You truly have to have a death wish if you buy an EV. You might spontaneously self-combust... and if your car is in the garage of your house... Bye Bye house too.
@@smalfishfung I think it was implied they were talking about Chinese brands but way to skirt around the issue. How about mentioning the $20K to replace a Tesla battery or the fact it is very difficult to extinguish a Tesla fire due to the chemicals in the batteries, such as the case where it took 12,000 Gallons Of Water To Extinguish Burning Tesla Model S. Lithium-ion batteries can go into something called thermal runaway, leading to a fire that takes an enormous amount of effort to put out. That’s considerably more than a normal car fire, which can take as little as 500 gallons (1,893 liters) to put out, according to the fire department.
Remember this is China. They scam you and each other at every single level of society. Who knows what problems these cars have. Half the country floods year round.

And you have owned a BMW very few now will go to 100000 miles. Kias are already outlasting a BMW. Even Elon Musk has said his best performing Tesla is one from china.
Electric cars have a much lower resale value. The market may be ignorant of this, but it's a fact that a battery degrades over time far more quickly than a gas engine.
Have to keep in mind how China's high import tax as well as limits on number plate issuance distorts the new-car market. This distortion cascades to the second-hand market.

Over and over, the electrics are pushed and the gas powered cars are not. Don't the consumers in China face the same long charge times, waits for chargers and other problems that American EV owners despise? The voice over seems to make it sound as if the consumers want the EVs over gas.
Actually, yes. You should've seen the reports during the winter of massive groups of EVs stuck on roads. Also, the cost of charging in China has been reportedly increasing of late. The problem is getting any news you can trust out of China. Assume any news has been "sanitized".
Where are all of these suckers supposed to charge their vehicles? People there live stacked on top of each other in towers, do they even have garages where they can charge them?
That's why this is all fake news. China has thousands of electric cars sitting in compounds rotting away collecting dust. The manufacturers there sell and register them to themselves and then park them. This is how they report x amount of cars sold and look good

Both used luxury cars and evs are all lease products not designed to last. Ofcourse they are worthless in second hand market, this is true in all markets not just Chinese markets. People who want reliability and long term ownership don’t buy luxury or evs brands they opt for simpler designs that are engineered and built to last and not as a 2 year lease disposable product.

Very true, but sadly I am sure this will be overlooked by the average Chinese person. They were making a huge amount of money before off the working class I’m sure. Now that they have to slash prices and it finally doesn’t work in there favor i am sure they are going to be salty about it. Boo hoo

The theme song of EVs made with Chinese batteries should be Arthur Brown’s *Fire!* If you are curious, it’s on YT. The stanza that hits home the hardest is: “You’ve fought hard and you’ve saved and earned, but all of it’s going to burn!” (“She” should take note.).
-Chinese 🇨🇳 property sector, which accounts for 30% of GDP, is crashing. -Exports and imports, accounting for 37% GDP, are down. -Foreign investment is falling over 90% compared to it's peak in 2018. -Foreign visitors are down 96% compared to the pre-pandemic level in 2019. -Consumer prices are experiencing deflation. -Youth unemployment hits over 21%, a record. -It's fast shrinking workforce is 10 years old than neighboring countries. *Still, China keeps reporting outrageous GDP numbers.* Lol
Come on, we all know 40,000 is just a sales tactic to allure buyers into going into the lot, get notified that it's 40,000 plus some hidden fees to put it in a more believable price range, then some people who go there get salestalked into buying a different car that's close to 40,000.
These BBA vehicles are Luxury meaning high end and functional with good reliability proven over decades in complete contrast to Chinese made EVs. BBA should just pull out of China and let the population fight over crappy cars that catch fire daily until China can mature enough to drive high end cars.
Who the hell wants an electric vehicle over a combustion engine? Does China bypass all the issue we see in the US with long lines at charging stations, long charging times, expensive repairs, reduced mileage during winter, more damage to roads due to weight, fires, etc? Isn't this the same channel that shows just how bad Chinese electric cars are like the new Xiaomi SU7 that everyone was looking forward to but was so bad people were regretting the purchase. All the fires, mishaps with self driving, bad braking or poor durability that ended up with shredded front ends, etc, etc.
I just don't understand the thinking of the Chinese people if your going to spend money on a car which is a lot even with the low prices but the odds are the company will be bankrupted and not able to cover the warranty in less than a year
Rolls , Aston , Bentley high performance makes including S series especially Porsche are all out in the next 3 years.infact I can’t imagine stretching to 5 years. Maybach, Rolls Bentley have all lost there exclusivity.
the more the competition, the more models you will get, the earlier and faster obsolescence, the faster the price for the latest model will drop and the less people will want second hand. Cars are becoming the new laptops; new tech gadgets, lower costs and dropping value almost immediately. All of this means that there is no way that you will be able to keep a car for 10 years as parts and maintenance will be not viable for manufacturers (too many models, too many gadgets, no harmonisation).
Those cars were probably flooded or something. There is no way they are discounting ninety five percent. If you open the trunk probably a fish would flop out.
German money pits with rapid depreciation... that's not unique to China. And the used car market if up against a large swath of people who can't afford to eat non toxic foods. It's the price of new to watch, and you can see they're very stingy. China is a dead end.
Deflation is a sign that their economy is going to be in BIG trouble and probably faster than anyone thinks, their biggest economic source was Real Estate and that has crashed already
Well we can see what happen in us market and economy clear as well as any other countries in the world. But you can never know what is going on in China bcoz whatever happens in China stay in China(except covid) government don't allow such news to spread out in the world.

