    what you need to know is in china, all imported cars are slapped with a variety of taxes. so the $100k chinese made car in this video is probably competing with a $70k car in japan/germany/america that sells for 100k+ in china. so all things considered, these cars are very competitive. sure the taxes are a case of economic protectionism. but every country does that, america and its infamous "buy america act" for example.

    Well as a car designer working in China, I have to say the the copywrite rules are the same here and you can't just rip off from others without consequences. We all know that JLR sued Landwind for the design of the Evoque and won. As for the cars on the list, only the Hongqi E-HS9 and Audi A8L Horch is available as of now and you can actually see them driving on the streets. The Hongqi L5 and Warrior M50 is not exactly available to the general public yet, the Qiantu brand did sold some of their cars but they already went bankrupt years ago, and the rest are either still prototypes or concept cars.

    Love your truck man. By the way, I am absolutely serious because it's perfect for people like myself who have a disability. It's much lower to the ground allowing a disabled person to get in and out since some of us have problems stepping up and pulling ourselves in. I wish there were more vehicles like this here for us who don't go very far or travel much besides going to the store and doing things around the house. Having the dump bed would be great for us who have a fireplace and have to get firewood.
    It's a really cool truck. Thank you for showing it and letting us see other vehicles that are out there.

    The reason that ArcFox GT is more powerful but slower off the line than a Tesla Model S Plaid is likely due to its lack or near-lack of traction control. When you’re trying to put that much power down through anything other than slick drag radials, you’re at the absolute limit of grip. If you took the traction control out of a Plaid, it could spin all four tires up to about 80 miles per hour when floored off the line, which is probably what’s happening with the ArcFox’s less aggressive driver assistance setup.

    • @tren133
      @tren133 Год назад +4

      Jeremiah only did the briefest of research on these cars, but the Yangwang pair do pack some pretty unique tech. The U9's DiSus suspension, for instance, allows for the car to drive at highway speeds completely level while missing one front wheel. It is also strong enough to allow the car to jump vertically (all four wheels) off the ground. The U8 can do a "tank turn" while standing still because all 4 wheels have their own motors. The U8 also has a snorkel because it is water proof and is designed to actually float in water despite its weight. So in an emergency if you tried to ford water which is too deep, the U8 will float in the water, and can turn the wheels at optimal speeds to let you drive yourself out of the water back onto land. And the snorkel itself is for a small gas engine carried onboard the car, which can be used as a range extender if the main battery runs out of juice.
