BAIC Beijing X55 Full Review: And the Chinese Hits keep on coming!

[@mohlomphehi]

What an intro, triggered some nostalgia about times when life was simple.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

We certainly miss those days hey

[@ndyebokopo5598]

What an into indeed

[@rbritsie]

Great review! By far the best ive seen so far covering this vehicle. You've got a fan, for sure

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thank you so much!

[@thevillagemayor392]

Top notch review...the opening sequence🔥🔥.. Baic is really serious about SA market. This one seem like the one to buy

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks so much! Very impressed with the package - still struggle to get how they doing this at the price - economies of scale I guess

[@keithmatthias4348]

@@MariusRobertsProductions nope. Big business is not our friend despite the nonsense in their advertising. They will price as high as they can notwithstanding what their actual production cost is. And now with M/B and BMW extracting more and more out of vehicle sales thru subscription services, for example heated seats, it would be great to see the Chinese also moving further up the market with their offerings. Haval have given part of the market a great kick. Lastly, fully imported products such as Renault and Peugeot are able to compete against VW for instance despite being exposed to import duties illustrates my views about pricing. Now these guys need to get their dealership and servicing locations right, parts and spares available and they will be cooking on gas.

@@keithmatthias4348 Spot on Keith…massive wake up call coming for the ‘big brands’ who bizarrely seem way to slow to react or too arrogant to bother

[@mukatshelwasumbana6217]

This review is much appreciated. I love your delivery style and your choice of filming locations. Thank you.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

[@barrys1342]

SKITTEREND 😊 thank you for putting in such a world class, 1st in class production and review. Respecting your audience and the brand of vehicle stands out for me, assisting us to make better informed decisions. Much appreciated 👌🏽

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks so much for your comment Barry - that really means a lot to me and great to know that people do see / value production values and efforts!

[@qhayiyalinda1512]

Good production, hats off to you for putting together a quality product for us to watch

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thank you so much

[@pieterstrydom4682]

Well done Marius Roberts. I cane accross theis channel by accident and thought this was going to be just another "backyard review". Boy was i surprised. Extremele professional shoot and excellent presentation. You have a new fan.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks so much Pieter! Sadly I don’t get to review cars as often as I used to it would like to as my time is taken up creating content for brands BUT when I get a chance, I’ll be out their reviewing!

[@raxxmoriti]

those DJs always loved to ruin our top 40 tape recorder recordings🤣

[@africanandproud6792]

Thank you brother for yet another awesome review. Keep them coming .

[@bertusfloor]

Amazing review. Very informative, thank you!

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks for the feedback Bertus and glad you found it informative. Impressive car for sure...

[@bonganimgaga7420]

We miss you brother, remember the days of Lindsey and you. You guys are still unmatched

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks Bongani for the kind words! Those were good days indeed… Sorry I am not doing as many reviews as I would like - been busy with other projects and have also had a big shoulder operation so can’t drive for a few months - very frustrating

[@TheRegularGuyReview]

Great review and I can tell you they are flying g off our floor already. Also to note its made the Car of the Year Top 21 after only 3 months and for good reason.

[@Somegirl3602]

Man I really really want one, no joke... Nice intro bro..

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks Khanyo 😊

[@mokgaborona3037]

Beautiful car, excellent camera work, top notch review👌🏾. Just took me back to when you were on our screens📺. Keep on shooting kind Sir, and we will keep on watching. And yes Subscribing also!

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Oh wow Mokgabo thank you for such a cool message! Big smile on my dial… Sadly I am so busy with work with my production business that I don’t get the time to do these reviews as often as I should! I love it though and enjoy doing the filming and editing but it takes time when you a one man band 😊

[@mohamedbhamjee1856]

Hi Marius thanks for the top Review in the market for one

[@nelsonng1946]

How's the car's performance now, after a year in the market? It's going to be launched in Malaysia. I like its styling and space

[@justinforbes8269]

You make me want to buy this car. Good review

[@Scarbir]

Fantastic review. 👌🏻

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thank you!

[@thatolekolwane8162]

Did y'all get the "You'll be an Ass to not consider Chinese products" joke while there's a Donkey on the wallpaper background🤣🤣 well detailed review as always👏

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks Thato - thought I would make it as obvious as possible 🤣

[@jeromemausling6324]

Loved this review. Would be great if you could review and compare the Omoda to the X55

[@kaanerdem2822]

One thing i noticed on these chinese build cars are the front vents are situated strange, not fitted on the coorect space as a passenger you assume to be and i wonder the side airvents will blow the air directly to the side windows as it would foggy on cold weathers.

[@denzeljackson6505]

My issue is long term reliability which we won't be able to tell as it is 1st generation & also the price of parts will be a deciding factor for me. Saw it today spoke to the owner when I sat in it u literally think ur in a space ship. Haven't seen anything for this price that looks like this

[@Mpumzar]

I want this car

[@blessedprincemahlaola4599]

I want to buy it, is it available? I want the top of the range

[@keithduffield5239]

Nice - sneaky little give away the at the end. I don' suppose you have some idea on the EV versions availability.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

What I do know is that the EV battle is intense in China - BAIC we’re the leaders not too long ago but no mention of if / when that could happen. They are more inclined to bring the next size up because the bigger cars are what sell in China BUT locally it’s the size down where they will really make inroads so hopefully they are listening to the input and advise from their local dealers

[@mhb3088]

Nice review man 😊

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks! 👍

[@rizaanjappie]

Top quality production.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Thanks for the positive comments and for watching another review 😊

[@CamoPeng]

@10:25 11.5L/100kms?? 4.2L more than claimed. That is ridiculously bad.

[@AnitaHanjaabFR]

You must be new because most claimed figures are optimistic at best

[@CamoPeng]

@@AnitaHanjaabFR Show me a car with 4.2L more than claimed 😂

What is it with China and 1.5lt engines...

[@isi7565]

Why is no reviewer talking about boot space on this car?

If you recognise the Surname you know my son Darryl.

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

You will not believe it but was actually meeting with people today to try and resolve the issues on my home - it’s been a 7 year nightmare that your son has patiently been dealing with too! Small world…

[@JonMcG]

Marius , havnt you test driven the BAIC B40+ ? are you going to ?

[@MariusRobertsProductions]

Hey Jon Nope, no plans to either...to be honest, am a little frustrated with their older product offering, in particular the B40 because they never properly homologated them for our market! Go take a look at the front seats - the passenger seat has all the adjustments and the driver seat has nothing because its actually a left hand drive car! But try and find a motoring journo who mentions that! Their new products are night and day though...

[@JonMcG]

dude , didnt know you had a channel :)

[@masies6202]

Rather buy a second hand caddy alltrack. I get 7liters per 100. More power 2liter turbo diesel
