    I have recently purchased this car from among the cars of the same price in Iran, such as jetour x70 plus or Chery Tiggo 8 Pro, Forthing hybrid because of its more features, build quality and more beautiful design. Thank you for checking and helping me make a final choice.

      I hope it serves you well!
      Let me know in a couple of months, how is it to live with long-term.

    The 2 most important factors when buying any car, new or used, are reliability and service competence. Yes, especially when it comes to new cars.
    I haven't driven a new car in the last 5 years where I didn't feel like it needed at least some repairs under warranty. A friend of mine runs a small feet of vehicles (~25 vehicles) and he has the same experience.
    VW group, Kia, Nissan, Stellantis, it's all the same. They can't fix them even under warranty.
    So in order for me to buy a Chinese car, they wouldn't just have to be "not worse" than the competition, they would have to be better.
    And that's an experiment I'm not rich enough to participate in because I don't believe it's possible.

    The version offered in Iran of BAIC Beijing 7 also has rear seats without facilities such as massagers.

    After driving 3,000 kilometers, I have to say that yes, you are right. At high speeds and on the freeway, the insulation is not good, whereas in traffic and at speeds below 70 kilometers, I experience very noticeable silence inside the cabin.

    For example, if your foot is not on the brake and every time your distance from the car in front decreases, a yellow warning light behind the dash will first inform you to increase the distance. If you increase your speed without paying attention and your foot is not on the brake pedal, a loud siren will first alert you to the collision, and if your foot is not on the brake, the AED will activate!

    I think a lack of AWD in the Beijing 7 is a bit of a letdown.

    I’ll leave a comment now before I forget. This version, if I’m correct, is the X7 Plus.
    It festures THIS downgraded infotainment system, a different section around the shifter and no warm or cold seats in the back. The X7 from 2022 had all those. We weren’t updated on the changes when we ordered the x7 plus. Came as a surprise 6:26

  • @ramtinh110

    But I was very surprised that, contrary to what you said, the ADAS system works very accurately and correctly! I feel that maybe your car's radar sensor was not calibrated properly or you did not work with it properly during the test!

    This looks great, i’ll have to admit. I wouldn’t buy a Chinese car but I bet they will sell quite a few of these.
    Remember where Chinese cars were 10-15 years ago? We used to have something called a “Land Mark” here in town, someone brought it home with them after working in China I guess. The logo looked like the Land Rover logo. It looked like cross between a 1990’s CR-V and a Mitsubishi Pajero or something. It had leaf springs in the rear. I once watched the driver open the tailgate. It flew open on the gas struts, bounced off of the stops, came back down and eventually settled half way down. Great quality.

    I kinda like how they lean into the Chinese origins by naming it “Beijing”. In America we have some Chinese made models from various manufacturers but it’s always hidden.

    Was there any jaggedness in the way the transmission worked on lower speeds & in reverse?
    Also, engine sound?

    • @MarekDrivesENG

      The transmission is jerky, at least when cold.

    Always enjoy Your tests. All that electronic cr@p built into cars these days is mostly expensive marketing fluff. Anyone with a two digit IQ probably does not need 'lane keeping assist'. There won't be any Chinese car in my garage, ever. Let alone one that is called 'Beijing', not even as a free gift.

      Consumption, lack of service support compared to other manufacturers, nvh, short seats and noticeably higher price than in China. Not sure if its customs, taxes or margins or all 3 but some VWs are also cheaper in China, probably other German brands. All in all seems ok.
