@@MonsieurGuy build quality overall is very good. the gaps on exterior are fantastic. there is no problem with cheap plastics or other things hater pointed out in videos before. i am a car guy and extremely picky when it comes to this stuff. i let a shop install TPU foil all over the outside to protect the very clean paintjob. interior is excellent, the nappa leather and stitching is high quality and notning is rattleling. the sound system is just epic! first car in my life i felt like i dont need add speaker/sub or amplifier myself which i always did on all my cars before. proper dolby atmos. display is super resonsive and fast. you can feel the nvidia chip inside the car. company leader i know bought the same car with 20" wheels and the michelin pilot sports which i have driven alot before i got mine. ride quality is great. grip is far beyond anything i had before. range with these super sticky tires is a bit lower which is why i choosen 19" wheels and michelin e-primacy on mine combined with the aero rims. grip is still amazing but i get better range on them, the ride quality is better and more soft while noise on highway is lower too. the 20" still feels quiet but they are a bit harder when you drive on bumpy streets. in the rainy season we get deep potholes here sometimes and thats one of the reasons i choose 19" too. i bend several rims on my BYD which was 22" that time. i swapped to 20" after some years and they dont bend anymore when you accidently hit one of these holes. yeah overall i am happy with 19" rims and tires so far. i can drive 160km/h and have a conversation in a very calm tone because its so silent inside. almost unreal feeling. the active noise canceling does the rest to keep things quiet. i thought this would be much worse before. the adaptive suspension does stiffen up the car when you drive in sport mode. i made my own mode with suspension at the lowest level and most soft, rear spoiler tucked in and the softest throttle response. that gives me great range. i cannot say anough good things about this car.

These will never go for $40k in a free economy. China offers substantial buyer rebates for EVs, which were paid directly to manufacturers for vehicles produced in China, not for imported cars. They are exemped from 10% sales tax, Chinese government subsidizes EV R&D with dedicated government funds. You could easily get a $30k Tesla if US uses tax payer money to do these as well. But of course the average comsumer can only see a MSRP and screams "why can't we have things like this?"

We have Chinese EVs and ICEs on our side of the border, here in Mexico. We've had them for around 5 years now. The main issue we've seen with those is parts availability and reliability in electronics and some steel parts such as control arms or subframe welds coming off. The main deterrent is the lack of parts availability. Minor fender benders will have you with no ride for months. Everything is on backorder from China. Folks will rather order parts from AliExpress than wait for the insurance to fulfill and repair. Very cool and pretty cars. Just not there yet in terms of logistics and quality.

I personally changed the brake pads for literally 100 dollars to much thicker pads and if you want, you can even change the brakes themselves along with the disks for less than 2000 dollars with 6 pistons front and 4 pistons back. I wouldn’t recommend that unless you want to take your car to the track, but just for safety, I recommend changing the brake pads to thicker ones

Compared with BMW 3 Series, Audi A4, Mercedes C Class, Tesla Model 3, Lexus IS, Infiniti Q50, Acura TLX, Kia K5, Genesis G70, Cadillac CT5, Dodge Charger, & Other Midsize Sedan Compared with Xiaomi SU7

Car is insane, might be the new SRT for America, how on earth do you produce such an insanely high quality car for so cheap, and with that amount of horse power you’re asking for trouble 😂

[@pyrophobia133]

economies of scale, an army of STEM people and foreign artists

[@mentallyuntouchable2918]

@@pyrophobia133 it angers me that these cars probably wont hit the states due to lobbying by automakers and the govt, imagine getting model plaid levels of fast for the price of a new accord 😥

[@Clumsykae]

@@mentallyuntouchable2918 dang now I realize they won’t be so cheap

[@orangetube1]

The question should be why are American built cars so darn expensive?

[@Clumsykae]

@ and built so cheap too

[@aritzsantana9577]

Are you going to do a full review?

[@stanley2412]

Wait Miles, are they to sell this car in US in the future?

