The BAW Pony EV is in the popular square box design, and from its stylish and nondescript appearance it could rather be mistaken for a large toy car. The closed front fascia is complemented by rounded rectangular headlights with blue trim, and the new BAW letter badge made by BAIC is located in the center, emphasizing the brand’s personality.
In addition, symmetrical thin stripes have been added on the new car on both sides of the front bar, which is a finer detailing and at the same time enhances the recognizability of the entire vehicle.

Air vents penetrating into the cabin, a dual-spoke multifunction steering wheel and a padded gearshift mechanism all make for a decent layout.
