AVATR 11 // First REVIEW - HUAWEI+CATL Collab // CHINA DRIVER
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- I had the chance to drive and test the new AVATR 11 from Chang An - only for about an hour but it's a fab-looking car at a great price for what you get inside. The SUV wars are heating up!
Also got to test my filming and editing skills as I have not done that for a while - enjoy!
ABOUT ME: I'm Elliot, I love cars and love driving. I have been living in China for a while and want to share the cars that are only available in China with a global audience. I hope you enjoy watching the video as much as I enjoy making it! Any suggestions for cars you would like me to test next, pop them in the comments :)
*I am not being paid by anyone, not the manufacturers or the rental company, to make these videos.
This car has the potential to become a dream car for many of us 🔥
This is a great looking SUV crossover. Chinese EV is getting better and better.
Thanks for informative and interesting review . Changan cars in Saudi Arabia is one of our favourite car brand trust worthy and reliable
Best looking EV car out there! I heard its price is between $50k & 55k which is very good price tag!
front looks great too. the blended bumper/headlights. chefs kiss
I love sleek designs. I love the Avatr 1 1. Makes me think this wud have been the next gen Range Rover Velar design. Velar designers have got to work even harder to go beyond this.
Double tap to open the door is for safety reason. You don't want to accidentally knock on the button to find your door opening when the car is moving at speed.
That barely made any sense, door locks automatically from certain speed as a foundamental setting at most occasions.
That’s the best looking car I have ever seen.
I guess laferrari looks better
Such a unique car, Western sourness can't cope no more
This SUV looks nice, it has some Ferrari Purosangue in the front and the overall shape kinda reminds me of an Aston DBX and Jaguar. Not saying they have copied anyone, it still looks unique.
I can see both the DBX and Purosangue in it - this is the EV version that a few more of us can afford!
@R. Dox Lealizen I know they just look similar. The Purosangue was based on the SF90, no one copied no one.
Lol, what do you think those Korean cars? Unique? 😂
Foolish comment! Volvo , London taxi , MG , M.Benz Smart series already sell to China company!
Haahahahha. Are you sane.
You are saying I am not saying they copied and then mentioned Ferrari. It was launched before Ferrari's SUV.
don't be a fool 😂😂😂
love that spiral dash design, i hope there's ambient lighting on it
it does have ambient lighting,u can check out other video
Great looking car - get an Model Y soon but already want to change to an Avatr 😆
I really love the whole design it really hits my taste.Great wall design team seriously needs to learn from this.
长城辉煌不再了，管理体系很差，中国汽车品牌竞争激烈，不进则退！
长城的技术其实不差，就是设计有点跟不上，但是内饰设计还可以@@malagebide
It's almost painful, but as I usualy suv hater, I must admit I like the look of this one !
And I just love that vortex in the middle of the dashboard
Yeah, it's really fashionable and futuristic
i love SUV, but hate the Semi-SUV that only few inches taller than sedan.
@@ericwong4213 that's the crossover. Yeah they don't make a lot of sense and most are ugly, so I agree.
Great review, China makes the best EVs and cars by far, you're so lucky haha.
I agree!
Probably the best car right now, design, tech, plush, cool, unique interiors... All top stuff
Wish they sell this is Europe and UK
That's an awesome looking car with advance technology. I wonder though if they'll find their way in the US and for sure people will love it and will stand out amongst its peers. Thanks for sharing. 👍
With so many Huawei technology inside the car, the US & UK Government will definitely ban the vehicle from their shores due to "security reasons"...😂
@@LordKarma101I agree
really great design!
This interior design has a lot of taste.. I've seen many Chinese EV designs trying a lot of different things but this one works very well. It's even got an architectural touch to it. It is a very tasty thing.
I really love the stylish headlights,tail window, dramatic and powerful wide shoulders.
Awesome car !
The merger of consumer electronics and electric vehicle. Interesting stuff 🤔
I Agree 100% with you, its a true beauty (but i want open and close my doors by my self)
I envisage doors being ripped off by passing cars plus knocking other cars in supermarket car parks.
@@mingpoyang It has sensors, bro.
@@teohck7630 Really? You will find top Mercs or RR have closing mechanism only for this reason. Another important issue, has the "senser" the ability to restrain doors from being blown fiercely open in gale winds?
@@mingpoyang Obviously, the door is controlled winds won't affect it.
