That dash looks like a rip off of the newish c class, only much much cheaper!
We were through in the St James shopping centre earlier today where they were promoting this monstrosity:
The sales people were highlighting the fact that this is one of the first in the UK. I had a Ford Capri (C922 AES) way back in the day, this just looks like another overpriced generic electric SUV with the name badge.
That Lego is looking so realistic nowadays.
That said, what a hideous monstrosity that will spend its life outside a gym.
TBH, I don't hate it. If it was just called the Ford Razzle, Ford Penthouse, or Ford Readers' Wives Bums and thus carrying on the tradition of naming Fords after popular jazz mags then it would be just another generic electric SUV for me to ignore. By calling it Capri, they have made it a target. Much like the Mustang Mach E....
Probably made it first and then decided a name. Another generic EV SUV, but they need a way to get it noticed.
It's no surprise the Chinese are storming the EV market. When you are making cars which are all the same bland appliance, people are just going to buy the cheapest.

Funny thing is, it will probably stay as one of the only ones as I can't see a reason anyone will buy one. Is it meant to be bigger than the Mach e? Trying to work out what segment it goes in.We were through in the St James shopping centre earlier today where they were promoting this monstrosity:

I had a similar Q. I guess Mustang is their premium brand tho, so maybe this is going to come in way cheaper?

Yeah shame it isn't in green. Diesel too? Wtf
Majority of modern Alpinas are diesel fashion accessories. They started that with the E90.

TBH if I lived in Germany and had to bomb up and down the autobahn every day, I'd buy an Alpina diesel
