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.

“I have been driving the Skywell ET5 (also known as BE11) for quite some time, and I am extremely satisfied with it. Many of the negative points mentioned in this video do not reflect the real experience of actual users. The car exceeds my expectations in terms of comfort and technology. Its quiet drive, spacious interior, and strong battery performance make everyday use very convenient.”

“Buy one if you dont mind it having no support and becoming worthless because its obscure chinese manufacturer has moved on long before the 7 year warranty runs out.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“The lack of any NCAP-rating alone would be a dealbreaker for me, even IF I could look past all its other shortcomings...”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“I cannot imagine dropping this kind of money on a previously unheard of brand. That's before we get to the fact that it's a below average package and performance in every single way.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“The ground clearance is 190mm, which is perfect for Nepal's roads, and the interior looks much more premium than other Chinese EVs.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“At nearly 90 lakhs for the top variant, it is entering a price bracket where buyers might look at more established brands despite the high range.”
