    Picked up our Harbour Grey BYD Sealion 6 Premium AWD in Auckland last Friday and immediately took it on a 1,040 km loop down to Taupo, Rotorua, and back.

      Harbour Grey with the 19-inch alloys looks super sharp. 5.3 L/100km over the Waikato Expressway and Rotorua hills in an AWD SUV is unreal.

        @C_Morris_SE How did you find the double-glazed acoustic front windows on New Zealand coarse-chip seal highways?
