Join Alex for an electrifying journey into the world of electric vehicles (EVs). In today's episode, we're diving into a fascinating comparison between China's groundbreaking EV manufacturers, NIO and Avatar11, and America's Tesla, a global leader in electric automotive innovation.
Innovative Powerhouses: NIO, Avatar11, and Tesla
We start our exploration by taking a closer look at NIO and Avatar11, two of China's most ambitious EV players. Known for their cutting-edge technology and innovative designs, how do these brands measure up against Tesla's market-leading models? We'll examine their latest offerings, comparing technology, performance, eco-friendliness, and price points.
The High Cost of Gas
A significant part of our discussion will focus on the financial implications of owning gas-powered cars in the USA. The average American spends a fortune on fuel over the lifetime of their vehicle. We'll break down these costs and compare them with the potential savings from switching to electric vehicles.
Environmental Benefits and Cost Savings
The shift to EVs isn't just about saving money; it's about saving the planet. This episode highlights the positive environmental impact of electric vehicles and discusses the significant cost savings Americans could enjoy with broader access to electric cars like NIO, Avatar11, and Tesla.
Market Dynamics: Tariffs and Trade Restrictions
However, there's a complex challenge. Despite the evident advantages of Chinese EVs, the American market is currently limited to them due to tariffs and trade restrictions. This segment explores how these economic barriers impact consumer choice and the growth of the EV sector in the USA.
A What-If Scenario
What if these market barriers didn't exist? We'll paint a picture of an alternate reality where American consumers have full access to Chinese EVs like NIO and Avatar11. How would this change the landscape of American streets, pocketbooks, and environmental impact?

While America keep debating about politic and non-sense, China keep progressing in Technology and infrastructure .. how can you compete with China? Innovative, Smart, hardworking people.
America trying hard to slowdowns China progress 😢
@@cleavenyan5363 but they (America) can't stop China from progressing.
@@cleavenyan5363 So China can buy American assets and companies at 98% percent off in the next great depression. According to politicians its great.
China isn't as awesome as you think. You should check out some other channels like Serpentza showing the true China instead of relying only on channels that are supported by the Chinese government ;)
@@smallego8068 No more Western Cunts.
The West is haphazardly rolling out EVs without integrating an entire solution. I am impressed with China's implementation.
The corrupted USA government and its boss the rich oil corporations are making it hard for people in USA to switch to EVs.
Thanks Ken
@@Reporterfy You're welcome Alex. 🙂
That is because the US is only a _closet-fascist_ country thus far. China is an _in your face, full blown fascist country_ with central planning.
they have to battle politics, fossil ICE manufacturers and the govts prefer pouring money into wars, death, destructions and genocide.
The battery swapping is what we should be doing here in the USA but the car company's in the US wants to double dip by charging people 15k to 30k when the battery fails. Swapping battery's is the solution for battery failures and for the amount of time it takes to charge an EV. America put all its money behind a guy who smokes weed everyday Elon Musk who only cares about lining his pockets. We need battery swapping in the US and we need Chinese cars as well. How can we say we have a free country when our government bans good products only for the sake of corrupt US companys. Let them compete instead of ripping us off.
what surprised is the young man you interviewed. Almost perfect English. What is the chance you can interview a US youth who speaks fluent Chinese, Japanese, Korean, or even Germany?
Can't agree more 😊😊
Excellent 👍
No need to learn those language, technologies are all written in English. Would be nice to use it but useless to even learn those languages.
You realize this channel is sponsored by the Chinese government?
And why are you surprised that he speaks English which basically everyone learns in school nowadays?
Let me tell you a joke: America claims to be a free country.
The U.S. government first banned Chinese mobile phones from entering the U.S. market, then banned Chinese cars from entering the U.S. market, and now even Chinese port cranes are banned from entering the U.S. market. U.S. congressmen asked Tiktok’s CEO: Does Tiktok need to be connected to the Internet? Netizens all over the world laughed when they saw it.
