Should be another cracker. Bit of a while off yet though.

Haha. It's really not that bad. There's a lot of influence in there, but it's quite a stunning thing in the metal.

Who did you rip that comment off? I've read that a million times before.

@@InsideChinaAuto you are living under a rock if you haven't seen the videos and seeing the reports

@mariolevasseur731 I've seen plenty of reports of EVs catching fire, but I've also seen 3 million of them sold per year in China. The amounts are miniscule, and if you're so well up on reports, you'd know petrol cars are 19 times more likely to catch fire than electric cars, or has your tin foil hat slipped over your eyes?

Let's see.

It'll be very interesting to compare. Got an update on the Huawei system video coming soon. Wait until you see that.

You should see the other cars on the channel.

Porsche will likely be more concerned with their falling sales in China. Side by side they're not similar at all but they've borrowed lots of details that are not the same but similar, enough to give an overall 'feel' that it's quite Porsche-like.

@@InsideChinaAuto well sales aside I seen your video and if it didn't say Xiaomi, I instantly thought that's a Porsche, not only that they even pinched the colour as to emphasis the Porsche theme.

@@acelectricalsecurity Their chief engineer is huge Porsche fan publicly on social media. What can I say.

@@InsideChinaAuto Are they planning on selling this in Europe or any western country where Porsche could make a legal case against them. Because there's no chance in China, others have tried in the past.

@acelectricalsecurity Land Rover actually won against Land Wind in China, and I believe another brand that copied the X5 also were ordered to buy back and destroy all their cars, though you very rarely might see one still. I don't think Porsche could win against this, it's simply not enough of a copy. It's not a direct like for like. Lights aren't the same front or rear, interior isn't the same, it's just details here and there and I don't think you can build a case on that.

Coming from a guy called Dylan? Haha. OK

@@InsideChinaAuto what?

@@dylanbigg8288 Dylan can't take it in return.

@@InsideChinaAuto no, if telling me my name is somehow supposed to be taken as an insult, I just literally don't get it, that's all.

@@dylanbigg8288 I highly doubt you would.

Highly doubt it.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Not quite as quick as that but hints of it in the headlights.

Pfft, wouldn't bother with a BMW if you're in China mate, almost everything else is better value for money and a better car overall. These 009s are badass though and the updates have made it an even better car than the one I reviewed here.

​@@InsideChinaAuto Does the latest 009 finally have a HUD and massage function for the front seat? The only downside seems to be that there is no English UI in the Chinese domestic market versions sadly I'm also waiting for the Fangchenbao 8.

@energiam880 35.96-inch HUD on the new model, and heating, ventilation and massage functions as standard on the front two rows.

Glad you've been enjoying the channel. The 001 is indeed a wonderful car, even more since the update as this video is a bit old now. No idea on Thai sales yet but I'd suggest next year might be a potential. They're taking the X and 009 there soon and I think demand for the 001 will be even higher than those so they'll have to think about it soon.

Getting there slowly. Should be a hit.

Kind of like that idea except the windscreen bit.

Come for the propaganda, stay for the salt in the comments.

Exactly.

Only if the batteries are leaking and guess what, they're not.

Love the Twingo, but swap it for the original. That said, no range anxiety, but reliability anxiety in spades.

It's the best part.

Wouldn't that be nice!

Lovely car. Can't take your eyes off it.

I'll have to take a second look at that.

Actually the windows can be controlled by switches on the door, and the regen can be selected to either stop or crawl, but the Chinese government are stopping the 'come to a stop' function on future cars for some reason.

@@InsideChinaAuto I need to watch the video again about those windows. hahaha Yes, I understood that about the chinese government.

Will see if NIO will send me one. Got something even better right now though.

@@InsideChinaAuto NIO??

@@ssjj005 Nope, an AVATR 12.

@@InsideChinaAuto uhhhh Most of us want to know about NIO.....

@@ssjj005 Then you need to put down your shares and get some taste in design. NIO will return soon, as well as a visit of their factory already recorded.

By law you have to in China, that's the only reason you need to. They haven't opened to hands-free yet

@@InsideChinaAuto I understand

Better off with a Zeekr if reliability is what you're after.

Quiet at what?

Didn't we all.

Really loved this little thing. They need to start selling it in Europe pronto.

