What reviewers say
The Forthing V9 is a large seven-seater people mover offered in the UAE as either a conventional hybrid or a plug-in hybrid. The plug-in pairs a turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine with electric motors, and claims up to 160 km of electric-only driving. Its cabin is tech-heavy, with a 41-inch triple-screen dashboard, a head-up display, and massage, heated and ventilated seats.
Practical touches include power sliding doors, a power tailgate and a 360-degree camera, plus adaptive cruise control and a broad set of driver aids. Drawbacks are its length of over 5.2 m, which complicates parking, front-wheel drive only, and a small dealer network of two showrooms.