An absolute amazing and educational video! Wow! It is rare that I leave comments (even though I follow you), I felt compelled to comment here today. Let’s face facts. China is the most technologically advanced country on the planet. The Chinese government works for the people. In the USA, elected officials work for themselves, and their respective party. Congress has passed just 23 bills in the past two years! Corporate interests in the USA, combined with our political situation no doubt has put the brakes on the introduction of Chinese electric vehicles into the states. Profit before practicality! With that said, I question as to whether you will purchase an AVATR II or a NIO for Julija to get around Chongqing! Thank you Alex and the iChongqing for this excellent presentation!
Thanks Randy I tried my best to cover all in this video
Correction: In the US politicians work for their corporate masters that owned them!
You should check out some other channels that are not sponsored by the Chinese government to see the real China ;)
No doubt who will dominate the world market ❤❤
Alex, any chance you can bring these awesome NEVs back to Canada? I’ll definitely get one if they can be made available here!
美国和加拿大没有销售，美国是禁止中国汽车企业进驻美国市场的，不知道加拿大政府是不是也禁止中国车企进驻加拿大市场

@@chankaan888Sadly, not a joke. It’s a tragedy. We are the losers. We pay big bucks for old technology polluting vehicles.
@@Indraveer1357 The United States and the European Union prohibit the sale of Chinese cars that are too cheap. Cheap cars are obviously beneficial to consumers, but they are actually banned. It is really a joke.
Hi Alex always nice to see your cheerfull infomative videos ... thank you
China Car Very Very GOOD,🇨🇳👍👍👍
China was smart enough to take advantage of Tesla open sourcing their technologies. The west decided they knew better than Tesla. If it were a baseball game? The west is trying to get to first base, while the Chinese started on second, stole third and are sliding into home plate for the score.
Proton Malaysia is using China technology....
Really I like it they are so powerful and intelligent
And yet also so humble. I think it's Buddhism.
So is an iPod from 10 years ago😂😂😂
Well done 👍. Engels, in his work "Critical Outline of National Economics," provides a profound analysis and argumentation on the philosophical significance of competition. He articulates the laws of competition as "demand and supply constantly striving to adapt to each other but never ceasing to do so." Competition, according to Engels, is not just an economic phenomenon but a law governing economic development. He views this law as a natural one and asserts that "it is a law that gives rise to revolution." However, this precise judgment is often overlooked in the capitalist economic sphere that pursues monopolies, forgetting that "competition" itself embodies revolutionary forces and developmental impetus. This simultaneously underscores that solely relying on economic sanctions and containment is unlikely to succeed.
They're years ahead.
Definitely true.
Wow almost every PRC can speak English! Can we say the same thing about Americans and Europeans about speaking Chinese ? This is why they are Top.
Europeans speak English as a 2nd language just like the Chinese… There are over 40 countries in Europe, only UK and Malta have English as native… Isn’t it Americans who actually don’t speak any other language?
Do you how many dollars and how much time the Chinese spend on learning English?
Yes instead of provoking wars the money squandered can be used to give every American a few EVs.
Go NIO! 👍😎
Amazing vehicle!
Remarkable vehicle, futuristic ambiance, and articulate individuals, showcasing remarkable English communication skills👍👍
fantastic show，thank you Alex
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very impressive
Only the outlook and The colour is so beautiful！And you can swap battery in 3 minutes! 😮❤
I would rather own one of these cars than the gas-guzzling American cars if there are more charging/swapping stations across the US
to refuel!
Cost don't enter the equation. 300,000.00
Thanks Alex for posting this wonderful video showcasing Chinese car companies tremendous advancements in modern car technology. Unfortunately, I live in America and know that our government will prohibit importation of these modern vehicles, accusing them of posing a national threat to the country’s security.
It sounds a bit pretentious, but what we see in China is just the beginning, The Chinese have made this progress against all attempts at the West's failure, especially the Americans. Today they are more independent in terms of most of the advanced equipment and parts that were dependent on the West, And it allows them to advance much faster, it won't be far before we see the Chinese who will be so advanced that their competition will be among themselves within China and not against the West.
