My only complaint is that they didn't made that grill bigger.

Designer: How big do you want the grill to be Boss? Boss: Yes Designer: Ok, Thanos it is.

All it needs is the large steam exhaust stack on top to house the antennae and sensors. Maybe a large central fog light and a steam whistle to warn people in its path.

[@adityasanthanam1945]

What a grille. The car reminds me of the Lexus LM, it is nice. I am fascinated by the Chinese luxury minivans. Also, I would love to see more videos about Hongqi cars such as the retro-styled L series cars such as the L5, L7, or L9 if you can obtain one to review. They have a great classic style and are inspired by the classic Hongqi cars of the Cold War era. It would also be interesting to see more China-only cars from foreign companies, especially sedans such as those from American companies.

[@indopleaser]

i enjoy the big bold ,cohesive line flow in the front design

[@jackwiegmann]

Finally a channel dedicated to the Chinese auto market! I'd really love to see a video about the Roewe 750, a car based off the British Rover 75, and outlived it by over a decade.

[@ydihtty]

I like your videos and watch all of them. I have one point of feedback though, I often find the intro (and sometimes music) to be kinda loud compared to your narration. A smaller dynamic range would be nice and make the videos easier to listen to. Thanks!

[@ydihtty]

Specifically it's the narration while outside which tends to be a bit quiet. The voiceover is louder and more in line with the music.

[@Wheelsboy]

Thank you for watching our videos, and thank you for your feedback! We hear you, and we agree that audio has been a lingering issue for us. We have just started using some new software, so we're really hoping that will improve the viewing experience in the future!

[@deltajohnny]

@@Wheelsboy thank you very much, and I was going to suggest the same. I have some hearing issues and I'd love a volume more "uniform". Thank you very much for your great videos! 👏👏👏

[@zzoinks]

Interesting how China has so many relatively new car companies that seem pretty advanced from what I can see

[@Fldllse]

Compared to German, American, and JP car companies yeah they are new, but most of these companies in China had been building cars for 30+ years, if not 60 - 70 years, so not that new I'd say.

[@fgeiger41]

It's because they license technology and refuse it. They don't even make their own microchips. Sometimes, it's outright theft of intellectual property. Most of the companies are owned by the CCP even though they give the appearance of bring private. Definitely not what they appear to be.

[@Fldllse]

@@fgeiger41 what you said was not true at all. China takes up at least 40% of the chip manufacturing because most of the chips are still sub 28nm which China is capable of. Starting from last year China can make 7nm chips but with low yield, and they can already make 14nm chips easily using DUV lithogrphy. Also by number China's private company is by far the dominated force in technology sectors, in contrast of what you were led to believe by the lying media. You can reply and spread as much false info as you want, but in the end only time will tell how disgusting those media are spreading all the false info over the years to fit their hidden agenda.

[@fgeiger41]

@Coanzu is 100% true and there are people that live in China that have attested to it. Sorry. You can also look at the story about general motors giving them technology to replicate. As a matter of fact any story about manufacturers that have set up shop in China.

[@Fldllse]

@@fgeiger41 "people in China have attested it" lol what a cheap line, as cheap as ppl in USA have attested that the earth is flat XD. actually it doesn't even compare because these "people in China" is made up, or you can provide some name, occupation, when they did that etc. Also you don't seem to understand much about the auto industry at all. General Motors doesn't need to "give" any technology at all, because in car building there isn't any barrier of capability to apply the technology at all, but the IP barrier, meaning many countries in the world is capable of building any parts of a good car, but most of those are registered by some old legacy auto makers in the past so they can't sell those parts in countries even if they spend the money and time to build it, nor make it a profitable business, so most small countries just charge taxes or invite legacy auto makers to build factories locally to support the local economy. This is why now China dominates at EVs because the IP barrier hasn't been built yet and they are the ones that's building a good portion of it now.

[@AutomaticVII]

I hope to see more of this kind of car exported. Here in Southeast Asia, the market is dominated by the Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, Kia Carnival and occasional Nissan Elgrand. The prices have become rediculous, with jumps of 20-35% in a generation. Even with the import tax, if those cars made it out of China, they'd clean house.

[@lasskinn474]

the import tax is what makes them so expensive that bumps them up. it'd be an expensive chinese car., h2 is a bit like that too though and cheaper. but it all depends on which se-asia country you're in, if you can buy a hiace/commuter for private use etc... anyway just get a mux, fortuner or something.

[@yangerek78]

Please dont make Southeast Asian roads more blanda that is

[@agusaffandi2347]

In Indonesia 48.000 USD car like this one will be sold for around 1 Billion Rupiah about the same price of Toyota Alphard.

[@ETr4d3]

a friend removed the rear seats and moved the second row further back, leg room is insane, its like siting in a limousine. Only downside, his 5m+ car is now a 4 seater

[@tonylu291]

M8换代挺成功，宜家宜商，加上混动省油，这价格国内不到 ALPHARD一半，再看看埃尔法那质感 用料 安全性，哪里值那个价。但是出口到国外价格可能就没那么香了。

That's a menacing grille. The looks grow on you..

[@TheFanUniverse]

The design definitely splits opinions, but I think it's fairly well executed. It looks like a mini Lexus LM in a good way, nothing looks tacky & every side of the car compliments each other. I'd take this over Toyota's new Voxy any day design wise.

I love the interiors of those MPVs. Definetly not as cool as a large sedan from the outside but definetly looks more comfortable on the inside. I imagine what a Maybach MPV would be like. Also, keep doing the offbeat chinese only stuff. Very cool. Even better if it's now an electric SUV that soon will be sold globally.

[@agusaffandi2347]

[@1andtheOnly]

@@Wheelsboy guys...stop being jealous and accept the fact that this very very good design. The grill has to be attractive, since all vans are bread box shapes. The rest of the vehicle has too many clean lines and is as bread boxy boring as it can get. There should be a contrast. Learn to accept facts..the Chinese automobile and engineering scene is super-hot as a result of decades of hard work.
