EVO3 Terrible quality and unreliable
I purchased a DR EVO3 in 2024 due to financial constraints, attracted by its lower price compared to other cars on the market.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be one of the worst decisions I’ve ever made: the overall quality of the vehicle is shockingly poor.
After just a year and a half of use, the car has shown numerous and recurring issues:
- The interior materials are extremely fragile: the driver's floor mat is completely torn under the weight of my feet, with visible gashes—not just normal wear and tear.
- The driving experience is terrible: the clutch engages in an unnatural and uncomfortable way, unlike anything I’ve experienced in other vehicles.
- The infotainment display often freezes, and you have to wait several minutes before it's usable again.
- One of the most annoying issues: the air conditioning settings pop-up appears randomly, even when no related button has been touched.
- In recent weeks, the LPG system fails to activate at startup: the control panel beeps and the only way to get it to work is to turn the car off, wait a few seconds, and restart it.
- The most serious issue has been with the suspension system: after just one year, the car began showing major problems with the shock absorbers, making the ride unstable and unsafe, with loud clunky noises (like a tractor).
I’ve been waiting over 3 months for replacement parts. Despite multiple reports, the issue still hasn’t been resolved.
I also requested a replacement car from customer service due to the delay in sourcing parts, but it was denied.
Total lack of professionalism.
The only positive aspect?
The 70-liter LPG tank, which gives you around 600 km per fill, depending on your driving style.
But that’s nowhere near enough to compensate for the vehicle’s many structural flaws.
If you’re considering this car, I’ll just say this: don’t make the same mistake I did.
Is it slightly cheaper? Maybe. But the quality is unacceptable, even at this price point.