Alex, you need to get your license! So you have the opportunity to drive electric cars. 👍🏻
Great video ❤great vehicle 👍💪
Amazing! Incredible!
Thank you for this video.
Just wow 🤩!!
With this kind of technology in the nev , does this mean we won’t need a driver’s license anymore since it can self drive and self park ?
I travel to China often and love the electric car scene in China (Tesla Driver).
If they let the Chinese electric cars in America in quantity it will disrupt a already fragile economy.
I would love to purchase a Chinese quality EV in the states but the amount of layoffs and factory closings would be too much.
Not just the car manufactures but all of the supply chain companies that are left in the US.
With over 300 EV manufactures making cars in China I would pick my brand very carefully, Avatar looks like a small startup and Nio is struggling. I would go with a established brand such as BYD or Zeekr. Even though I own a Tesla in the US I would not purchase one in China, there are much better options available there.
it all sounds good, but the prices are not realistic for the average buyer.Need to get prices down. the battery swap is great for Florida not so much in Minnesota in the winter when all the underneath is frozen solid and rusting over the years
@@enjoythedreamlife5658 Prices are coming down, that for sure. I remember in the late 70s a VCR player was $1500. That was a lot of money back then, now they are $3.50 at the thrift store. Just saying technology drives the cost down eventually. And yes I left the crazy northern weather a long time ago, but even then we had a beater car for bad weather, we didn't want salt or someone crashing into our good car during a icy day. You will never regret it when you do have the opportunity to own a quality EV, best of luck.
@@ELCEV Chinese cars will soon be sold in a dollar store along with the rest of their junk. No where near the Japs
for national security reasons haha
Consumers purchase EV because of their budget, functionality sizes, efficiency, reliability and quality.
A good example is Nissan leaf 🍃 sale well in the States vs BMW ie or Chevy Bolt
Because the Nissan leaf is mass production and compatible price have come out with new model/ style.
I do have some safety concerns about lithium ion and lithium polymer batteries for high current applications such as EVs. This is regardless of the country of design, origin and manufacture. But if we want progress we have to progress as a whole. China's approach is far less haphazard than that of "Western" nations. Breakthroughs in new battery technology / chemistry will, in my opinion, will not emanate from The USA or any other Western country. I'd bet good money on China developing new and innovative solutions.
Sodium batteries are significantly safer and cheaper, and they can improve to become smaller to be used for EVs.
@@Anonymous------ do sodium sulphur batteries work at ambient temperatures? ie ground level?
@@paulanderson7796
Sodium-ion battery:
Temperature range −20 °C to 60 °C. Same as lithium battery.
its working principle and cell construction are similar to those of lithium-ion battery (LIB) types, but it replaces lithium with sodium as the intercalating ion.
@@Anonymous------ when perforated what happens?
@@paulanderson7796
What happens when a car's gas tank gets perforated?
The US doesn't have the charging density of China so that limits NEV to some degree. Also, the US resists importation of Chinese NEV because it is, belatedly, trying to develop its own NEV sector. Like the use of QR codes for financial transactions, the US is falling behind in technology for the consumer sector. China is the future that the US needs to rise to for success in technology.
That's true. That's the biggest barrier in US for EV market to grow. The number of public charging stations in Beijing alone is more than total US combined. The government has to provide support to help EV market grow. China government provided subsidies earlier to EV manufacturers to help them grow. Starting from about 2 years ago, that subsidy was gone, instead, the subsidy has been given to support charging station manufacturers and installation. You can't expect private enterprises to do that. The government has to step in to support.
Hi Alex . Nice vlog thanks .
After chinese new year i want buy one EV car . I am thinking of ZEEKER , AVATR 11 , and the AION M8 or M9 .
May be NIO es8 .
By the way .. NIO is luxury car not normal . So it’s sells less than some brands . Also price a little expensive .
LI brands also similar
Wow, the young engineer speaks fluent English! Impressed!
What about the young lady at the end! Gosh, she speaks veeeery goooood English!
