>>108685571...why dont they show it in real-time the fucking car is right there.
Amazing! This is totally going to revolutionize the way I drive through a desert to work everyday!
>>108685571ah yes thank god i can now drive properly through the sandy european cities surounded by sand
WAOHCHINA SO INNOVATIVECHINA NUMBA WON
>>108685571One can't help but question>reliability>Serviceability >Service parts availability>Qualified repair service >Service cost
>>108685571wtf i want to buy xm now !
Allmyfriendsknow the low rider
>>108685571>>108685582we are going to see less toyota on those videos
>>108685687HITTIN' SWITCHES ON BITCHES
>>108685571buy an ad chinaman
>>108685613that's how I do oil changes with no jack
>>108685571but what about quality?
>>108685582spoken like a true pavement queen. sad!
>>108685655It's a Chinese product. It's made to be consumed and then bought new again, not maintained.
>>108685607Citroens hydraulic shit was all interlinked. Was comfy af when it worked, but when it failed - which it did - fucking everything went, braking ability, the lot. Fantastic piece of engineering otherwise tho.
>>108685571half of the comments here are just the exact same lame comments people replied with on twitter where they just blurt out the first thing that pops into their brain thinkin it's original or worth the space on the internet https://xcancel.com/yabbanx/status/2047746177991401485
>>108685571>It's really over for western car makersNo.Western cars use tires with patterns. Use slicks and you should not be surprised to struggle with traction.
It's a good thing to see competition like that because it forces everything else to try to better themselves, but I do wonder about the overall maintenance of the car precisely because of engineering like that. Also, >>108685881. >>108685902I mean yeah. This place is full of low effort posting. What else?
Wait so it balances itself on 3 wheels? Somebody is gonna smash their rotors at best, their ribcage at worse.
not saying this to shit on china but using a carjack is not difficult
>>108685571That's nice and all but why does it look so fucking hideous? Also these >>108685655
>>108685583>doesn't believe in climert change
>>108685856hard to do worse than the US auto industry
>>108685902You realise the wumao is everywhere, right? Right? Even in the Financial Times comments fields they are super active. Mention China and they arrive in droves.

>>108685607beat me to it>>108685881this is true but quite overblown. In the DS if the hydraulics were to break, brakes were the last thing to be lost (after steering and suspension) and you had a big STOP light urging you to stop asap, this was even stated in the manual
>>108685571>car doesn't even turn on>play ai video in the background of it doing everything they say it can and people just have to believe it or their social credit score goes down
>>108685613>>108685620love the Xantia, I have good memories with my father's one and he told me he loved its handling and engine, he appreciates it more compared to the C5
>>108690049they had to show the video instead of a live demo because it's so powerful that the shockwaves might kill the audience members
>>108685607old badnew good
>>108690065I hope the chink cars that can shoot mobile IEDs get past production at some point, the carnage would be hilarious
>>108685613What is this Iranian doing? I don't get it
but at what price..
>>108690407Demonstrating something you can't do with other cars
>>108690626try that in america you wouldn't be able to lift the neet. it only works in china because they can't afford food.
>>108690670>when your population isn't 80% overweight, everybody is starvingI remember talking about being 160 pounds and my friends online (Americans) called me malnourished, because they were 250 pounds at my height.How much fucking nourishment do you even have to be to be over 200 pounds at 5'10"?
>>108690789to be fair, 80% of america's population = 20% of china's population
>>108690789They think that because the last time they were 160lbs they were in middle school. They don't know what 160lbs looks like.t. 160lbs American also at 5'10"
>>108690789It's not hard.Food is so cheap in the US (relative to income) that it's actually difficult for most people to determine how much they should eat.Large packaging also contributes.
>china w-ACK!
>>108690957ooooh takahashi I have brirriant idea! we will put sideview mirror inside car!
>>108690957
Fucking chink retards with their fucking chink propaganda.
>>108690957>>108690966what do i need most in my car? that's right, a 27" monitor that controls everything and I can't even reach the edges offuck buttons lol
>>108690987holy shit heated seats? damn america is cooked
>>108690982>wahhhhh>anything that attempts to bypass my mental firewalls built to keep me blind to how stagnant certain industries are in america due to profiteering corporate lobbyists and corrupt politicians is propaganda!
>>108690987>the monitor is blocking half the directionality of the passenger air vent
>buy 2026 cx5>everything is on the screen now>screen doesn't worknow what?
