First time seeing this guy, don't know him but what a review, no unnecessary awkward situations trying to be funny like most of the car journalists, straight to the point and he highlighted important things. One of the best car reviews I've seen in a while in SA, hope to see more of him🎉
I don't know why but I immediately liked this guy before he even started reviewing.... I think it's also refreshing that sometimes it's Ciro, sometimes it's Ash and now Jacob. Amazing work guys
About time, thanks for printing my name on the car, I appreciate it. The hazard button is by the rear view mirror. To help potential purchasers, some points to note. The boot lid opening height can be adjusted in the infotainment system. The seats are real leather and are really comfortable. It has a phone screen sharing software called CarbitLink which is adequate. It has roughly 30% more power than the Chery tiggo 4 and 7, and jolion. I have owned the car since launch, taken it off road as well, it's a solid good car. Best car in it's segment.
6:47 well the hazard lights button are actually located in the ceiling of the car😅 by the way my big sister bought this car last month and i can say it is a really good looking car and the features in are actually really easy to use 10/10 in my opinion 👀✨💕😁
I’ve had this car for over four months now and have done 5000km on it so far. Not only does it turn heads but is very fun and comfortable to drive. I love minimalistic infotainment and climate controls and find it rather easy to use. It might not have android auto but it has Car bit link screen software which makes connecting via Apple and Android phones a breeze.
@@polar3553 If you compare this car is similar cars available in China this is definitely not the best but for the South African market with so few options to choose from this in my opinion is the best value for money.
@@polar3553 This car is really fast and it feels very solid with almost no engine or wind noise. I think it is probably faster then 80% of the cars on South African roads. The 130kw and 305Nn of torque is almost as fast as the latest Tiguan R line which has 162kw and 350Nm but the big difference is that Tiguan R line costs double the price of the Beijing X55.
Welcome to the reviewer, first time I've seen him. I'm still a skeptic when it comes to Chinese cars, but great review nonetheless - looks like he actually enjoys what he does. Some reviewers have this persona of being too bothered to enjoy it. Breath of fresh air honestly. Cars are fun, reviewers should look like they are having fun.
Met Jacob a few years ago when i won a trip to NYC with 94.7. Such a cool guy. He was a xar enthusiast then already. Glad to see him finally making it onto this channel. Great review. Hope he becomes a regular
I have been waiting for this review! Excellent job Jacob! Really enjoyed the style of your review. And I think you've managed to sell the car. I want one!
Awesome to see a new face.... what a fantastic review Jacob, keep it coming 👏 you were detailed and straight to the point but the fuel consumption is too high.
I strongly agree that this guy is a great reviewer, unlike those awkward usual guys who TRY to be funny and end up coming off as LAME and AWKWARD. More of him please!
On the tail door , press the car icon on the top left , and go to door/window , select tail door , and move the dot to 100% open , then it will open full , the hazards are on the rear mirror section ,
Wow, man, what a review.........i was blown away with it, and BTW the hazard is near the sunroof controls if not mistaken........maybe 9 months too late
We would love to buy one and have gone and looked at one but the fact that it doesn't have Android auto or Apple carplay makes it a no go for us. The one they use is rubbish.
I had the same dilemma, I had a punchy ,125kw bmw 1series, I test drove the tiggo 4 and 7, both lacked gumption, jolion I tried test driving but the dealership basically blew me off which says something about the customer service, the jolion is the ugliest one of the them anyway. I test drove this car on a whim and was impressed by the drive, it felt like my bmw, and was punchy. If you like tech, and toys, if you like looks, performance and comfort, get the BAIC.
Really good review and entertaining..I just don't agree with the TRoc dimensioning.. the Baic is much larger. Having driven both I have had first hand experience
Looks like a good car however I feel the fuel economy could have been better. Also having all touch controls including the volume and aircon is not very convenient, I find it quite distracting when driving. Still a great car though for the price.
I reviewed this car 3 weeks ago in a mall....only thing is it's door handles don't close when the vehicle is unlocked....that's a dangerous feature if kids are around the vehicle
The Hazards are at the center top where you open and close the sunroof. And also the tailgate you must set on the screen how high you want it to open, so in this car it was probably set at 80% or somthing.

