Nobody realy talked Bad over Japanese cars. Even hyundai is well known for good cars at least for 20 years. Chinese cars on the other gand, is something I will NEVER buy. Everyone who I know tries to avoid Chinese products (it's basically impossible to avoid 100%) Why? Because china is the biggest copycat. They simply copied everything last 40 years. It's ridiculous. They just stole ideas, engineering and gave a fck of patents and immaterial property.

Great video. American car companies are worried - they can't compete with what's coming out of the Chinese auto market. Hence the need for tariffs to keep them out of the US. If you can't compete, keep them out.

That's only part of it. It's wanting to keep China down and "spying" out as much as it is wanting to prop up manufacturers. But also remember the best selling vehicle in the US is the f150, which there is no competition for anywhere in the world. So a Chinese sedan or sports car represents very little economic threat.

[@tren133]

@@JackieDing86 If I were to actually buy one I'd probably go for the cheaper base trim with single motor and smaller battery. Still plenty powerful for weekend drives, and most likely handles better and more fun to drive because it is RWD and significantly lighter than the AWD big battery version of the car.

[@chuckqian3863]

the SU7U will be available early next year in China. hope to see u rocking one around a track！su7本身真的蛮好开的

[@AprezaRenaldy]

The most important moment in the history of the Chinese car industry. It was when the Minister of Technology and Industry realized that China would never be able to compete with Japanese, American or European car companies in internal combustion engines . And strive to allocate all state resources to electric cars in 2009. And make EV a strategic industry .

[@JeffGu-i1z]

Dude.China export interal comp engine cars much more than Evs.😅

[@tren133]

People always claim this, yet the absolute most efficient ICE production engines in the world today are made by Geely and BYD (yes that BYD) which power the massive PHEV sales boom going on in China today, and will soon flood international markets as the death knell for pure ICE vehicles. Chinese carmakers might not have performance ICE tech down, but they are at leading positions on mass market ICE tech, particularly pertaining to fuel efficiency. It is just that they are even farther ahead on EV tech, especially on the scale and supply chain side. But make no mistake, it probably won't be Chinese BEVs that really put the screws on traditional western carmakers, but rather their industry leading PHEVs.

[@AprezaRenaldy]

@@JeffGu-i1z This is irrelevant as the majority of ICE are to Russia were Sanctions by the west.

[@AprezaRenaldy]

@@tren133 BYD makes the most efficient hybrid Not the most efficient ICE . If Japanese and Chinese car hybrid batteries are thrown away . Japan will win in efficiency

[@tren133]

@@AprezaRenaldy Perhaps, but pure ICE vehicles is literally an end of life product at this point. BEV is in the medium future, and PHEV/EREVs are the near term bridge towards that BEV future 20 or 30 years down the line. And China is in the drivers seat for both PHEV and BEVs. If the Japanese automakers want to continue to cling on to making pure ICE vehicles (corollary is if the American automakers want to continue to cling on to making pure ICE trucks and massive SUVs), then their descent into irrelevance and/or insolvency will only be further accelerated. They can struggle along in their home markets so long as their governments are willing to use tax dollars and tariff walls to keep propping them up, but the Chinese PHEVs are coming for them in any and every international market across the world, and they have no competitive models that can respond to that coming tidal wave of Chinese plug in vehicles.

I think you should upgrade the brake pads for su7 because the stock pads are not track ready. The official track package costs 600 usd that includes track ready brake pads and fluids.

Polestar is a stand alone brand of Geely since 2017, Volvo sold most of its stock. Polestar is a rapidly failing company. Sales dropping at 40% last quarter, layoffs from management to board to line workers - down 15% ytd. Polestar Board Chair Håkan Samuelsson will retire following the Company’s AGM.