[@Alfred-li0421]

Not with Trump being president 😂

[@MilesPerHr]

It’s unclear. It would take a lot of convincing for US regulators to approve.

[@kpatt2006]

I want to live in a world where this car is actually sold for $41k. That's reasonable. Enough of these outrageous prices for vehicles.

[@yujirohanma9692]

We are only gonna see these cars in Mexico not the USA 🙁

[@chantow8657]

Remember guys, in the US this is supposed to be an iCar 🎉

[@yanyan_taiwanchina]

Wow it’s so cool!

[@alburaq3290]

This car seems like a great option but something doesn't sit right with me when all the KZbinrs are all praise for this. Zero criticism makes it feel like sponsored content. As good as this car may be it can't be perfect.

[@acde9355]

When climbing from 20% to 80%, it takes a long while for people to realise that they are not yet at the top. There are some issues with this car for sure, but the reviewer, as an American, was evidently shocked by what he saw. However, being far from perfect is not contradicted by being better than most rivals.

[@alburaq3290]

@acde9355 Makes sense. I guess Americans are finally starting to come to terms with the fact that Chinese EVs are world class now and provide great value.

[@mingyuhuang8944]

When they have insanely good products they became national security threats 😂

[@ericgregori]

The Model Y ranked first among BEV models in China with wholesale sales of 298,384 units in January-July 2024, with the BYD Seagull coming in second with 227,2934 units. The Tesla Model Y was the best-selling car in the world in 2023, selling 1.22 million units. Nobody wants just an EV, they want a Tesla.

[@TurnerSusan-pe6vu]

Source??😂😂😂 Sorry you're not up to date... A google search self wont take up your time u can check the numbers out Telsa is not even in the top 5 dude Chinese cars are more popular nowadays 😂😂

[@TC-tx6gt]

My 2023 Kia EV 6 had been recalled 4 times. And I talked with a woman at the dealership, who drives a Kia Telluride, and her car has been recalled 5 times. This car is a much much better choice than all EVs here in the California. Also the Kia EV6 mileage is so disappointing in the winter.

[@Aerodynamicz1]

Almost 500 miles is amazing

[@gangatalishis]

Better than a Tesla, and that’s why they don’t ship them to the US.

[@zkilerex9661]

I like this car i would buy it if i had the money

[@FijiBlueM00gie]

What’s the warranty

[@golfstar2875]

This car will NEVER make its way to the US, due to the government doesn't want it to. People will have no say over it.

[@greaterbayareahero1401]

The speed of this car is insane. There were many crashes because people couldn't handle the sheer power of this monster.

[@ah5878]

Behind the top and bottom of the center screen, both sides of the front passenger the back of the front seats all have USBC plug in for add on instruments and Xiaomi devices can be fully integrated with the car (e.g., physical dials and buttons, mobile devices, etc.).

[@ryanfraley7113]

This makes me think of what might have been if Apple had actually went through on building a car.

[@centcom2842]

You left some key details about the xiaomi touchscreen

[@danielking104]

EV without FSD is just a fancy golf car

[@johnp.weiksnar6861]

Paging "Community Notes" . . . namely, NO, very few typical adjustments on a Tesla go exclusively through the display. A real review would credit the thumb wheels and voice control.

[@robertwang7825]

Imagine this is their first car ever and puts to shame car companies that have been doing it for decades and at such a competitive price. New leaders in auto are coming fast. If I was a legacy automaker , I would not be able to sleep at night cuz these new companies are eating my lunch.

[@Aggie4life77]

If they could nail the price in the US, it would sell well. It does copy the looks of the Taycan with a 720s front lol! It would have be around that 40k-45k range to do well. You can’t bring it here and try to charge 80k! They would sell some, but people will just get a used Taycan, Lucid or Plaid!

[@安5-m2u]

Really hope Chinese cars to get into the US. The car market is insane here

[@MilesPerHr]

It would certainly introduce a little more competition

[@ahnafazmain3747]

Good luck, they will slow it down with software updates.
