The good news about Chinese brands piling into our market is that it's driving down prices and driving up value. To take just one example, were it not for a government grant, Ford's little Puma GEN-E would retail at nearly as much as this family-sized and luxuriously equipped SUV. You can see why the European brands are terrified of the Chinese invasion.
Fortunately for them, the Orientals have a few rough edges to smooth out on their way to world domination. You won't buy this car because of how it looks, early reports say the ADAS features are intrusive and the 'Lotus' association turns out to be more of a marketing strapline. But you can't ignore the value proposition here: it's exceptional. Perhaps one day, Geely's cars might be too. For the time being this one, the EX5, is merely difficult to ignore.
