@@Ivan-bg1jp If you are talking about the Toyota's China Joint Venture, there is also a brand called "FAW TOYOTA". But anyway there is no people would reckon that GAC is the Chinese Toyota in China.
A comparo, already? AD, that's hella quick. MG should be the better looking and despite being subjective, looks tbh should be awarded to the GAC. It simply looks and sits better than the former, where fitment is 101% whack. Sure, a proper set of coils or lowering springs will fix that and a better set of wheels, but the GAC already gives you a perfect look without spending more just to achieve that. ... and the fake exhaust tips looks worse on the MG, for me at least. Both are still a bummer why they had to make it fake. Both are great vehicles nonetheless and are very tempting propositions as Chinese compacts, but overall I'd say GAC just because based on experience, their products just feels better in build quality and driving dynamics.
Sir Caco, nag foundation ba kayo on the video? Hindi lang pantay sa leeg! Still a great comparo!! Still looking forward for a Comparo with Hybrid Suzuki Ertiga and its segment!
I prefer the MG GT because of the looks. But, power and speed is the advantage of the Empow and it also looks good. If these sedans sell well in the Philippines then maybe it will entice Geely to bring the Preface Turbo. Now that would be above the Empow when it comes to performance.
I love how the Chinese cars are making the market more competitive, from an MG 5 owner here, the fact that my car is worth only 750k, , I have a touchscreen infotainment, a rear cam, a big frame and a lot of space for a car under the subcompact sedan segment plus it's a CVT and just overall a good looking car is crazy. At that price point I would either be driving a somewhat base model vios/mirage with a lot less features and less stunning looks or maybe a smaller vehicle. Honestly, the future of the car industry in the coming years is gonna be very interesting.
Nah. After those Chinese brands gained foothold sa market, tataas din yan. Well yung geely nagtaas na, but this will challenge other brands na mas magpaganda then you're correct.
That’s just the GB variant of the Empow. It’s not even the top of the line GE yet which has 18 inches wheels, a different grille design, real quad exhausts and the list goes on.
That's the problem though. Even the mid-variant is more expensive than MG GT's top of the line, what more with Empow's top of the line? Though I prefer the overall design of the Empow's top of the line, but the price difference would make you hesitate.
@@WheelHeadd few things to take note though. Even the mid variant of the Empow has ADAS, AEB and Lane keep assist. Also the infotainment system of the MG GT is on the laggy side with no physical buttons or knobs for the AC control. I like both cars, I just want to pick the winner and in my book it is the Empow. But I really do love that Yellow paint job of the MG GT. 🤙
It’s actually kind of weird that Caco gave the win for the MG when it comes to tech and safety features. The only advantage that the GT has with the Empow is the 360 camera. It doesn’t even have ADAS, Lane keep assist or AEB..
Exactly!! 360 camera is not much needed for a sedan since its not that big of a car like and SUV. But ADAS, lane assist and etc those are useful things in city driving esp in expressways
Looking at the rear, it's like Benz (MG) vs Lexus (Gac)...performance wise, I like the sportiness and interior clean lines of the Empow...as well as the torque...so Empow wins ..for me.
That’s the GL variant which won’t released here. The top of the line here is the GE, yes it has the Matte green color but it doesn’t have the full panoramic glass sunroof. What it does have is the partial sunroof found in the GB variant.
When I'm in the city driving, I want it to be more relaxing kinda mode. But I'm on an open road trip, I am also into more sporty mode. Well, not that much but enough to keep my focus while enjoying the scenic views. I'm in between these 2 lovely cars. Therefore, I'd rather get another brand.😢
Nvh, anti pinch, toe to toe speed or on track to finish the deal. Fuel Capacity. Having a Sunroof is a big deal. But nowadays it's just demoted and not a big feature. Sorry to non sunroof cars.😂 AC is not discussed while in emGRand era this is a big deal also. NCAP Review must feature in all turbo and must discuss also.
GAC empow na katunog ay siopao na gustong gusto ni empoy..😊 ang gandang sasakyan tpos ang pangit ng pangalan.. sa kabila ky MG GT ang pinangalan meaning Gran Turismo..pang racing na name.. sana ginawa nyo na lang NFS instead na Empow.. NFS means Need For Speed.. pra match cla ni MG Gran Turismo.. magiging GAC Need For Speed vs MG Gran Turismo.. yan ang dpat.. hay naku mga tsikwa hnd nyo pa ginandahan ng pangalan..😊
MG6 with 164HP/250NMTq is the competitor of Empow and they're in the same category of Civic, Altis, Lancer EX, Elantra, etc. MG GT(it's also called MG5 in other countries) is the predecessor of MG5 which is in the same category of Vios, City, Accent. Empow and GT should not be compared as they're not in the same category. Would it be right to compare Vios to Civic? 🤦🏻♂️

@@WheelHeadd Again,yes they are on the same subcompact sedan category but it doesn't make sense comparing this MG GT to a vios or city.