中國人才濟濟
Hahaha, that explains why america is extremely afraid of China's Huawei. Bravo, China 🎉👍👍👍
Amazing successful evs car made in China.
Nio saleswoman said battery swapping helps the electricity network because swap station can charge the batteries on off peak power. Also, if you have a problem with your battery, it can be swapped for a good one. If you have a charger at home and you are only doing local trips you can swap battery for one with less kWh so a destination charger at the supermarket will give you a full charge while you get your groceries. If you're going on a long trip you can pick up a higher kWh battery. Most important, your battery will never get old :) Good for Uber drivers! So, a combination of mostly new fast charging dispensers and a few swap stations could be a good idea, except it could make the cars more expensive.
Today Proten Malaysia is using China technology with Geely Motor Company...
Oh, I wanna move to China so bad.
Me too
I hope US and EU doesn't block the Avatar from sweeping the roads, when will I have my Avatar? Are these cars free from cyber hacking?
When they stop wasting money on wars in Ukraine , Israel, Taiwan, N Korea and M East.
China’s electric vehicles (EV) continue to accelerate ahead with its ability to make competitively priced vehicles as well as quality of its EV.
The price gap has widened, with the average retail price of an electric car available in China now less than half the price seen in both Europe and the US.
China cheapest electric vehicle costs 8% less than the cheapest ICE (internal combustion engine) equivalent.
Western’s electric vehicles models continue to cost more than their gasoline and diesel equivalents.
China’s EV are not only competing on price but also in terms of quality and power.
Intense price competition in China had forced Chinese EV makers to become more efficient to survive.
China provided tax breaks as most EV are exempted from sales tax.
China’s low labor costs helped too. The average European hourly wage rate is about 10 times the Chinese rate.
China becomes an increasingly influential manufacturer of EV by the relative affordability and the quality of its models in comparison to those produced by the West.
China shift its focus towards the research and development of new technologies and production processes designed specifically for a fully electrified future.
im german 33, living in germany & i want a chinese car!
NIo is good
很好
Chinese business are out
Of this world. No wounder
They are number one in

👍Good. Very good car😅
How do you charge up electrical battery ??? gas and coal ????
They were REALLY shocked when the Bloomberg Adam Minter article: Electric Car Fires in China Should Set Off Alarms was published.
There are more Scientists than Politicians in China than any country in the world🤣
China: we have EVs
US: No worries, We have war, war and more wars!
Sounds good except for Huawei.
I wish America would stop with arrogance and start embracing China. The two if they can work together the world would be a better place.
The problem I c with electric is cost of batteries. I've heard about replacement batteries costing more than the car. I'd go with hydrogen before electric 😎
China is passing USA fast.
Am waiting one ev am still use Petro but china u a ❤
Cars need to “talk to each other.“ It’s inevitable. It needs to happen, yesterday.
Tesla is NOT shocked at all. They have helped the Chinese immensely. When Tesla open sourced their technology years ago? The Chinese were the only ones who took them up on it. The rest of the OEM's just laughed at it. They still do. They are still trying to get to first base, while the Chinese started on third.
Tesla's mission statement has always been to accelerate the global transition to renewable energy. And Elon is not stupid enough to believe he can do it alone. Hell the Cybertruck is the first vehicle in history to use a super efficient 48V low voltage system instead of 12V. And he sent ALL the OEM's a copy of the specs in how to copy it. Jim Farley at Ford acknowledged it and said "Its a great day for the industry, Thanks Elon." Heck you can talk to some of the CEO's of China's EV manufacturers and they all speak very highly of Tesla and Elon and say he is a great friend.
Using an over-unity motor with the size of a shoebox would mean never having to change any batteries nor have the expensive batteries and just a regular car battery to start the over-unity motor enabling the car to go until the bearings wear out in any of the motors. The cost of the over-unity motor would be significantly less than the batteries and completely environmentally friendly. When will these motors become available?
So what if your phone is lost,how do you get into the car??
Use your card or your other phone.
