2024 GAC GS3 Emzoom R-style Full Review -Yes it's Better than the Coolray, Here's Why / 0-100 tested

[@randomz5208]

GAC is really bringing it. I am drooling for Emzoom empow emkoo and even for a classy GS4 wewewewew. stuck in a gen 2 rav4 haha

[@TechAddict8642]

Got the first batch release of this Emzoom R-Style now 4 weeks old with 2K Odo, super fast and super fuel efficient and definitely a looker, a literal headturner and that 19 inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres men, its talk of the town, the first chinese release car in the PH with tyres same as the Mustang and other high end luxury car brands and thats included in this car for 1.198M? Like WOW.

[@zoman114]

Considering getting one. Is there really no way to shift to sport mode other than via the infotainment system?

Very nice review. I think you're the only one who had in-depth review of its ADAS. Didn't know it had one from other car reviews. Kudos! 🔥

[@jaywalkur]

Glad it was helpful!

[@gregsantos9731]

I enjoyed watching it specially when you drove it on that winding road, yes GAC Emzoom is top on my list.

[@JuliusRantayoJULCZA]

I’m going to gamble for this. 5 years warranty hoping that parts will be readily available.

[@ChanSales]

No horror stories so far. Go for it!

[@elevate38]

Yeah still a gamble. But it has a 5-year warranty and a distributor that is serious with expansion. Good luck and enjoy!🤞

[@stik-ohno917]

its a good gamble. would recommend the R style. driven it multiple times.

[@thetrustysidekick3013]

Now all I need is a GAC dealer near me so I can test this out.

[@geraldg6542]

GAC is such an underrated brand here in the Philippines. Or perhaps it's jus the way the company markets their cars, which perhaps is about to change with the new distributor at the helm.

[@lopezresidence8277]

Agree, Current Distributor of GAC is lacking in dealership distribution throughout the country. Compared mo sa GEELY na talagang aggressive ang Marketing

[@androidnumber1727]

Deymn, makes me want it more bcoz of ur review after watching all d other ones but will probably wait with d shifters. They will hear us for sure haha

[@elevate38]

Same, I'd probably wait for the 2nd gen or refreshed one. Lots of compromises for me with the current release. Also looking forward to the Coolray Cool for 2024.

[@androidnumber1727]

@@elevate38 what else do u think needs to be added aside from shifters? For me i guess android play and im set.

[@brandobandit819]

Paddle shifters or manual mode

[@rdr33]

How is the sunroof insulation cover holding up? It looks pretty thin and I'm worried that it might allow light and heat to permeate the cabin and offset the AC.

[@winchellemarienavales9466]

Review on a different angle surely gives this car a consideration. One question, though. Since shifters are not present, how do you best go with stiff / incline road? Say Baguio or Antipolo. Tyia.

[@fhstudioPH]

For this body color, you don't need to apply wax? Just wondering. Planning to buy this unit this week. 😊

[@revinvillegas4618]

I like the intro music. Keep it up!

[@Mabrook2024]

The coolray still has the best DCT tuning among chinese cars. Its still the smoothest. The territory is jerky- almost same as the GS3 emzoom. But this GS3 is really a looker. Almost like a fighter jet.

[@GS-sh4kb]

I test drove the next gen Territory and did not find the transmission jerky. Are you commenting based on owner’s experience?

[@marclauritzensoriano9086]

I think the practical use of that kind of door handles is you would notice if you forgot to lock your doors

[@JoxAtienza]

re-watched again for the nth time haha! I think I'm still going for the Emzoom (contenders are GCR, Jetour X70 Sport, and Yaris Cross) 6 months to go before I buy! Suggestion for future reviews: Would be nice to see a foot cam when you are doing twisties

[@rayryanroz1326]

Yes dont need paddle shifters. Need 4 cylinder engine not 3 cylinder like coolray. I had enough of the 3 cylinder sh... sorry to say. Got my new R style last Feb . Really amazing

[@kimallenreyes4390]

Really great review as always. I have my gs4 for a year already. Great car but wanted this emzoom badly.

[@jaywalkur]

Thank you!

[@St3PdOwN2UrL3v3L]

Hi sir, how's your GS4 after a year? I'm torn between this and the GS4. Hesitant lang talaga ako sa DCT versus Aisin transmission ng GS4

[@kimallenreyes4390]

@@St3PdOwN2UrL3v3L No worries at all. Wala akong naging problem ever since I got it as my first car. Driving is smooth for a first time driver here. Not sure how it compares with emzoom's driving experience but GS4 seem to be focused on comfort and space. That's one of the top reasons why the current owners bought GS4 based in our group chat m. Hope this helps and hopefully you got the chance to test drive both.

[@frostdanblox2874]

Which one is louder though? Empow or Emzoom

@@AaronJomy I think its fine.. I'm not really a techy o very particular with engine. As long as I had a smooth drive I'm fine with it😁 there's only one thing that really freaks me out & bother me when I hear the exhaust pipe gargling.

[@ericksonong]

great review and intro! now waiting for the anti Chinese car bashers in the comments section hehe

[@jaywalkur]

Thanks!

[@jonmanilenio]

Emzoom has better fuel mileage. The new Coolray no longer has paddle shifters. If we're to compare the Coolray and the Emzoom, the R-style variant definitely outclasses the Coolray Sport, but in the base and mid variants, the Coolray still has the upper hand, if you only consider what features you're getting, not considering the price difference, engine, and fuel efficiency where the Emzoom holds sway.

[@acc1tester398]

without paddle/manual mode, how would you do engine braking when going down from Baguio for example?

Gac nambawan na talaga, question nalang is yung aftersales nila, matutulad kaya sila sa geely? Na sa lahat ng forums/groups na nakita ko puro reklamo regarding replacement parts etc. Sa mga owners po ng gac cars kamusta po after sales nila?

[@hyunwookang2091]

I like how this car always being compared to old model coolray thats been 3 years old in the market..considering there are other vehicles out there with the same year model lets just wait for the new model coolray if ever it comes out in the PH market then compare it…on top of that this is a chinese vehicle its would be better comparing it with the other contenders in the market like japanese, korean, european and american brands…since people will still bash that knowing this is a chinese vehicle all chinese vehicle almost sharing the same bit of the vehicle..not hating on the car I do like the looks and specs of it. Also not sure why ADAS is so important considering people getting more lazy and not being attentive on the road for me the biggest plus is only the Autonomous braking in all cars because sometimes unexpected things happens on the road. But anyway good review..😊

Emzoom and coolray has somewhat the same cockpit orientation. Both crossovers are a mighty fine beast. When the new coolray 2024 will arrive in the country, with upgraded 4cyliner engine, and more new tech ang ADAS, meron nang totoong katapat ang emzoom R style.

On a side note, the new Coolray (not yet in the Philippines) does have ADAS and 300Nm of torque will again take the SUV crown if it arrive in the Philippine.