This channel is simply the country's best car reviewer
I never ever get tired and bored of watching this channel. All the best from Davao!
Nice Review!
I pulled the trigger on the MG GT Sport Turbo in Brighton Blue and loved it!
Im a really a big fan of yours kako. I cant stop watching you. Your such a good speaker. Keep it up!
Using this empow it's such a great car I love it's design and the performance is so smooth and make me feel obsesse with this model❤️
sometimes hindi ako interested sa comparo or sa review, but i still end up watching it because caco is just that damn good at his job lol.
If GAC decides to make Empoy the brand ambassador for the Empow, take my money GAC.
lol
Niyahahaha
bwisit! HAHAHA
and their official food champoy
Berry Corny Norte
Ill go with MG GT. Thanks for the comparo!! Been waiting for this.
good evening sir we have gt sport yellow if you need :)
Love your reviews, greetings from Morocco 💛
Both are amazing cars, leaps and bounds ahead of the oldie carmakers 👍
obvious chinese influencer comment
we need an Onitsuka Tiger shoe collection vlog at this point from Sir Caco
My money is on the GAC.
They say it's the Chinese Toyota.
So reliability-wise that's my guy right there.
As a Chinese I never heard that GAC is Chinese Toyota 😰😰

Empow really hits with it's sport theme. look at those crimson seatbelts

Just watched this Comparo now, if GAC will bring the Empow R revealed at Shanghai Auto Show then I may buy it!

Mas trip ko lang talaga looks ng MG GT. I've been looking at it since 2020 pa yata
GAC - Japanese brands is 👍
Daihatsu and Japanese brands from 🇮🇩🇹🇭 is 😂
Thanks jack for just smiling at the back of the camera😂😂😂😂 coco just plan it from the beggining
I don’t understand how they’re so different
The empow in UAE has real exhaust tips and it sounds insane too
Pansin ko lang binagay nya ung suot nya sa cars yellow shoe for mg gt and gray short for empow and white tshirt for autodeal
Na try nyo na po ba mag apply ng SANGLA ORCR sa Global Dominion Financing, Inc.?
still thinking for the mg gt :)

Can you pls review the MG 7?
Here in the Middle East, MG GT LUX has 173 horses & 250nM of Torque.
Yeah yeah, I like the MG better. But where is the last scene located?
Ty for the review now i will go to honda city 2023 💪🏻
MG GT Sport vs GAC Empow GE?
Hello sir, Sana ma feature ang bagong Ford Territory
The much awaited! 😊
Empow looks so damn classy beside GT. Both are a beast tho.
you should've compared with the Empow S line to be fair
GAC just came out the 2.0T with 8AT. It is fast and powerful. Slower than Mercedes A45 but faster than golf GT
Sadly they don't have here in america 😕

Curiously, I'd ask how the AC was for both cars. Nice and cold especially with how traffic is?
This was a fun comparo btw!
Non issue for most china cars super cold

@Guntanks In Space to many to list man.service no good and it didn't improved either like what they say. If they did only for a short period of time
Chevrolet's distributor or Peugeot's distributor, which one is better? 😄
The Empow interior has a very Chinatown vibe while the MG GT is leaning on the BGC vibe.
the empow is audish while the GT looks like a Merc c class
Lots of love for GT 💓
To me its seems more like a strong but tamed beast vs a wild and unruly beast.
Sir review naman ng LC300 or the LC Prado. Ung mga di masyado common sa kalsada.
Heated side mirrors? 😅
Can i work with you guys?
on Engine...best to race them quartermile...or at least compare their power to weight
do a drag race
Mas nagagandahan ko MG GT. Pass nga lang sa color yellow.😅
The talkative caco getting speechless by himself is a rarity on the internet 😂😂😂
Jack has more taste than you this time around, Caco. 😝
If Hyundai sold their n-line variants here that would be nice
well as last time saw a auto speed error ( cannot slow down) so I am not fully trust the electronics in the car ~!
Empow for me
MG 💛💛💛
FWD or RWD?
فيديو مفيد
شكراااااا ياكابتن
raize and coolray comparo next... hehehehehe!
mas gusto proportion ng empow, yung front fascia mukhang audi sedan. yung mg gt medyo mukhang pagong yung proportion
Those fake exhaust tips though
Ang ganda nung mg gt parang mercedez benz
The MG doesn’t even have ADAS or lane keep assist.
Joke: which one requires more biogesis and losartan after 3 years of ownership😅
Elegant and fastback!. Japanese cars today don't impress me.
mg for me coz of its pedigree
MG looks like Mercedes and GAC looks Like Golf or Hyundai N line Design
nice car
Hello Caco. Do not show the mineral bottle label unless they sponsor on this video
