I like how he’s adding a little bit of humor to his reviews. It’s entertaining while passing out the valid information
This new Hongqi H5 is a massive upgrade from the original. Its great it now looks like a budget version of the H9
I remember that viral video in china where a hongqi owner was so upset he smashed the windows of his car with a sledgehammer 😂😂 a 2 month old hongqi that broke down 13 times repaired 10 times and yet its still kept breaking down lmao…
@@buggyman286not all Hongqi cars lol 😂😂. Why always watch a video like that? 😂
This thing has presence. Cool design!
It doesn't nearly have the presence of the Hongqi L5 state limo though, especially the last gen version with the proper flag hood ornament. The L5 is just about as baller as any Rolls Royce.
@@tren133 haha well that's to be expected

@@tren133the L5 costs like 600k. Of course it has more presence
Drove this model in UAE 🇦🇪 was impressed about the price! 80K about 21000.- US Dollars
When it's dark and the lights are on, it does look like the car has a nosebleed
this car is nice... interior is fantastic for the price
If the H5 is the spiderman, its EV sibling, the E-QM5, looks straight VENOM.
I am a Chinese and most people in China think the EQM5 is like a piece of shit. It's ugly.
The EQM5 was designed by the former Rolls-Royce designer.
Lol spiderman would rather walk. I remember that viral video in china where a hongqi owner was so upset he smashed the windows of his car with a sledgehammer 😂😂 a 2 month old hongqi that broke down 13 times repaired 10 times and yet its still kept breaking down lmao…
Reminds me of a Lincoln MKZ sedan. I find it rather handsome. Well done, sir!!
I think it looks gorgeous 👍
We now have this car as a replacent of german premium sedans in Russia. Better then nothing.
We at right hand drive countries wish to be accommodated
Chrysler needs this.
I like the videos on this channel even though almost all of them are about electric cars. As an average American (in America, the median personal income is around $40k), I’m not ready for a full EV yet because almost all EVs are priced at over $40k and are therefore a bit pricey. I also occasionally make longer road trips - that's where PHEVs are more practical given the lack of a robust and convenient EV charging network in the US. Since BYD makes a number of PHEVs, it would be great to see future reviews of them. I know BYD cars are banned in the US but if knowledge is power or half the battle, then we should know more about BYD and other Chinese PHEVs so we can compare them to PHEVs from Toyota, Hyundai, Kia, etc. For example, the Prius Prime ($30K - $40K in the US) with a full electric range of around 40 miles would suffice for my daily commutes and the 500 - 600 mile combined range plus the ability to run on gasoline would meet any of my long distance road trip needs.
cant wait till the import rules expire so i can ball on my HOA
The H6 is the best
Only $32 grand 😮. It looks better inside and out than some luxury cars.
I'm impressed by the dynaudio, Asin automatic and interior. Could be a lot better looking. Wondering how much plastic is in that 2 l 4-cylinder
Love a red interior...
Still hopeful we'll see a video on the updated Cadillac CT6!
It's a good looking car
We would to see these cars in UK
For the price of an astra
I am impressed how they cant match paint shade on body panels. All of that "luxury" is realy just quality control issues.
looks good but idk man,
seen few videos in China about Honqi car problems
fragile parts, sudden combust, etc
Unless hongqi have different quality for export (??)
They have a room for an improvement
hi wheelsboy, hoping for your review of the hongqi eqm5. you provide the best english language review for chinese cars on the market. thank you.
Hopefully we will get around to the EQM5 eventually, it’s a strange bird.
@Wheelsboy thank you for the reply! We're looking to buy one soon, but in a short sentence review, how is it for you?
How was road noise or cabin noise ? Compared to Honda Accord may be
I think this sedan looks quite good
The car looks very nice except for having a big interior screen instead of proper buttons on the dashboard and not having a softer ride.
I wonder where everybody watching this video is from? I'm in the US, as a car design enthusiast, I browse through a lot of vehicles that my friends never even heard of lol
It's more of a statement 😊
Evaluation H6
1:28 but you promised! 🥺
looks like a cross between current cadillacs and slightly less current lincolns
Very cool
please review Hongqi HQ9 and E-QM5
I remember that viral video in china where a hongqi owner was so upset he smashed the windows of his car with a sledgehammer 😂😂 a 2 month old hongqi that broke down 13 times repaired 10 times and yet its still kept breaking down lmao…
Have you ever known about Chinese cars?
@@cnmgb-xj2gl Do i need to go to the sun to find out if its hot or not? Whats your point?
@@buggyman286well let’s say that you need lots of money and time for hongqi😂,but damn their golden sunflower models does make me want to go bankrupt tho especially the L5 and H9+ , just think of it as land rover I guess
@@cocoaiscool2709 absolutely makes no sense, i'd rather take my money to jap brands. less headache and less hassle. And i'd be embarrassed driving around in a Land rover ripoff, it just screams "poser" 😂
@@buggyman286to each of their own, land rover break down too, I just like how hongqi looks even if it looks a little like a rolls
Not a bad looking ride. While in no way reminiscent of anything Lincoln has ever put out, I don't know why but this design makes me think of Lincoln/Ford in the US. Should Hongqi ever penetrate the US market, from a marketing perspective, they should completely avoid the "Red Flag" association as it holds a different significance here,as you undoubtedly know (A red flag is a sign of trouble - "I wouldn't have gotten into this situation if I had paid attention to all of the red flags (hints that something was off). Having lived 20 years in South East Asia, it is a pleasure to see these Chinese brands reach such impressive automotive heights in what has been a relatively short period of time. A good idea for a video, given your focus on the Chinese market, would be to address the safety standards that these manufacturers are adhering to. Does China have governing bodies like the NHTSA in the US and Euro enCAP? Safety and quality (beyond the surface of material feel etc) are big concerns for buyers in the west. Maybe you could put some of those concerns to rest. Just a thought. Thank you for the content.
most new chinese new cars (2021 onwards) are NCAP 5 star rating, you can check european or australian websites that review chinese cars sold in those continents.