The Chinese car companies are the most competitive car companies in the world," Musk told investors during Tesla's Q4 earnings call. "If there are no trade barriers established, they will pretty much demolish most other car companies in the world," he added.
Chinese EVs will dominate the world. In the west, only Tesla will remain standing.
Tesla is behind, If tesla is not built in China, I will be bankrupt a few years ago@@TH-dr1kg
and TOGG
@@TH-dr1kg Your mind is still stuck with past experience by saying that 'Tesla is far more advanced than any Chinese EVs'.
@@TH-dr1kg BYD certainly makes better EV than Tesla. More importantly, Huawei's auto drive system is far ahead of Tesla, therefore, the recently coming out to market M9 beat Tesla shit out in every aspect.
@@TH-dr1kg If you know what real Huawei is, I bet you would be scared sh--- out
two years ago chinese people still fancy benz bmw as.their dream car now only poor man in china drives a bmw or mercedes
China 🇨🇳 leads in EV
When human first discovered fire，we were scared.
Great video! Here in Toronto Canada absolutely no sign of Chinese EVs. EVs in general are still scarce. Yesterday at a small parking lot, I did some informal survey. About 20 cars none was EV. On the streets you will see a Tesla once every five minutes perhaps.
Future of EV is as close as another 50 to 100 years to implement in America, because electricity supplies still are not sufficient to factories and household use. Charging stations are non-existant yet from lots of places especially in highways and toll roads.
Chinees did already what we thought. But the thing is thinking more, creating more original ideas and getting it realized via saftwares. Cars are not cars anymore.
Need some real numbers here…like in dollars and KWH, battery size. This “swapping” is also very confusing. Can these function as spy vehicles for the CCP?

Is Tesla Shanghai uncompetitive? Why is it falling behind?
There are 6 Tesla factories in the world. In 2022 & 2023 over 1/2 the Tesla's in the world were made in Shanghai with the gigafactory #'s for 2023 increased yr-on-yr by over 1/3 to 950K+ vehicles. Per YT channel 'The Electric Viking' 2023 highest selling pure EV vehicle brands worldwide (not hybrids) were Tesla (1.8M), BYD (1.6M), Volkswagen Group (657K Jan-Nov), SAIC (647K Jan-Nov), and Geely-Volvo (532K Jan-Nov). BYD did overtake Tesla in the 4th quarter, but I believe Tesla was retooling its Shanghai assembly plant for the revamped Tesla 3. Perhaps Tesla buyers were holding off until the revamped model is available for sale?
Right after my post, The Electric Viking released a 9min YT video "Tesla slash price of Model Y+ and Model 3 Highland in China" that does a great job of explaining Tesla including its operations & sales in China.
The car cost 33,000 the battery replacement is 29,000😅
ika pun nuk kam kohe
Dam I feel like a pumpkin 😂
There's so many unused cars in China that has been park everywhere. Meaning it's not salelable now especially if it's from China.
You're really funny.
Of course people don't use cars 24 hours a day.
If people are not using their cars, their cars are parked.
Don't be ridiculous.
@@Madpett hahaha you're so funny. Too many cars everywhere. Park everywhere. You're abnormal. People needs job and money not too many cars. You're ridiculous. Lol
Tesla is hardly *shocked* let alone _surprised._
Tesla should be because Huawei's auto drive system on this car is way better than Tesla's. Huawei's system doesn't require a GPS map to drive because it can auto drive on anywhere as long as there is a road and under any kind of weather, raining, foggy, at night......
Avatr 2 seems better than NIO
China has not only developed EVs but, they have improved them also. There are EVs in china that provide 500 to 600 plus miles in range. What a shame that the serious american traveler can't benefit from this. Infact it seems like americans settle for less in EVs. Iam a serious traveler. With my travels taking me over 6000 miles a year not including other mid range travels, A short range EV just wouldn't work for me. This is one of the reasons why I don't buy one. My jaguar XJl gives me a range of 570 miles which supersedes any EV. The United States always misses out on so much. Decades behind the far more advanced countries of the far east and Europe, they still don't have highspeed bullet train technology which is also, (fully electric)! A country that can put a man on the moon still has so much to improve apon. Once the EV is improved, I'll be the first one at the gates to buy one....
