What owners actually said

Every line below says which it is. A quote is somebody's own words on the platform named. A summary is ours, drawn from published coverage — and never put inside quote marks.

“If Deepal wants to really compete with byd they should launch SUV with 200 mm ground clearance before leopard 3. 175 is not enough for Nepal.”
