The Mabilis Sandgrouse is a practical and reliable 5 door hatchback, intended for use as a small family car. Unlike the Halimaw, designed to be a fun car first and a practical car second, this car was designed entirely around practicality and safety. It had a more spacious back seat, was easier to drive, required less maintenance, had more room for cargo, and was overall more comfortable. Mabilis traded speed and power for reliability in the engine. It was naturally aspirated, relatively low revving, quite small, and an absolute tank. Many owners reported going over 500,000 miles before suffering major issues. Despite this, there were still traces of Mabilis' fun spirit. The car was relatively light, the steering was nimble, the gearbox was strong and responsive. The Sandgrouse sold well, and soon got sedan and wagon versions in the late 2000s with the 3rd generation. Also thanks @dog_husky for some advice on shading and proportions, it really helped!
