BACK TO CHINA!! Cars are getting EVEN CRAZIER…

WE'RE BACK IN CHINA BABY!! This time, we actually GET TO DRIVE the INSANE Chinese cars...
Zeekr-a Geely group company that owns Volvo, Polestar, Lotus, and many other companies-has invited Matt from CarSauce to visit China again, this time to take a look at all of their upcoming new models coming to Australia. The Zeekr X and Zeekr 009 are hitting Aussie shores by the end of the year, and Matt flew over to review them.
In this vlog, we're going to head from Melbourne, Australia to Shanghai, China - to travel with Zeekr to see how they make their cars, and then drive their crazy cars on Ningbo International Track. But we also see all of the other Chinese car brands while in China, like Li Auto, BYD, GWM, Lynk & Co, DongFeng, and so many more.
So join Matt from CarSauce on this crazy new adventure to China in just 2 months, to see an even more in-depth journey to the Chinese automotive industry!

Here at CarSauce, we review every new car on the market. We are a community of sauce givers and we'd love for you to subscribe and join our community!
We give every car "the sauce", test their 0-100km/h, and see whether or not they are worth purchasing and spending your hard-earned cash on.
From time to time, we'll also buy a weird and wacky car and take you on the journey with me! We release videos every Sunday 5pm AEST / AEDT with the latest new car reviews!
Your feedback is important, so if you want to see us do something new or something you would like me to change let me know! Got a question for me? Leave it in the comments! I try and respond to them all!

Matt and Jacob. Your tour is beyond excellent. I think that I just seen the future of motoring and it's amazing. I've got a relative who is skeptical about buying Chinese cars, although, I'm open to buying one or more. I reminded him that we've had two wars with Germany, his favourite country from which to source cars, and from which I bought my first car. I also indicated that we've also had one war with Japan which is a nation from which he has never purchased although I've had a number of Japanese cars. He won't but Korean or American cars although I've had numbers of both. He loves British brands, although I've had several including an EType Jaguar. I'm an Anglo Australian. Two years before the Beijing Olympics we toured comprehensively through China via Beijing and bullet train to The Terra Cotter Warriors. Flying a number of legs. Numbers of huge cities, and cruising down the Yangtze River and flew into Singapore. My uncle and aunt accompanied Australian PM Gough Whitlam and opened up China to the Western World. Also, a relative is an Anglo Aussie who was a captain on a Chinese international airline. My 18 year old nephew recently bought a new Testa. He does something in secret IT. I don't understand how EVs works and am comfortable with my new adventurous green Kia Picanto Sport

Great video 10/10, so excited for the future of EVs 👌

I watch till the end, very good filming and editing. Pronounce "Hung-zhou" 😀 Not Hang as in hanging, is Hung as in Hunk. 杭州

Huawei cars will have the auto drive feature, and I'd love it to respond to my order to auto start and auto park like batman's car

The haters used to say sh!tty things about Japanese and Korean cars always inferior to Western Brands. Look at them today. So why is it surprising to see Chinese brands doing great in fact better than everyone else esp. EV's?

Have just spent a weekend in Hanghzou. Renting a speed bycicle to go around Westlake, tea plantations, city rides. Absolutely gorgeous. If you have a chance, you should go too. I live in Thailand ,so an easy hop.

[@JianYZhong]

Fun video, how nice to be invited to go to China and Korea. It would be nice if your friend Jacob had been with you. Jacob and you make a great team. 👍

Have stayed in a bread and brekfast, at the Westlake, secomd time. They had 7 rooms. Breakfast prepared by the owner. There was a guest lady from Guangzhou ( Canton ) who sang spontanously songs. So human and intimate.

[@azzamatic4190]

Thank you for this very informative video

[@meteora8888]

Damn nice cars!!

[@luckytiger123]

btw, you pronounce 'Hangzhou' very well..

[@Geometric-Rate]

This was a really good video and it really shows how much we are lagging in the west about bringing innovation to market. Good car I insights and help dispel the huge misunderstanding about China and it's people. Brought back good memories of 2008 when I was theren😊

A Wall Street Journal video report on Chinese cars said the fit and finish were less than perfect than a Tesla. That was funny, because an auto dealer who buys and sells cars in Southern California told me that Tesla's car's fit and finish were terrible. lol

[@lionelzhu5582]

[@TheCARLOANExpert]

Time for an open world Forza game sets in China?

Baidu's robot taxis (萝卜快跑) have already completed more than 5 million orders to transport passengers in 11 different cities in China. In Wuhan, you can directly book a driverless taxi to take you from the airport to the city center at a very low price. It's a good chance to have a try if you are in China.

[@daffyduck4195]

I felt little apprehensive when the fast driver of the first car said he was a China's GT champion. Kino, driver on the second car, was a great conversationalist with 1 word spoken. The Aussie says the all expense paid by Zeeker does not influence his take on cars a bit, then goes on to ooze and ahhhhzz the accommodation. LOL

[@Eric-qp1tv]

Great video and can’t wait to see the 7X land in Australia! By the way the word Geely should be pronounced as Jeely😊

[@youtuberpov]

[@vladimiryezhov3521]