Well firstly, where I come from, it's Porsche, not Porsch-eh, just like it's Nike, not Nike-ee. Second, as I've pointed out in other comments, there are nods to the Taycan and general Porsche design language everywhere, in the shape of the window, the side sculpting, the rear arch, the same style door handles, the ice cube headlights, the overall shape of the bonnet, and with the steering wheel boost button. Also, the headlamps aren't particularly Mclaren-shaped, Mclarens have almost triangular headlamps, not almonds. Sorry was that olmonds or ahlmands?

​@@InsideChinaAuto Most people in English speaking countries shorten it to porsh, without "eh" in the end, not because its right, but sounds better to them and the main reason is they dont care about pronouncing, kind of like how alumiNUM was born. Porsche is a German surname and it should be pronounced as close as possible to their way of doing it because this way the line of confusion is maintained at the distance. I know this is not going to happen, but its because of the collective levels of understanding and public figures that help embedding the twisted version into the culture. On the subject of design i told you to not be sloppy and point out the exact model of the Porsche that you see the resemblance of in the design, i got it from the video all the things you are typing. The inside of the headlights on the SU7 do remind me of the Taycan, but the overal design clearly came from the Mclaren 750/765 or something. I would say the whole nose of the car resembles Mclaren, which was my first thought when i saw the car. It appears to you more triangular because its a more agressive design for a more agressive and premium car, the subtle lines of the SU7 headlights would destroy the look of any modern supercar. If you deny they took the inspiration from Mclaren, we have nothing further to discuss, you are either a part of some crazy conspiracy, or more likely just $#%t at your job, which makes much more sense for so many reasons.

@paradoxofgodexisting Haha, you're welcome to be aggressive mate if you think that's necessary. One of us has driven the car and and seen it in person, the other is judging from pictures. Looks are always subjective. Someone said it looked like a Tesla. What can I say? As for the naming thing, I'm sure there's a tonne of things you say 'wrong' from other languages but I put mine in videos. It's funny that you should bring up aluminum since most Americans say Porsche and Nike the way you'd like it to be said. All I'll say is, when I lived in Germany, they all called me Reinfort as opposed to what my actual name was, and half of them spelled my name with a C instead of a K, so I'm not that inclined to give two sh!ts about pronouncing Porsche exactly as they'd want. It's not revenge, it's just what it is. When you start calling VW 'fau-vay' I might consider doing as you request.

Which part in particular? Or were you referring to your lazy comment?

@@InsideChinaAuto I was talking about your body shape

@Aria432 Oh well that's something we can agree on. It's rumoured if you pull the lid off there's a green dude called Oscar the Grouch inside.

Thanks Toaster

You're very welcome. Shanghai is harder, that's 3.5.

Don't think I've ever earned that mantra before.

Left sadly. There are rumours a righty might make an appearance in other countries maybe badged as something else, so stay tuned.

Me too.

It definitely feels cheaper than a Zeekr, that's true. I think they had planned at a higher price and when their finance guys told them it wouldn't sell for that price, they pulled a few niceties out. That's my hypothesis. As for the ET5, the one I tested was very poorly made with flexible headliner, a centre armrest that came off if you wiggled it a little, and some of the plastics just felt a bit poor.

Haha. Lucky Pole, or Belarussian. This is a cracking car, one of the best out there. Great to have you find us. There's a tonne more interesting cars to see.

Agreed. Big fan of Zeekr, never had the chance to drive the BYD Seal yet.

Still came for a look though didn't you, Gerry?

@@InsideChinaAuto like the old saying goes, know your enemy

@Sparkyoleano You've got plenty more enemies in the world before the Chinese but feel free to fall for everything the media tells you hook, line, and sinker.

@@InsideChinaAuto I’m assuming you think I’m American

@Sparkyoleano I assume nothing. Media all over spreads anti-China crap these days because they can't accept a nation they just to bully getting so strong.

You're welcome. Enjoyed this one.

What's terrible about it?

Haha. Someone sure loves their cats.

Haha, oh God, we've got a Tesla stan. Seriously, if you think this looks like a Model 3 you need your eyes checking. A Model 3 could only dream of looking this good, and it would be the greatest dream it ever had.

@@jigglypuff4227 ich wohne in china und hab den SU7 max bestellt. hätte nich gedacht euch hier zu sehen 😊

They really did. For a first car this is stunning.

It really is.

Chief engineer is a very public Porsche fan. Suspect it played a part.

Some will have that reaction. It's a bit of a marmite car.
