9. Any comments on the general layout and design of the car’s interior? Is every part of the car simple to use?  How do you feel about the quality of the buttons and the knobs in the car?

P: In the F3 it is the leather interior. I think they put a lot of sound suppression because it is very quiet inside the car. All I could hear is the guy sitting beside me saying, “慢一点，慢一点 (slow down, slow down).” And every part is easy to handle. I like how the dashboard is laid out and it is easy to read. But some parts look cheap. If you look closely, the fonts of the window buttons and the buttons on the dashboard are so different. They have three different fonts. The color of the letters is light. But they are supposed to be the same font.

T: All controls are within reach.

D: Mirror adjustament fine, foglights better in F3 than F6. Bounet of F0 opening a little different to find, but ok when it is known.

G: (F3) The clutch is soft and the interior design is not good, they’d better invite the professional designer to design the interior space.

O: (F3) The interior design is not good and especially the console system looks old and it doesn’t fit with the overall car.

DC: The interiors are simple but look OK. I haven’t tried any of the buttons.