>>108685571none of this tech is new, it's 100 years old
>>108690974>display on steering wheelAh yes I love not being able to read shit when the wheel is turned
>>108685571
>>108690974>700+ miles range w/gasthe way it's said here is confusing, but what they mean is a fully charged battery PLUS a fully charged gas tank (which charges the battery) will get you that 700+ mile range>two driver displaysuse case?>touch screen on the wheelfuck you>HUD on windshieldmazda has had this for like 10 years>hand controlled media centerlol>sentry modenigga stole my car
>>108685571>gets bogged in the first place because it has 3000kg of battery
>>108685571China doesn't give two shits about western automakers, their main rival when it comes to cars is to the east. You would know them as Toyota and Honda.
>Amerifats stop buying EV>huge RD cuts for GM/Ford/Stellantis >try to get the world to buy EV with $5-$6/gallon gas prices>ICE cars can only sell in the US Amerifats can't stop shooting themselves in the foot.
>>/o/
>>108690626wow its me>>108690789i like fat people because i can tell them they are 2-3 times my weightt. 5'3 95lb
>>108690626What's with the toenails?
>>108691315>5'3 95lbGod your dick must be so tiny and cute.
>>108691365horny anonmaybe
>>108691276>China doesn't give two shits about western automakersDidn't VW jump to the top of the sales charts after the EV subsidy was rescinded a couple months ago? (Yes, I'm aware it's technically a 51% Chinese owned subsidiary.)
I will never buy a car with a screen on the dashboard.
>>108685571I'm pretty sure there was a French car that did that second wheelie thing in the 60s/70s.
>>108691210Pretty sure the Corvette had a windshield HUD in the 80s. Land Rover did a really cool version where they showed a look "through" the hood so you could offroad better.
>>108692922How else am I supposed to watch porn and drive at the same time?
>>108693074>yeah um actually china has batteries that last ten billion miles and charge in 0.003 seconds trust me bro our civilization clearly has shown the capacity to make such things
>>108691004It's so fucking retarded that more cars do this. I rented an Opel Mokka on holidat and the display looked like it was just bolted on right over half the passenger side vent.
>Karen mobile
>>108693035>video call when you're supposed to have your eyes on the road
none of this matters to me because im too scared to drive nigger, i catch the bus an hour to work and an hour back
>>108685902pocket watch, samosa, november the 18thhappy now?
>>108693521>Hour to and backDo you hate yourself?
>>108690670the government has a bunch of restrictions in place to ensure food remains cheap. difference is that unlike 'murrica where poorfags get stamps to buy soda and lollies, chinese "poor food" is fried rice, noodles, and dumplings, you know, decent food still
>>108693521Play Beam.ng to get your vehicle physics skills up
>>108693479By now it is mandatory to drive one because everyone else will crush you if you drive something smaller in an accident
>>108685571Modern cars are so fugly. Everything is ugly now, why is that?
China has battery swap stations for taxis even in bumfuck nowhere (near the North Korean border)
>>108693035Imagine you having a good time with your girl in your car, suddenly mum's call shows up in the screen asking where her little baby is
>>108694413>That's really fast>Yes, that's a battery change, dumb gweilo.
>ITT: intense mutt cope
>>108692880Maybe above Honda and this is only because they have such a dominant share in the EU where the Chinese is chipping away in. Right now they're losing marketshare to BYD and Tesla because their EVs are garbage and gas prices are at an all time high thanks to our retarded president.
>>108685571Hydraulic and pneumatic suspensions aren't new, they're just high maintenance. Anyway, how SO OVER BROS ITS FUCKING OVER EVERYONE JUST GIVE UP AND BURN ALL YOUR CARS AND KYS YOURSELVES ITS O V E R OVER OOOOOOOOVER it is sorta depends on how much the car costs. ...I'm not going to say if it's a luxury car or not though. They're all trying to be luxury cars now since so few people can afford to buy anything that big new anymore, especially if it's electric.
>>108694888>ourStay mad, Xiao. You can't even win your home market.
>>108693035I hate modern cars so much, I don't need a million different huge displays and alarms bonging at me for every single little thing, give me simplicity
I'm so sick of touching glass.People want their planes looking like the cockpit of a 747 not a mobile device.
>>108695598>Chinese own company is the best selling company in China >take that chudI don't think this is the own you're looking for...
>>108685571Except what happens when you need to change a tire, do you need to call a Certified Vendor and then he arrives with his computer setup, and this will cost you $200 per hour.
>>108696099>esl responseI already said it was a Chinese (51%) company. The badge says VW. You still lose.
