I believe they only have LHD showroom cars at moment, have put my name down in showroom for test drive a month ago but don’t think that will happen until the first RHD cars are shipped over Jan/Feb time?Anybody had a test drive in a Highland? Are they even available at the moment?
It's taking them a while to plan a test drive route with no roundabouts I expect.Available from January according to the store in Milton Keynes.
There is a couple of UK videos of the RHD in case anyone missed.
If you consider this a test drive yes - few including my 9 year old & that is in Cambridge - nice cherry red!Anybody had a test drive in a Highland? Are they even available at the moment?
Good luckGot my test drive tomorrow morning. I’ll be potentially moving from a 3P so my expectations will be very different to yours.
Thanks for sharing your experienceJust completed a 30 min test drive of a RWD. I’m coming from a 2019 3P and the short test drive wasn’t long enough for my purposes so having a longer drive again mid week.
I wasn’t as blown away as I thought I would be probably due to the lack of performance and other niggles.
Positives:
The build is better without question.
It’s noticeably quieter and the ride smoother.
Nicer steering wheel.
Better sound system but not massively.
Seats are more comfortable.
Screen is more responsive. Didn’t notice the larger viewing area.
So-so’s:
Not sure if I’m a fan of the ambient lighting.
Did 10 minutes of motorway driving and had 1 hesitation when passing another vehicle.
Negatives:
The parking visualisations are crap. Simple as. Not a patch on the USS in my current Tesla. This is probably the biggest negative.
Gear selection by screen. Didn’t like that much and it certainly doesn’t correctly anticipate the direction you want to drive in. I pulled out of a parking space in a car park and pulled up to the car in front. I stopped and expected the car the reverse back when I next applied power. It didn’t - it would have just moved forward and hit the car in front.
Indicators. I went to grab the stalk on almost every occasion just because of what I’m used to. That said are the buttons better? Absolutely not. Will play havoc in the car rental market for sure.
Felt quite sluggish but I am coming from a 3P. Performance was dull on the RWD. I’d certainly order the AWD.
Booked to have a longer test drive mid-week before I make up my mind to order or keep what I’ve currently got.
Sounds to me, from what you’ve said, that you should probably keep what you’ve got.Booked to have a longer test drive mid-week before I make up my mind to order or keep what I’ve currently got.
Just concerned if I keep my car I have no warranty from March.Sounds to me, from what you’ve said, that you should probably keep what you’ve got.
Negatives seem to vastly outweigh the positives from what you’ve said + that’s before you throw in the step down in performance
