This car looks perfect. Super boring car for real boring people.

Leapmotor has a special shelf protected from the airbag so the collectables don’t turn into shrapnel.

Ah I understand. Well maybe it would be nice to see your unrestrained opinion at the bottom of the article or something like that 🙂

Well every taxi in SEA has the dash full of Buddha statues, so I guess that won't help the airbags either

Thank you for your feedback. The " British journalist style " is intended. I become like child playing with a new toy every time I test a new car. My "over enthusiasm" may become sounding like sponsored sales speech as a result.

Telescope? Where the shelf was full of collectibles?

However, questions remain about how these add-ons might affect airbag deployment in a collision—a consideration Leapmotor will need to address.

I saw on a youtube channel that apparently the airbag deploys from the top surface of the dashboard, so as long as all accessories are below the top set of holes then it seems alright.

But one thing I notice is these Sunday drive articles are always written in a very reserved and frankly British journalist style. Is that intended? You can afford to show some more spirit!
