GAC is a really underestimated sleeping giant in china not only with the AION-brand. They started with some amazing conceptcars, with a lot of brands and manufacturing for foreign brands too. Now with AION they establish a cool electric brand with graphene battery and top specs. Also with a big VAN in luxury market in the arabian market too. The western brands will get complte new competition and there will be no more big numbers to be relaxed in luxury market for Daimler, Audi and BMW they dream of without loosing market share significantly.

[@Lifecoach7Ra]

But at least their arrogance keeps growing instead of thinking iPhone they still make Nokias and telling people about their heritage. After driving for 54 years I had quite a lot of good European cars but their time is over even compared to ‚just‘ a KIA EV6 AWD. So now also GAC is coming and it‘s insane indeed!😎😜

I like the GAC. It just has that exotic sport car vibe to it.

[@chris27gea58]

That torque number is at the tyre contact patch. It isn't a motor characteristic. Motor torque is multiplied by gearing. Good to see that GAC is working on high performance electric motors, however. The power consumption claim relates to power consumed by the on board charging circuitry. SiC chips are more efficient - less waste heat that needs to be dissipated. I have no idea whether the claimed improvements are realistic, however.

The AION Y is a nice car to,, affordable, fast charging with 600volts, very good range, and awesome new tech batteries with 1 million km garanty.

There's so much cache behind the luxury racing brands like Ferrari, Bugatti, Lambo, AMG or Maclaren... No way a new Chinese brand can compete for the cache that comes with a rich brand history. They are simply a different set of buyers.

Hi Sam, I love the channel mate but please respect your viewers that are TRUE car enthusiasts. Please try not to offend people and the industry by comparing a Chinese start-up Supercar to brands like Ferrari and Bugatti. It's a 488GTB not a 486 and you may want to check the value of 458's and 488's before claiming they will be worth nothing in a few years. These cars are an incredible investment if you have the money to get in the game. FYI Bugatti and Rimac are the same company, but sales of the W16 Bugatti are in superior demand compared to the Rimac. All Bugatti's will be full electric from now on anyway but there is room in this world to accept the beauty in all types of engineering greatness. I DO love your content about technology and the future of the industry but you are missing the point if you think acceleration is the one thing that makes one super car better than another.

[@ciybersal9833]

At this price point wealthy buyers look for brand as well as bragging rights. 1.9 seconds to 60 for $200k will appeal to millions around the world. And yes Chinese EVs are now extremely competitive to these Bugattis and Rimacs in the same way as Nio is to BBA

[@stevehayward1854]

It's still the Roadster for me Sam

[@johnsonmaurice98]

Sam when it comes to high performance and off road ICE vehicles, think horses and sail boats. Both of those were supplanted by Steam then ICE engines yet they have a steady group of loyal enthusiast over past 100 years that enjoy them and in the case of sail boats have even advanced the technology to the point of carbon fiber hydrofoils that fly above the water at twice the speed of conventional sail boats. I think off road, muscle car, sports cars and supercar manufactures will offer their wares in three categories. ALL ENGINE for those who enjoy the complexity, noise, rumble and art of the internal combustion engine. And they will continue to advance the technology. Like sailboats and horses they won’t be the most advanced or fastest or most powerful forms of transport but they will have a charm or beauty of their own. HYBRID cars will combine the two allowing ICE enthusiast to enjoy the beauty and charm of the internal combustion engine and performance (nearly) of an EV. ALL EV - the average car buyer (economy, standard, luxury) will insist on an EV for the efficiency, quiet operation, low cost and appliance like reliability and trouble free operation. Look at it another way, quartz mechanical watches pioneered by the Japanese in the 70’s then digital watches became the most accurate, cheap, reliable and durable type of time pieces. Yet nearly all expensive and desired watches are “automatic” Swiss movement - an antiquated design which must be wound up or moved every so often to keep it running. Go figure. “Enthusiast” like complicated old technologies and there are millions of them who pay out the nose to enjoy the cool old stuff.

[@BlondieSuperdog]

Hey Mr Amerboyo; before you suggest something make sure it isn't you who need the information. How much does a Tesla model Y weight? How much does a Corolla hybrid weigh? These are the two most popular cars in each category. If you agree the Y is much heavier; then it takes more CO2 to build. It also takes proportionally more energy to move F=MA. This extra weight largely nullifies the efficient electric motors. So you are left with more energy to build more CO2. IF you charge off the grid and not solar you have the added cost of CO2 at the power generation plant to push the heavy car; this actually gives a hybrid a CO2 advantage particularly if that hybrid can commute all electric. BECAUSE the full EV weights 40% more. Even if you are using solar you need 40% more to push the heavier car. Perhaps you'd say a corolla and a Tesla are not in the same class - fine the same thing holds if you cut the size of the battery in a model 3 by 85% and make it into a hybrid. It will stilll be 800 lbs lighter, and able to drive about 60 miles all electric because you can dispose of the heavy battery and its heavy protective enclosure; swapping in a 300 lb motor; could be ethanol or bio desiel but even a gas engine will burn far less fossil fuel ; and drive all commute miles full electric. In that senerio there is not way a heavy full EV can match a hybrid in being green; can you have the exact same features other than long charge times the big battery has. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWKoaYaHmcpoqM0. Am I against electric cars? No I have an Aptera on order but I don't think it will ever be made at this point so I am looking for another Green EV so far I haven't found any.

There is no tesla roadster. There was a prototype. All electric cars have huge bhp and acceleration and torque. The rimmac is expensive but amazing. You might not like a flat plane crank or the dawn chorus of a v8 or v12. Speed limits stop fast cars its about the engine note like a concert pianist on acid. I like evs and ice but ev might have super performance but is heavy and petrol supercars will keep going up as they have soul. A 10 year old nissan leaf is worth as much as a 10yrs old casio watch but rolex have gone up. Its about brand passion looks sound and smell the basic laws of attraction. Evs been around 100 yrs or so also and now govts forcing change and fuel being constrained to keep prices high are people looking to change. Evs will keep inflation high due to their huge inflated prices and dont solve shipping,planes and heavy freight. Don't get me started on the fossil fueled grid to power them. They cut polution and I am enjoying last of ice age and don't love in a city. Telling me to not buy a gas car makes me want to more as I had a american ev 3 yrs ago and was painful. Infrastructure and choice and tech will improve until then I am lovimg the ice age. Evs work for some but not the many.

EVs aren't able to compete in any real race because they have very poor range at high speeds. There isn't an EV that exists today which could beat a Prius from Munich to Berlin on the autobahn; because they all would need to charge at least 2 and likely 3 times for at least a delay of at best an hour and most would have a delay of 3 hours charging.
