@InsideChinaAuto 5 ай бұрын
@@Harrythehun Not sure what they mean by mechanically better cars for the price. XPeng says there are two other competitors, one is definitely the BAIC EU500, and that has lower specs than this and no self-driving. I used the self-driving on the highway and it was great in the time we used it, no issues at all. I wouldn't buy one myself I don't think, I don't really like the interior, but I'd take it over an EU500.

It is definitely one of the best bargains for under $18K. Many will now think about switching to EVs because they are cheaper to buy than ICE & much cheaper to run. Over the next 3 to 4 years, many will be buying up 2nd hand models for $10k or less. This also highlights that legacy manufacturers have been making 12- 20% profit margins on their cars. How did Volkswagon find £100 billion to invest in Xpeng!? I expect China will be making their own processors very soon. The competition is heating up now. Teslas reign may be coming to end in China, primarily because the Chinese can build better. The only barrier for China & potential customers across the world is Western Govt cartels, eg, protectionism, who subjugate the concept of fair trade & free markets. Trade wars with China don't work.
@InsideChinaAuto

Can only agree with all you said. Even without subsidies, which are a way to stimulate an industry and not exclusively used by China, you could charge twice as much for these cars and in many cases they'd still be cheaper and far better equipped than their European counterparts. Looking at the Li Auto L6 in China compared to a Mercedes-Benz GLE as an example. The comparison isn't even close and the Li is about 40% of the price.

@@InsideChinaAutoYou had time to faff around with gimmicks on the screen though? You never found a corner to put the boot and see if it torque steers? I know that most people care more about gadgets than the base engineering and what makes a car actually a car… It’s depressing. Anyway, I like the simple approach to engineering int be suspension if it’s tuned well - a torsion beam handles well in a Renault Megane sport for example!! If they made this in RHD and brought it to Australia I’d be keen - it’s a proper lift back, I quite like the styling and if they got the suspension tuning right it could be a good drive.

@froggy0162 Sadly no, there were no such corners available during the daylight hours. We went from the hotel to the static filming location directly, following a camera car to get some driving footage, just open dual carriageways there, then it was pretty much all highway and urban roads to the parking, by which point it was dark, so no. I could fiddle with the gimmicks on the boring road while the car pretty much drove itself, hence I covered what was available.

It seems a lot of big factories hire out their facilities to smaller companies without their own staff. Didn't some European supercar company was in the talks in hiring out some factory space? From one of them very small nations without much of their own industry... But back to the car... Man, I wished there are more saloons in NZ, but people here are obsessed with ugly and stupid SUVs and pickup trucks.
