    This car is a masterpiece in design. They haven't compromised too much in terms of practicality. As a European and a car-enthousiast I would probably choose this over the German legacy. I like that they went minimalistic, but didn't go too far like Tesla. Like some others have said this company might become a case-study in the future as being the first internationally recognized "premium" Chinese brand.

    China have been breaking all sorts of barriers in EV development. They have been so progressive in creating new vehicles at every end of the market that I believe they will be the key to a global revolution in EV ownership. Many legacy companies are still making compliance and compromise EVs. Some companies are focussing on particular markets. EV only companies are pushing vehicles in particular consumer slots. But, as a joined up strategy, China is far ahead of everyone as they are tackling every level of EV distribution. They are rolling out public transport vehicles, performance vehicles, cheap vehicles, luxury vehicles, city vehicles, utility vehicles and mostly at prices that can be rivalled by few others - certainly not legacy companies. They also lead on infrastructure. And all this against the background of them also pushing out lots of old tech. Just about anywhere else in the world if you see fossil tech being promoted you'll see renewable tech being hampered. But China on the whole seems to be pressing forward with renewable tech regardless of opposing concerns. Once China start rolling out their product to the West the legacy manufacturers in particular are going to have to up their game or leave the field.

      Yeah because it's not like electricity prices somehow follow the price of oil and gas does it.
      At certain times of day right now, where i live, the price of electricity is so high that it is actually more expensive per kilometer than a diesel car, even with the diesel also being more expensive.
      Offcourse it is cheaper at night but we have had nights where electricity was also very high because of no wind, and offcoruse no solar power, so if you have a car that you must charge every day, it can be very expensive to buy electricity today for your EV as well.

      25% Actual electricity price
      75% State tax on electricity.
      It's the same with fuel...About 60% of the price of a liter of petrol is taxes, so if the price of a liter of petrol goes up 10 US cents, the pump price will increast with 25 cents.
      So while gas prices gets higher and higher, the state makes more money as well as the ones selling the oil.
      Also for example when electricity prices are higher the state makes more money, because they have a support for wind and solar....Basically they are promised a minimum price for their electricity, so if the sale price is lower, the state funds the difference, but now, electricity prices are high, so they make more money on the tax i pay, AND they save money, because they dont have to pay the windmill and solar owners any money because they get more than the minimum for their electricity right now.
      It IS really a win-win for the state...And we, the consumers are being taken royally up the behind.
      But as said...it's expensive to pamper ones voters, so they need all the money they can to "buy" them.
      An example of that...When they decided that they did actually want to help people that were the victim of very high prices on natural gas, for heating their house, they decided that only the poor would be helped a bit..In reality that means that those who pay the least taxes now get the most money from the government, which is essentially raising my tax percentage compared to the socalled poor people.

    Although not mentioned in the review, the audio sound system is the best in any production vehicle. The ET7’s audio system comes standard with 23 speakers and a total output of 1000W. The four primary channels use a 3-way speaker array which features dedicated tweeter, mid-tone and bass driver, a subwoofer plus four overhead speakers. Combining the leading active tuning algorithm and Dolby Atmos’ excellent detail and clarity, the ET7 provides an immersive listening experience beyond users’ expectation.

      Once you could forgive the way Tesla's looked, because it was what made people recognise them as Tesla's but now there is just so many cars that looks way more modern than the Tesla.
      Tesla's only redeeming feature is their "self drive" stuff, but honestly, their lead on that field is diminishing for every day that goes by, and their FSD which they have sold lots of cars with the promise for this in the future, is still not anywhere near completion.

    Where I live, in the Aussie country, I will need a higher profile tyre, something like 70 profile. This is due to our broken road surfaces and potholes.

    Energy consumption: the average speed is 95 km / h, and the consumption is 18.1kw · h. model s is 17.3kw · H
    Perceptual recognition: at the speed of 7km / h, stationary vehicles with a distance of 192 meters can be recognized during the day and 194 meters at night. Model 3 under the same test conditions, stationary vehicles with a distance of 88 meters can be recognized during the day, vehicles with a distance of 53 meters can only be recognized by using close-range lights at night, and stationary vehicles with a distance of 88 meters can be recognized by using long-range lights Note: the driver's display of et7 only displays targets within 200 meters. Even if the lidar can recognize targets more than 200 meters, they will not be displayed on the display.
    Surprise 1: at night, smoke is set behind stationary vehicles. Et7 can recognize stationary vehicles with a distance of 187 meters. Model 3 can only recognize 22 meters of stationary vehicles.
    Surprise 2: at night, the vehicle headlights are sealed with adhesive tape without any lights. Et7 can rely on lidar to drive forward at 30km / h until it stops about 3M away from the vehicle in front. (Note: the test speed of 30km / h is set in consideration of the driver's safety. Without lights, the driver can't see the vehicle in front.)

    Great facial recognition security feature, it should be extended by making the trunk secured also.