In the early 90s I supplied hundreds of used Mercedes Cars to china - the only stipulation was rever and air
The theme song of EVs made with Chinese batteries should be Arthur Brown’s *Fire!*
If you are curious, it’s on YT. The stanza that hits home the hardest is: “You’ve fought hard and you’ve saved and earned, but all of it’s going to burn!” (“She” should take note.).
-Chinese 🇨🇳 property sector, which accounts for 30% of GDP, is crashing.
-Exports and imports, accounting for 37% GDP, are down.
-Foreign investment is falling over 90% compared to it's peak in 2018.
-Foreign visitors are down 96% compared to the pre-pandemic level in 2019.
-Consumer prices are experiencing deflation.
-Youth unemployment hits over 21%, a record.
-It's fast shrinking workforce is 10 years old than neighboring countries.
*Still, China keeps reporting outrageous GDP numbers.* Lol
China's gdp has exceeded one thousand trillion dollars, hasn't it?
Wonder if we will see gray market luxury used cars coming over from China?
Come on, we all know 40,000 is just a sales tactic to allure buyers into going into the lot, get notified that it's 40,000 plus some hidden fees to put it in a more believable price range, then some people who go there get salestalked into buying a different car that's close to 40,000.
pretty sure, people will pay money to smash luxury car...
They let go for bargain and not quality. Everything have its pros and cons. Most buyers just buy to flex.
These BBA vehicles are Luxury meaning high end and functional with good reliability proven over decades in complete contrast to Chinese made EVs. BBA should just pull out of China and let the population fight over crappy cars that catch fire daily until China can mature enough to drive high end cars.
I will never own another BM-Trouble-U. They can’t even last 100k miles with proper maintenance. The entire electrical system is a nightmare too.
New Honda dropped from CN¥140k to CN¥70k is US$9,800!
When all the big companies are moving out of China, hence massive unemployment, why invest more in EV cars, who will buy?
Who the hell wants an electric vehicle over a combustion engine? Does China bypass all the issue we see in the US with long lines at charging stations, long charging times, expensive repairs, reduced mileage during winter, more damage to roads due to weight, fires, etc?
Isn't this the same channel that shows just how bad Chinese electric cars are like the new Xiaomi SU7 that everyone was looking forward to but was so bad people were regretting the purchase. All the fires, mishaps with self driving, bad braking or poor durability that ended up with shredded front ends, etc, etc.
This is how it's working... The price of cars goes down over the years as it gets older
As what i predict. US & EU Luxury items will be out of China Market within the next 5 year. It will be 100% sure..
I just don't understand the thinking of the Chinese people if your going to spend money on a car which is a lot even with the low prices but the odds are the company will be bankrupted and not able to cover the warranty in less than a year
Rolls , Aston , Bentley high performance makes including S series especially Porsche are all out in the next 3 years.infact I can’t imagine stretching to 5 years.
Maybach, Rolls Bentley have all lost there exclusivity.
the more the competition, the more models you will get, the earlier and faster obsolescence, the faster the price for the latest model will drop and the less people will want second hand. Cars are becoming the new laptops; new tech gadgets, lower costs and dropping value almost immediately. All of this means that there is no way that you will be able to keep a car for 10 years as parts and maintenance will be not viable for manufacturers (too many models, too many gadgets, no harmonisation).
but that cars luxury have more than 11 years are already old..
In china 90% make debts for cars that they cannot afford now they must sell fast
Even here in my country used luxury cars are very cheap. Nobody wants them, it costs too much just to do basic maintenance.
Those cars were probably flooded or something. There is no way they are discounting ninety five percent. If you open the trunk probably a fish would flop out.
It is impossible for me to follow what the narrator is saying, while in the images I see some individuals who seem to be barking more than talking.
He’s a good pitchman.
That would make for an amazing car commercial
I’m mad as hell!!!
Can those cars be ship?
regarding prices sounds like paradise
it just shows how mcu money in developed countries we throw away by buying overpriced products
40,000 Yuan is like ₹5lakh (₹500,000) in India which is very cheap for Luxury Cars since BMW here in India starts at ₹50lakh (₹5 million)
40,000.00 Yuan is less than 6,000.00 dollars US. What???
German money pits with rapid depreciation... that's not unique to China. And the used car market if up against a large swath of people who can't afford to eat non toxic foods.
It's the price of new to watch, and you can see they're very stingy. China is a dead end.
Not just china, Indonesia too people is losing interest in ICE car😂
It's quicker to walk in your gridlocked hellhole cities.
Those are ancient cars at least 10+ years old. That's their real market price. Nothing new here.
Deflation is a sign that their economy is going to be in BIG trouble and probably faster than anyone thinks, their biggest economic source was Real Estate and that has crashed already
With the numerous floods I would not be surprised if all those vehicles are water damaged in some way😅
The problem in China is the fierce competition where everyone wants to be like the other
how do you import these cars
This is true in china engine cars are really cheap now .
Mercy This (Mercedes)..🤣
they can’t sell these overseas for more?
Well we can see what happen in us market and economy clear as well as any other countries in the world. But you can never know what is going on in China bcoz whatever happens in China stay in China(except covid) government don't allow such news to spread out in the world.
Dude that x6 is like 2008! How much do you expect to pay for it? If 3:36 You buy that car maintenance will be x3 the buy price. A person that has only 5k usd to buy a car will not buy a car that costs x3 to maintain come the f on…
20000 yuan for a LAND ROVER?? That's about $2500 US!
Well why would you spend more 5k to 10k on a car? You don't need luxury, all you need it for is to drive from one place to the other...
Not even worth stealing, or were they already?
same in india
