Who leads on what

On each score axis, the model at least 5 points ahead of the next one. Below that we write “tight”.

You are comparing different categories: plug-in hybrid (Jaecoo 8) and combustion (SWM G05). The Range axis does not apply to every model, so we compare on Value, Performance, Safety, and Practicality. Overall scores are not directly comparable across categories.

Incomplete comparison. SWM G05 has no: 0–100 acceleration, top speed, Euro NCAP rating, and boot space. Its strengths may be understated; missing data is neither an advantage nor a disadvantage.