Americans always say they have the freedom of choice. As long as it's only Tesla. Lol😂😂😂😂😂
Are you getting the message? E M is moving his EV factory to Mexico
big oil has left the channel
the is not posefel cold plase
Why not discuss all the electric car grave yards thru out china that i sèe in other china videos or all the electric cars stuck on the highways during the Chinese new year travel.
Ex rentals.
What a bunch of bs. Man from Avatr is talking about monthly cost of driving EV vs 2.0 liter gasoline car. He forgot to say how much time one will save monthly, with classic car comparing to those who must waste time while charging batteries on their EV How much will cost repairing and maintenance of EV compared to classic car?
And not to talk about how much one charge will last in cold climate? Less than half the time specified by manufacturer.
They are talking only about bells and whistles. No one is talking about pollution caused by digging and extracting lithium, cobalt and other materials needed for EV production. Nobody is talking about how we can produce so much electric energy for all those EVs etc.
Next, the mantra of this century is safety and privacy, but we are exposed with our personal informations like never before in entire history of human kind. Also, this stories about safety is so sick and making people so dumb like never before. "You don't have to think, this device will do this for you because it is for your safety"
How stupid one must be to believe that companies are giving something for free - free x-time charging, free parking, free... Nothing is free in this consumer world.
Man said - say goodbye to lost keys, because you are unlocking car with your phone. I know more people who lost their phone, than those who lost their keys. So? One must be really stupid to believe in those fairy tales.

Meanwhile, in the USA, Elon is advertising on his X social media to sell his tesla cars by asking his customers to buy his car with the government's subsidiary or tax rebate. A billionaire is trying to make more profits from middle income Americans while the US deficits is growing to $35 trillion. Greed
Us is nothing in front of China in terms of cars technology
They should design a new model.
Call it; Torch.
Hmm, is he one of those Western Marionettes Serpentza often mentions on his channel?
I m not the kid of person to be negative but,,, you only talked about the advantage ,,,none of the disavantages,,,
The only negative is geopolitical, because the Chinese caught the west sleeping, and their response is ignorance, arrogance and racist.
No country for the Electric cars
Tesla can only do so much.
But China Ev can do so
Much better technology
Then American one.

Hey Alex, I hate to think how the five systers will feel about the saving in operating these Chinese cars, this why the USA will classify it as a threat to national security Trump is waiting around the corner
There are several huge advantages in the use of hydrogen fuel cells instead of lithium batteries, chief among which are: (1) the time needed to recharge batteries, (2) the limited range, (3) lithium is a finite source, expensive to mine, (4) catches on fire too easily, and (5) is a polluting hazard Hydrogen fuel cells use hydrogen gas to pass through an electrochemical catalyst barrier that when mixed with oxygen ions, electricity is produced.
This electricity can then be used to power electric motors in an EV drive chain. The advantages of hydrogen in a fuel cell are (1)there's plenty of it all around us, (2) the only waste product is mostly water, (3) refilling with hydrogen takes only a few minutes, (4) a fuel cell will supply enough electric power for vehicles to go literally a thousand mile or more unlike batteries, (5) hydrogen has a lower flash point than gasoline/petrol and when encased in modern materials that can withstand shock, is a whole lot safer and (6) cheaper to produce than mining for lithium and drilling for a ever-dwindling supply of oil. In fact, the conversion of battery powered vehicles over to fuel cells is a whole lot easier since the same electric motors are still used.
China should move away from battery powered EVs and switch over to hydrogen fuel cells instead. It seems to be more a vehicle of the future than lithium batteries. What does everyone else think?
Hydrogen is more safer than electricity ? Remember the German Hindenberg hydrogen airship fire ball in WWI ? Also I believe China CATL is developing a sodium base battery that is more safer, efficient and cheaper to make for the future. Lithium is on its way out too. China is pushing ahead with her EV batteries research to be ahead the world and to stay ahead.