Elegantly modern and simple design with a few interesting styling details. Since it's partnered with Huawei and using it's computing platform this EV might not be approved in a number of countries.
😂 Yes, you are perhaps correct. I am guessing that in the UK it will be banned because they will suspect Huawei tech of spying!!!
Paranoid behaviour.
Really liking this SUV though, very stylish.
They should ditch the auto opening and closing doors... make it an option that you can choose by vehicle settings.
Great car.
Nearly most Chinese car coming from China will have Huawei - spreading the use of Harmony OS.
Very nice
Thanks for the video Mate
You can fix every door issue you have through the settings.
Chinese is doing a great job for humanity keep doing the best
Must have manual door options, absolute must for convenience and people that need to drive somewhere in a rush!
Gorgeous car
Thats a top class interior
Gordon Bennett! It's a fantastic design! I'd say it's a little like the DBX only this is (dare I say it) sexier. Love the curves and silhouette of this car. The tech is a little over-engineered, they need to fix that.
Wholeheartedly agree - its tech for the sake of selling more cars. When a nice paired down version with less tech would be a great drivers car.
This is the beast from Avatar movie the Toruk Makto 😲
Such a cool car!!!
Good video but would be nice to see the instrument cluster too
looks magnificent. let see how long it sticks around.
Overall cool design. The rear seems inspired from velar and jaguar f type. Nothing wrong with that.
It grows on you!
What I wanna know when are Made in China EV going come to Europe specifically UK🤔. I've watched a few of UA-cam videos test drive that you do on EV Chinese that are really good looking and I'm sure the upscale tech as well, so what is going on is it the competition they're afraid or something alse, I mean competition is good for consumers and also for new innovation. What do you think 🤔? by the again handsome car👌🏾💯
MG is a Chinese EV
@@gadgetgasspoll yeah you right but they're not as handsome as the Chinese EV I've seen on your videos but hey maybe in the future 🤔🙂👍🏾
Watch out for Australia and New Zealand as the beacon of Chinese EVs release in UK, as both countries are RHD.
Sure thing that competition benefits consumers, but capitalism isn't about the consumers is it🥺
looks really nice
Android Auto and Apple Carplay can be used?
自动驾驶功能才是这辆车的精髓
Looks fantastic.
This suv is beautiful, I do not like the small pop out spoiler-they could have done without that. Everything else is good. Love the steering wheel and seats. The overall look of the suv is very impressive and it does look good at every angle.
You need to double pull the lever to open the door in BMWs since e9x
Why allways talking about copy? Don’t understand. All car Brands do the Same. Watching how other make. Build better
it's mostly from Americans and Westerners, it's the hate becos China is rising and it pains them, and they undermine everything they put out to make themselves feel better. The thing is China doesn't care 😂
Awesome. Why isn't this on fully charged? 😫
I can see a bit of Porsche Mission E styling from the front air "scoops", but plenty of other cars have that. Also some GV60 from the lights. It's a bit sparse in the back with only massaging tech. You didn't mention ventilation/AC from the B-pillar or the center, nor any USB. Does it have none? As for the international availability and pricing, maybe you could put such numbers in the video details?
Can do - international availability TBC. No B pillar AC, and I didn't see a USB in the rear, just wireless charging.
Wow I like this car a lot.
when is this car coming to the uk ?
wait... you have to open the driver door in order to lift the boot?
omg..this suv look very very nice
If there is a large frunk I want to see it, if there is a LED screen at the bottom of the wind screen I also want to see it. However, if there is a bug in the middle console I don't want to hear about it.
Confession time - sorry, Elliot, I laughed hard at your frustration with the gimmicky doors!
I haven't watched the live-stream yet , did they have lower-spec 5-seat versions on this event? Show off the 600+kRMB version by all means - they should have the confidence to include the mid-300kRMB base model as well.
You could do with flashing up RMB-equivalent prices in (say) USD, GBP, AUD, like back over on your Fully Charged vids.
Yes point noted on the prices, I was in a hurry to get this one out! I did see the 5 seat version, but they wanted to show off the 4 seat one more. The 600k one wasn't there and no-one could tell me anything about it!
i have the huwawi mate 50 pro and watch gt 3 and mate book d14 so i need this car
Lovely looking car! Does the UI screen support English language?
Not yet.
Magnificent car!
Jaguar I pace meets rear window from jaguar XJS 1980s married to Genesis GV60 with a Tesla Y interior - looks nice though :)
Actually will this export to outside China?
