The charm of MINI is also found in this cute little car that costs just over 100,000 yuan.

From the current time point of view, EuRa Cat can no longer be regarded as a new car, but with the appearance of models such as Mini Cat, Lightning Cat, and Punk Cat and EuRa’s gradual clarification of its wish to become a “more lovable women’s car brand,” EuRa has also succeeded in breaking out of certain restraints. After all, it seems that only EuRa can achieve the exquisite and retro, small yet affordable in one car model. So, at this time, reviewing EuRa’s Cat, which was released in November last year, will somewhat give people a profound sense of brand pioneers.

This time, in the test drive event, the Cat did not go alone, but brought along a Mini Cooper. This is not to say that the Cat is crazy enough to compare the handling and driving with the Mini Cooper, but rather to showcase its charm from a design perspective. It is undeniable that the Cat’s big round headlights really have a bit of the taste of the Mini Cooper, and the round and smooth lines from front to back always make people unable to resist complimenting it with “This car is so cute.” And regardless of gender, everyone thinks so.

Compared to the White Cat and the Black Cat, the Cat’s higher price is reasonable. In terms of appearance design, its retro appearance has a sense of harmony with this era’s aesthetics and will not make people feel out of place. In terms of interior design, it is really willing to use its heart and money. First of all, the entire interior design adopts a dual-tone treatment, and the warm color matching gives people a very cozy feeling visually. Secondly, in terms of the materials used, the Cat has also used soft materials in the areas often touched by hands, and the door panels also have stitch processing, with very detailed attention to detail.

To be frank, the inside and outside design of the Cat can be summarized as exquisite and perfect. But this is not brainwashing, because it should also be done from its selling price.

Since EuRa has decided to focus on the female market, after handing in a relatively ideal answer on the static side, can it also achieve the same excellence in the dynamic aspect? (Although most female users may be least concerned about this, we cannot ignore this aspect.)

Assuming a score of 10 for good cat’s static experience, for the driving experience, I would rate it an 8. Let’s start with the advantages. With the inherent advantage of being pure electric, the power output of Good Cat can be described as smooth and unobstructed. Moreover, with its small size and light weight, Good Cat can move flexibly at any time and place. For Good Cat, you really don’t need to pay much attention to its horsepower and torque, as long as you don’t drive it recklessly, everything just feels right.

One thing that surprises me is Good Cat’s steering. I thought it would be like mainstream electric cars that cost over 100,000 yuan, either too light or too sticky, without any sense of high-end damping. But Good Cat is not like that. Its steering feel gives a comfortable sensation, not because it lacks precise placement but because every time you need to turn the steering wheel, your hands are willing to do it.

As for why I deducted 2 points from 10, it’s because of Good Cat’s “hardness”. The seat and suspension are a bit hard to tolerate. It’s hard to imagine that a car with such a gentle and sweet exterior and interior can go in the opposite direction in the most important aspect of riding comfort. Of course, compared to the MINI COOPER next to it, Eulai Good Cat is still very soft and comfortable.

The Poseidon version of Good Cat priced at 143,900 yuan has a range of 500 km. This achievement is no longer limited to the level of city commuting but rather has the ability to travel. Therefore, don’t think that Good Cat will be weak in range like its size, otherwise it will be easily labeled as “shortsighted”.

The configuration of the excellent cat top model (Poisson version for test driving) could be summarized by the sentence “small but complete”. With LED headlights, LCD instrument panel, L2-level assisted driving, 360° panorama imaging, automatic parking, keyless entry, driving recorder, wireless charging, heated/massage seats, automatic air conditioning, OTA upgrade, etc., there is no flaw to be found.

While the Lightning Cat, the Punk Cat and other models have not yet been officially launched, the excellent cat represents the highest industrial standard of Euler. In terms of appearance, interior design, and driving feeling, the excellent cat will leave a colorful and indelible mark for Euler. It’s certain that Euler put its heart into the excellent cat. It’s worth mentioning that Euler recently launched a GT model of the excellent cat. As its name implies, the new model has more sports vehicle attributes, proving the success of the excellent cat. Perhaps one day in the future, Euler will not only be a brand for women’s cars but also a king for both men and women.