Some car makes are better at the whole "muh screens" thing, they have maybe ONE screen (cause dumb NPCs absolutely need one in 2026 and won't buy a car with zero screens) but everything can still be controlled by physical buttons, like God intended
>>108685577>...why dont they show it in real-time the fucking car is right there.Please understand that would mean they'd need to make the technology actually work outside 3d renders.
>>108690626The man being abducted shows all the signs of being autistic or mentally challenged.>Hands curled and arm pressed against abdomen>unfocused/avoidant gaze>shutting down in an unfamiliar environment>poor grooming habits evidenced via toenail growth
I'm seeing a lot of chinese cars here lately, and part of it is because most people don't really care for longitivtiy, the vast majority of 'car sales' here are 2-3 year leases. And I can see why people go for them, something that looks/feels like a far more premium car than they'd normally get. I am curious to see how they hold up because they are affordabe now, so they should be pretty cheap when they start selling post-lease cars.
>>108697524There are two screens and a HUD in the image.This is the minimum you can get with just a digital display for speed etc and a clamp to mount your own devices.
>>108699882Autism isn't an excuse to be weak or abnormal.My parents beat being normal into me and I'm the better for it.
>>108700012>My parents beat being normal into me and I'm the better for it.Consider yourself fortunate that a few beatings was all you needed.There is no such hope for webm related.
>>108690230>China ObserverFalungong schizo garbage, it doesn't matter anymore whats real, so much of their content is fake shit that you can't trust anything at all from them.Falungong fuckers are absolutely fucking insane. Chinks didn't fuck their asses up hard enough.Asia still has those fucking suicide cults and falungong are some of the most deranged today.

>>108693001>60s/70s*1955-2017You amerimutts have no fucking idea, we europoors had it so good, we had no fucking idea how good we had it either kek.
>>108699994>stellantis vomitall built by bangladeshis who like to fuck each other in the ass in a serbian factory toilet (trvthnvke, they recorded this)or is that only true for the C3's even gayer brother, the grande panda?>>108700012>Autism isn't an excuse to be weak or abnormal.yeah it absolutely is if it's anything besides a lightweight form
>>108686823wumao is deceptive because there are real reasons to praise China but shit like self-raising suspension on cars (Haven't busses had this tech since the fucking 60s?) is very clearly made to be social media clickbait. If nothing else their propaganda game is top-notch
>>108702765>shit like self-raising suspension on cars (Haven't busses had this tech since the fucking 60s?)My nigger in christ FAMILY CARS have had this since the 1950s
>>108685571>china is basically potty training fucking cars nowit's very over
>>108691030do not do windshield kick anon
>>108685571great, they somehow made cars even more deadly
>>108685881CELLS
>>108695624i have a manual shitbox and can't conceive of giving it up because it's super reliable and fun to drive
>>108699954really badly, Chinese metallurgy is notoriously awful and poorly regulated. expect less than 3 years post-lease
>>108691210>>108693033my dad's 1994 pontiac bonneville SSE had a fucking HUD
>>108690626Don't they know how to use doorknobs?
>>108685607You have to realize that the issue here isn't that china is inventing new shit it is the fact that they are experimenting with modern novel ways to do things. It doesn't matter that its a new the fact that in the US pretty much every car is designed the same shit gas car barely anything different between them is the problem. It shows that the US car companies are completely fucking dead. I will bet that in the next 5-10yrs unless the US steps up they just won't exist anymore when these chinks somehow get a foot hold in the US? Same shit the Japanese did. US won't have anything.
>>108685571my car btwpiece of shit.
>>108685571Goddamn, modern cars look so UGLY.
>>108693035would be nice to play Need For Speed on the steering wheel display
yes best they could do in citroen bx tv ad was dog
>>108685577>real time demohehehe
>>108699882i do all of this
>we have all the rare earths>we have all the chips>we have all the cheap energyyou made your bed, now lie in it, gweilo
>>108685613Why did he stop reversing
A chinese driver in a chinese car would have kept reversingJust saying
The lack of regulation is insane.>Cars are getting bigger and bigger (Mainly in America but it's spilling over to Europe, too), making car crashes more dangerous>Screens, screens everywhere. All to reduce costs and it's totally fine, they won't distract drives!>Collect an unbelievable amount of data that then gets sold and used against the driverGetting an electric vehicle without an on-board screen and telemetry seems to be absolutely impossible. You'd thing that at the very least the EU would be compelled to act but it seems that they're jealous of the automotive industry...
