no anti-slip design! There is only one air outlet in the back row!

2018 Performance Edition 1.8T Comfort Edition
Satisfaction: What I am most satisfied with is the power of Senova D70. Whether it is starting, accelerating, or overtaking, the actions are completed without any delay. After all, Senova D70 has the strength to be equipped as a police car. I am also very satisfied with the space of D70. To be honest, although the price of D70 is not high, the space can enjoy the comfort of a mid-size car. And the sound effect of the car is very good. The fast-paced music combined with such a strong power is what I like.
Dissatisfaction: The shortcomings of the Senova D70 are also prominent. The vehicle is more inclined to control and power, so the ride comfort is greatly reduced. Under bad road conditions, the bumpy feeling is particularly obvious, and the seats of the Senova D70 are still relatively hard, plus the bumps, it is not very comfortable. In addition, the market value retention rate of the car is too low. I feel that most people nowadays buy cars for comfort, which leads to this result. But I bought this car to drive it for ten years, so I don’t care.
Space: In terms of space, it feels larger than ordinary B-class cars. I am 175cm tall and weigh 70kg. When driving this car, the seat cannot be pulled too far back, otherwise I have to stretch my legs to step on the accelerator and brake. The back seat space is also large and the legs are quite comfortable.
Power: I am quite satisfied with the power. I have driven a Jetta before, and the power of the Jetta is also quite good, but it is much inferior to the Senova D70. And the handling performance of the D70 is very good. On the highway, 160 miles feels very easy.
Fuel Consumption: I also need to complain about the fuel consumption. Although I knew that the car weighed 1.6 tons when I bought it, I saw that the theoretical fuel consumption was only 8.1. I thought that 10 liters of fuel would be enough in the city. Now the actual fuel consumption is 12L per 100 kilometers, which has exceeded my expectations. However, there is also an advantage, that is, the Senova D70 is not picky, and 92-grade gasoline is also OK. From the beginning of buying the car, I have been filling 92-grade gasoline. So far, the combustion is still quite sufficient, and the performance of the vehicle is good.
Appearance: think the appearance is quite grand and attractive. The overall streamlined body is suitable for young people. The combination of the rear end and the taillights is a bit like a BMW.
Interior: The workmanship of the interior is still a bit rough, the plastic of the dashboard feels poor, the structure is also very simple, it only has basic functions, and the texture of the seat material is also average. The overall interior is low-end.
