Overview

The Micro Panda 2017, based on the Geely LC/Gleagle Panda, is a popular budget hatchback assembled locally by Micro Cars. It provides an affordable entry into car ownership for many buyers who might otherwise consider older Japanese models or smaller Indian alternatives. Recognised for its distinctive "bionic" design inspired by a giant panda, it stands out with a unique personality in the entry-level segment. Powered by a 1.3L engine, the Panda offers a notable power advantage over its 800cc and 1.0L competitors. It appeals to first-time car buyers, students, and small families seeking a vehicle that balances low running costs with a relatively modern feature set for its price point.

Driver Insights

4.5
out of 5

Owners value the Micro Panda 2017 for its lively performance in city traffic. Feedback indicates that the steering is light, making parking and U-turns easy in tight urban spaces. On open roads, the additional power from the 1.3L engine facilitates easier overtaking compared to smaller city cars. However, drivers note that the gear shift can feel a bit rubbery, and although the suspension is soft, it can cause body roll during cornering. Overall, it is seen as a fun and practical car for everyday use.

Exterior Design
The exterior styling is the car's most polarizing feature. The front end mimics a panda bear, with large circular headlights (eyes) and a wide grille (mouth). The rear tail lamps are shaped like panda paws, adding to the whimsical theme. While some find it cute and distinctive, others may prefer more conventional styling. The rounded shape creates a compact footprint, ideal for squeezing into small parking spots.