Beautiful design. Waiting in Nepal
Beautiful!
The exterior definitely doesn't look like it hasn't been that much copied to legacy car brands but in the interior the seat looks like the one from the Mercedes AMG sports car and the back seat air con also looks like Mercedes Benz system and the dash behind the screen I can see some Mercedes concept car Avatar features like the glowing tunnel.
Big wheels are not good for efficiency. But this seems to be a premium vehicle, where people do not care about efficiency as much. Do we know what is the drag coefficient?
I love this a lot.
What is the current cost for v11?
Could you do a review on ChangAn’s other brand. The Shenlan SL03
OK, China sells more than 10000 vehicles every month
Planning to!
Too bad…no head up display, what were they thinking. And why didn’t you address that in your video??
What about autopilot?
This was an early pre-production model which didn’t have it at the time.
I don’t know model looks like this car…please tell me if i wrong .
I dont understand why many EV SUVs have a huge ass hood. They dont even need all that space! Why dont they make the car more compact!! Look at Tesla's Hood, its bent and not a square, still has tons of storage!
love it love it love it
This can be sold with a home charger? Does it have sentry mode like Tesla?
哨兵模式是什么高科技吗？😂
I wish this car was a PHEV.
They could have sold like crazy
Looks like what a proper electric GLC should have been
Looks very perspectively... Is he has rhe English language in menu?
Looks a bit slab faced, although the number plate helps break it up. The back window looks shite. Side styling looks good for an SUV.
Fully Charged Show怎么没有这个视频
Indonesia need this futuristic car
Esemka kan pake mobilnya Changan bos 🤭
Mungkin bisa dilobi Esemka bawa mobil ini ke Indonesia 🤣
what about the Range
TOPÍSSIMOOOO!!!
Would those cars come to the USA?
Highly unlikely as the Trump administration put Huawei on the list of banned companies from China and the Biden administration signed the Secure Equipment Act of 2021 which kept the ban in place. This is why many Chinese automakers are sending great EVs to Europe and other places and we are left out here in the US. They would have to remove all of the Huawei technology in the vehicle in order for it to be allowed in the US.
With the kind of anti -china sentiment going now, No. Yeah, politics sucks. And it always the people pay the price. Rich politicians don't give a damn.
555 km is a practical range ?
and how much time it takes to charge 100 % battery ?
About one hour, I mean the high-voltage charging pile.
Can you also review the new SAIC Feifan R7 Chinese EV? I been looking for one that I can understand at least cus everyone I came across was in Chinese and I didn't understand a word
I will see if I can get hold of one.
@@electricelliotrichards that would be great. Thanks ✨💯
Doea it use harmony os?
it is，exactly it calls “鸿蒙座舱”
The advantage of this car is the price man.
❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
50000 millions billions dollars for u babez 〽️
Price please
Have your left FullyCharged, Elliot?
No - 5 videos filmed and waiting to come out there!
@@electricelliotrichards Nice! It's been a while since your last video. Thought I'd check! Keep up your great work!
Any plans to release in Australia
It looks amazing - but at the same time, it does have some Ford Mustang E and Jaguar ePace hints. I don’t think it looks that unique - but it does look great.
Sure, lots of hints but overall a good effort
Based off of that logic no car today looks unique.
Price
The best
that is one sexy beast. front headlights have genesis look to it.
Great review.
For me the overall styling of this car reminds of having gone out to dinner & a movie & then having to unbutton the top two buttons of your jeans at the movie because you were a guts at dinner & ate too much - bloated in other words. Also the frontal height & fairly large nose on this car means it would be a bit difficult to grab anything of any weight in it, out of the frunk with ease as you have to lean over quite a bit - which would get old pretty quickly, especially if you were on the shortish side. Got a ladder anyone?
Plenty of nice gadgets but irrespective of budget, I'm a of a more practical minded bent so I don't fit into the demographic the manufacturer was aiming at.
Eshuntiye!!!
They need to build this and the Avatr 12 in Mexico...use the trade agreement with Mexico and *POOF* bring it to the US.
I think this is the way they will approach getting these to the US
I hope so, @@electricelliotrichards I hope CATL, SAIC, BEIC and all the larger Chinese makers do this and soon.
We could not see the frunk. Only the top of it.
what if you get stuck inside! ahhhh!
how about quality all of materials ?
❤我很喜歡這架車。👍👍👍
Brasil?