Jacob is a DJ in 947 FM, and everyone knows he's got a passion for cars! Love to see him does what he loves.
The hazard light switch is on the overhead console. Think aircraft 😂
True, most car journos try to be like J Clarkson and its cringe af.
Watch his BMW XM review 🔥🙌🏽😰
Love this reviewer. We need to see more of him!
I get it. But where Ciro De Siena?
Agreed 💯
Damn. Agreed. He's good
I don't know why but I immediately liked this guy before he even started reviewing....
I think it's also refreshing that sometimes it's Ciro, sometimes it's Ash and now Jacob. Amazing work guys
Agree 100% - this channel just gets better and better. 🙌🏼
He has a refreshing tone....and the review was well done. 👌
Yeah man, lekker to see multiple reviewers. You guys are the best car reviewers in South African in my opinion. Keep shining!
Thank you so much! We really appreciate your support
Loving this new reviewer. I wish to see much more of him in the future!

Lovely Review 🎉 Well Done Jacob. Might just go out and buy the BIAC X55 because of your Review.
Ashley and Ciro you've got competition.
We're all on the same team. But a little inner team competition never hurt right?

This dude is a gr8 reviewer 👌
One of the best reviews I have seen in recent times. Jacob you are awesome.
we need more reviews by this man....great stuff

虽然这不是什么非常好的车，但这样的汽车能让人满意，说明主流汽车公司造的车更好😂

@@matthewmoses3972 这确实是如此，市场也不同，国外买车需要收税，中国买车政府会免税
@@matthewmoses3972 跑题了，主要是我想看看中国车到底好不好，媒体宣传通常会夸大宣传，就像长安汽车…宣传220匹马力的动力，实际只有170匹马力😂只是做一个比喻，长安汽车在中国销量很高，但我不喜欢

One of the best reviews I've seen ! Jacob you're awesome. This car is something else
. Those two front screens are just next level .

I LOVE this guy! This review was good and fun. I enjoyed the video.
First time seeing Jacob on video, so used to hear his voice on the radio. Great job!
I have a BAIC Beijing and it's on the consol on the ceiling where u open the sunroof. Love the car
Reviewers like you make me happy local car reviews are booming. Awesome job G
I'm liking, no. I'm loving Jacob!! PROPER!!

