Nah not really, it seems like he’s trying too hard to compliment even the ugly parts of the car that are blatantly an afterthought. Coming from somebody who likes to support competition against Tesla I’d say this isn’t the way to go.

[@jesusmao2926]

I live in Shanghai and just bought a P7 in January. It’s been a few months now. Trust me, the car is fantastic. I like it way better than Tesla and Nio. The interior is futuristic and minimalist, luxurious feel. Lots of high tech built into the car. I love the dual screens, right on my eye-line, way better than the vertical screen mostly below the eye-line in a Tesla S. The voice interface is superb. The autonomous driving just as good as Tesla. And the auto parking is so smooth. It included so much bells and whistles without charging an arm and leg in options. For $3000, it throws in the autonomous driving package. I got the 670km version and it actually drives about 500km. All this comes down to ~$46k USD. A great car for the money.

I think that they released a new update to the voice control system. It can recognize a conversation in between passengers and actual executable instructions. So you can command it to do something and talk to your friend and go back to talking to the car without the need of repeating the magic trigger word. And it’s actually very reliable to the point where you basically don’t need to touch the screen for anything. But still wow I am impressed with ur Chinese, I am always more impressed when a foreigner speaks fluent mandarin than a Chinese speaking English, cuz Chinese is so complicated to learn.

[@DiegoWeissel]

not so difficult to speak, because its grammar is even easier than english is, but its writing...............

[@vivienlegeisha3425]

Wow. This update is REALLY impressive. Considering there are regional accent differences in Chinese, and the host is not speaking in Beijinese accent, I was REALLY blown away by the voice comment. And the solutions suggested by the system is really impressive too. You can imagine having a conversation with the AI.
