    Oh, here we go again. Another “close test” where the Chinese saloon gets photographed next to a Tesla and everyone pretends it’s a fair fight. Remember the Ora Funky Cat and the “premium” wannabes back in the day? All that rang the same bell about copying Tesla’s blank iPad-on-wheels cabin, then vanished from the conversation. This one’s different only in the sense that the IM5 actually feels finished.