@@wangyaohan8824 I have no doubt that they conform. As you say, they couldn't sell in these countries if they didn't. As mentioned, I am very happy that China has jumped into the car market with such force. It is a different design perspective. I just know that many buyers will still think safety and reliability (which is difficult to quantify given how young many of these companies products are). Most buyers won't necessarily go to the NCAP website to check, so it might be wise for Chinese mfgs to do more to address these matters in their marketing, to dispel these, albeit, false negative perceptions and also helpful if reviewers address them when featuring these vehicles. =)
It is a decent looking car with an impressive interior. But, since it is a chinese car, what do we know about the quality?
You forgot the steering wheel red flag motif.
You’re right! A major oversight on my part!
🙏
Cries with my two tone Rolex on my wrist 😅
Too much red flags means trouble
Is this 2024 models? In my country 2023 model look different
I have questions for Hongqi Owner models 2020 and latest. Is it reliable? For Gently use
Why can't the cars be exported to right hand drive markets? I live in Ireland, like this car but not sold here
Around 5'25" Ethan says the centre screen is 12,6 inches. Seems odd and incorrect looking at the thing
it's vertical, that's why it looks small(ish)
It’s correct, but the way it fits in the dash makes it look much bigger.
Look good
thanks now I have red flags PTSD
I'm a baller on a budget
Wow!! This car is full of red flags
it all makes sense now when my chinese friend told me that this car was full or red flags
The problem with this is you that don't buy a cut-down, budget version of a Rolls-Royce. If you want to own your own boss-mobile you need to go for the H9 and bigger.
H6 review when?
Waiting for Baojun cloud, I am curious about the car
Hello wheelsboy I'm looking to buy a Honqi car but I don't know which, please could you review the hs7,ls7 and the h6 i have my eyes on this three
If you live in the US you can’t purchase Chinese vehicles?
Ello
Is this new one still based on the Mazda6/Atenza platform?
Wikipedia says yes
May explain why it's a bit sportier than the larger Hongqi models
Do you know anything about chassis technology?
I hope it comes to Jamaica 🇯🇲
how much costs it?
说的好！国产我选吉利和奇瑞😂
I saw that car. I think it is a large sedan, not a mid-size
Compact Mini Rolls Royce: Collora E210 Sedan Hybrid, Geely Emgrand, No need BMW/Rolls Royce: Say Goodbye
nice
I thought the H6 was the sporty one in the line-up ? End it isn't really much more expensive to boot!
I haven’t driven the H6 yet, but it’s marketed as the sportiest Hongqi, and it’s styling certainly promises a sporty driving experience.
Is the Ousado and the H5 the same car ?
Oh yeah I’m definitely buying one of these Chinese vehicles real soon. Good thing we don’t do right hand drive here
I can see lincoln and cadillac 😅
32K$ USD and this much WOW LOL. Nice
看到一汽车就来气，不争气的企业，现在追晚了
Looks like a Mercedes interior
Yeap, practical and economical, some minor details and fun gimmicks.
But to be honest, still a boring 4-door saloon in a market that is dominated by every brand, the saloons and SUV's.
Than again, wen it was for sale in the EU for $32k, it would be a sales hit. Bought by the masses of totally boring people that belong in a 4 door saloon..
Its a clearly a mazda 6 made in china.
lol... I bet he's purposely mispronouncing the brand name
Interesting car but someone should explain to this company that arround the world TD badge means Turbo Diesel and there is plenty of other letters to combine.
🚩🚩🚩
(red flag)³ aka the most communist car in the world
Similarly, Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and Nazis had their reign of evil, yet I have no problem with Toyota, Mitsubishi, Honda, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and the forerunners of Audi.
Maybe do some research on the CCP and how they are destroying the US....everything from constant spying to buying farm land and installing ccp police stations across the United States.
@@67FORDTRUCKF250this i really don't understand, how can they install police station in your country if your country don't allow it? Your government have no say?
@@pinggopo unfortunately they know about it but do nothing....ask our dear resident biden....
Why was it so da*n hard to spell it hongchi
Wonder if the red flag is the symbol of freedom 😅. We have the H9 or whatever its called in Europe . The big SUV. I just dont like what the name referer too.
That's E-HS9, the full size EV SUV. Whether you like it or not, Hongqi is a brand deeply rooted in the history of socialist China. Just like modern China and its people, this Hongqi is more open-minded, and more confident with the country and system it borne with.
FAW=First Automobile Works is China's first indigenous auto maker, a major SoE and local partner of VW and Toyota, that also makes state car for Chinese leaders. Xi rides Hongqi N701 these days which actually has an resemblance to the current gen H9 and H5 (or vice versa). Whether you like it or not, they're quite straightforward presenting the Hongqi name to the western world...
red flag is china's flag color.
Little knock off Rolls-Royce? What are you smoking dude? gimme some 😂 Hongqi looks nothing like Rolls-Royce. Not even a little bit 😋....Not even close to the general shape of the boxy looking Rolls-Royce... Hongqi has a very iconic front grill that looks like long fish teeth.
weed are hard to get in China, this dude must put effort into finding them.
not this one their other models are especially older models
Rolls-Royce designer Giles Taylor is the head designer @ Hongqi
So? Hongqi still dose not look like Rolls-Royce. @@tommyj6289
I dunno
This car throws up a few too many red flags for me
Another ice
U mean landrover, toyota, Misshubishi, ford, gm? 😸
I'm sorry but I have no interest in ice vehicles
