For them, a coupe with a personality appearance, fast running, and a price that is close enough to the people is definitely the first choice for the first time to buy a car.
In the past sports car market, Honda Civic and Volkswagen Golf were the first young consumers to think of, but now that independent brands continue to exert their strength in the market, the 100,000-level sports car market is no longer a joint venture model.
For example, the MG MG5 Scorpio and Shadow Leopard that we want to talk about today are sports models created by independent brands for a new generation of young consumers, and the two models are also extremely hot in the market.
Then, from the perspective of consumer car purchase, the same model as the main sports, MG MG5 Scorpio and Shadow Leopard who is more powerful, can serve as the first choice for 100,000-level coupes, let's find out below.
Whose appearance is more appetizing to young people?
Young people buying a car is very important to the appearance of the vehicle, after all, the cool appearance can better meet the eclectic personality of contemporary young people, and can also meet their refusal to be the same design.
Here, mg5 Scorpio and Shadow Leopard are very good at fighting, but their design characteristics are very different.
The overall silhouette of the MG5 Scorpio is basically the same as that of the ordinary version of the car, but for many upgrades in the details, the whole car looks more sporty. For example, a more radical front face design is adopted, and the inverted grille is matched with split headlights, giving people a bad sense of sight. In particular, the blackened segmented front shovel of the lower encirclement makes the front face more three-dimensional and combative visually.
Looking at the side of the car, the MG5 Scorpio continues the consistent slip-back design, while the slip line and the A-pillar form a 137.5-degree gold angle, creating the ultimate design aesthetic. At the same time, the black glass window frame, the black exterior mirror shell, the black rim, the red brake caliper and other details of the design once again strengthen the sporty attributes of the whole vehicle.
In the rear part, the overall design echoes the front face, and the suspension tail, the bilateral four-out exhaust layout and the exaggerated black diffuser at the bottom further enhance the sporty atmosphere of the vehicle.

The shadow leopard's exterior design, as its name suggests, has a good sense of sportiness and aggression. The front face is composed of a large grille and a geometric shape of the appearance kit, with the radical headlights on both sides and the body paint paint painted in color blocking, the overall sense of movement is also very distinct.
In addition, the duck tail of materials such as slip-back shape, bilateral four-out exhaust layout, imitation carbon fiber and other materials makes the whole vehicle look extra sporty, but the visual sense always gives people a feeling of excessive force.
Overall, in terms of exterior design, MG5 Scorpio and Shadow Leopard are also the main sports style, but park the two models together to see, obviously mg5 Scorpio design on the basis of sports is more fashionable and trendy.
Whose configuration is richer and easier to use?
After encountering a model that is favored by the appearance, the second biggest car purchase focus of young people is to sit in the car and fully feel the inner engineering of the model in terms of interior design and intelligence.
After all, in the current era when everything can be interconnected, the richness of vehicle intelligence has covered many sectors of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

In terms of interior, mg5 Scorpio adopts the popular dual screen design, and a large number of soft materials in the interior are wrapped with high-brightness black and obsidian black chrome metal brushed material trim, making the interior look more grade.

As far as the interior as a whole is concerned, the interiors of the two models have their own advantages, but the MG5 Scorpio is undoubtedly more novel and interesting in the creation of a luxurious atmosphere and the design of the steering wheel supersport button and the detailed design of the door upwards.
As for the configuration level, in order to ensure fairness, we select similarly priced configuration models to compare, namely MG5 Scorpio Trophy Sport Ultimate Edition (guidance price: 114,900 yuan) and Shadow Leopard 270T J15 version (guidance price: 118,000 yuan).