Great on screen presence and personality. You killed it my man.
A great review. A very nice looking suv indeed. Quality looks high. Shame we don't get it in the UK....it would beat my Tucson for sure 😞
I could take this Reviewer for a drive in Baic anywhere. You rock mate..👍🏽
I have been waiting for this review!
Excellent job Jacob! Really enjoyed the style of your review. And I think you've managed to sell the car. I want one!
Jacob absolutely smashed this one 👏👏👏
6:50 legend has it...that he still hasn't found the hazard light switch to this day!
I love the new face and the energy he carries, very capti. What a great review. Hoping to see more of him.
Great review sir, great energy. Looking forward to your next review. Well done.
Awesome to see a new face.... what a fantastic review Jacob, keep it coming 👏 you were detailed and straight to the point but the fuel consumption is too high.
Jacob is good at this car reviewing thing … keep him on Ciro and team 👌🏼
I strongly agree that this guy is a great reviewer, unlike those awkward usual guys who TRY to be funny and end up coming off as LAME and AWKWARD.
More of him please!
loving that energy, very good review Jacob
im already late but the hazard lights are next to the sunroof switch at the top
The extended boot button is excellent remember this is a suv could hit garage door (depending on height)
Love your energy dude, you're fun to watch 👍
I love this review, this car is exciting not only because it a lovely car but also because of the guy reviewing it
This a very interesting car review. Well done mate. Not boring at all.
Great review, my man. A much needed breath of fresh air. Hope to see more of your reviews
Jacob is gifted when it comes to reviewing the cars. He has that thing. I like him so much ❤❤
The emergency lights button is On the roof next to the sunroof controls
What a cool reviewer. Really enjoyed it
Super review, I love the features. Exactly what I am looking for on my next purchase.
The hazard lights are on top next to the sunroof buttons. Great review bro
Hi Mr Jacob. The Hazard lights button is on the roof next to the ambient light button.👍
By the way, great review, we definitely need more of that
Amazing Jacob! Now convince Baic to bring the x35 for those of us who cannot afford the x55😂
Youre a great reviewer! Keep up the good job!
On the tail door , press the car icon on the top left , and go to door/window , select tail door , and move the dot to 100% open , then it will open full , the hazards are on the rear mirror section ,
Nice car. It shares some of it's interior components with Mercedes-Benz
Didn’t realize that Jacob was now reviewing cars - normally hear him on 947! Great review man!
Excellent review, welcome to the family Jacob👊🏾
Dope reviewer. Great job
Beijing vs OMODA🤔
Wow, man, what a review.........i was blown away with it, and BTW the hazard is near the sunroof controls if not mistaken........maybe 9 months too late
So dope to see a new face, lowkey beeeen waiting for this one, nice 👊🏾
New presenter is good. He wants to do the job. Keep him.
Very good review - love your enthusiasm. More please.
i like this guy's energy ! good review
Would like to know more about the car specs and less about the gadgets and stuff, wheel size, fuel tank size, how meny airbags ens...
This guy is AWESOME! Beijing 5 is my next car. THX!
We would love to buy one and have gone and looked at one but the fact that it doesn't have Android auto or Apple carplay makes it a no go for us. The one they use is rubbish.
well done bro! i've been looking for a good review on the x55 as i'm trading in for either this or the Jolion or tiggo 7
I had the same dilemma, I had a punchy ,125kw bmw 1series, I test drove the tiggo 4 and 7, both lacked gumption, jolion I tried test driving but the dealership basically blew me off which says something about the customer service, the jolion is the ugliest one of the them anyway. I test drove this car on a whim and was impressed by the drive, it felt like my bmw, and was punchy. If you like tech, and toys, if you like looks, performance and comfort, get the BAIC.
This reviewer is brilliant. Really hope to see more of him
MORE REVIEWS FROM THIS GUY PLEASE😂😁
Love this car, looks awesome
Proudly listening to your review. The best. Amazing
Really good review and entertaining..I just don't agree with the TRoc dimensioning.. the Baic is much larger. Having driven both I have had first hand experience
great debut my guy. hope to see more of you.
bro this review is on point. It's like u have no personal life problems😅
Great Review!!
Its a good looking suv with the features to back it up.
Been waiting for this!!! Thanks
Looks like a good car however I feel the fuel economy could have been better. Also having all touch controls including the volume and aircon is not very convenient, I find it quite distracting when driving. Still a great car though for the price.
This oke is so cool and funny. We need more videos done by him.
Many thanks keep up the good vibes driven one very nice 🚙
As a warm welcome to the new and awesome reviewer, Jacob, why can't we flood this video with as many likes and comments? I'll start:
🔥🔥🔥
test drove this babe and im sold❤getting myself one soon
Wishing you many happy miles!
I love my car my beijin x55 is amazing
YOUR BIGGEST KENYAN FAN RIGHT HERE, 21/07/2023
Great review 🤝
Please give the whole channel to this guy😅
Chinese are the BEST BEST, they know what people want... They give you the utmost for a nice price... Gooood... We want this
With the boot on the control screen you can set to how fully you want your boot to open options are 50% 75 100%
The reviewer is very good, actually is brilliant 🎉
This reviewer is my favorite
I love BIAC just like Chery.❤
Great review bro. Keep it up.
Well done Mr New guy 🎉
I reviewed this car 3 weeks ago in a mall....only thing is it's door handles don't close when the vehicle is unlocked....that's a dangerous feature if kids are around the vehicle
Lol that hazards button is in the roof. Unique.
Well the Hazards button is by the rear view mirror on top there . I don't know if i'm the first but that's where the hazards are
The only downside of Chinese cars is fuel consumption.
I get 8 to 9l to the 100, better than it's rivals.
The Hazard lights are on the consol middle button
The hazzards are ontop at the roof where normally the sunroof controls would be
Thanks my guy... great review!
The hazard button is with the sunroof buttons in the top😊my t-shirt😂😂
Tailgate height is adjustable from the infotainment. In standard form it does not open 100% of the way.
the hazard button is by the rear view mirror on the roof
nice review bro... the hazard lights are positioned where the sunroof button is supposed to be at. my t-shirt please😂😂
Hazard light switch is on the roof along with reading/courtesy lights.
on the ceiling, by the review mirror is where the hazard lights are
The Hazards are at the center top where you open and close the sunroof. And also the tailgate you must set on the screen how high you want it to open, so in this car it was probably set at 80% or somthing.
