Beetle on the outside, American 50’s diner on the inside.
A more apt description was never made. 😁
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so true
Haha so accurate!
The form of the back lights, but in the front lights. 🙄Unbelievable stolen from the Beetle.
Oriental fantasy of the west. Imagine a girl with lolita fashion driving it.
A breath of fresh air in a global market where everything is so serious. I think this would sell well.
however,a looooot china men dont like this car,becaose in the carshop,she cost 200K yuan(maybe30K Dollars),that a lot money
@@luandero6394 那可不一定..20万也不算贵
Boring are the colors of newer cars... silver white black.
Thats it.
My kitchen has more colors.
Take a look at Japanese cars. They have been doing this retro look for years. In the UK only the PT crusier and the crossfire, plus the VW Beetle are the few cars that hold the retro vibe. Maybe, the Fiat 500, ok the Mini....otherwise somewhat Euro boxes, or fake 4x4s
nope, it sells less than hundreds per month because everyone knows it's a knockoff Beetle. and most importantly it's not cheap. what a joke
Who cares it is designed for women and etc, I want one! I would drive this thing for sure! It is so cute, yet pretty, and the interior is just so nice!
As a man confident in my masculinity, I would definitely drive one of these. I love the retro look and the embrace of the reality that not all cars are sports cars. Comfort and visibility over pretence of speed. Not sure about the pink interior though.
For a petite guy like me, this is perfect! I’m in love! They took the classic Beetle and brought it into the 21st Century. I’m impressed the Chinese designers pulled it off. It turned out the death of the New Beetle in 2019 was greatly exaggerated.
I mean, they're not wrong.
The Beetle died when VW tried to "modernize" or make it too futuristic.
This is a much better version of the Beetle that many people would love and oddly and funny enough, were made by the Chinese of all people.
if somebody asked me to butcher a vw beetle, I’d end up with something like that
canadian man in his 50,s here and I would buy one right now !
I know this is the version tailored for women, but by God, I love it. I love the design, in and out, and the colors, and the fact that the technology looks both retro and understated. I’d actually love to own one of these.
I'm a Male and agree. The punk cat is totally out of proportion. I'll take the female version.
Just not the pink and baby blue.....change that and the Chinese writing and good to go.
@@phillipbridge5009 Chinese writing lol
I don’t care if this is designed for women or not, but I dig it a lot! I’d drive it and I’d enjoy cruising up and down the promenade in it. FWIW, I like the idea of goddess mode! Seems ideal for cruising with just one hand on the wheel.
We need the Ora Cats in Europe now!
No 🙈
They’d get sued into oblivion lmao.
Ora is there now! 🎉
Funky cat is on sale now in the uk.
I'm a straight man and would love to buy this car. It looks gorgeous
I know this car is gear more for women, but I would really like to have one myself.
I think this car is gorgeous. VW's refresh of the beetle was just off, and this one nails the look. I'd be tempted if it was available in a RHD version.
Yes a gay looking EV built by the Chinese is a dream ! Or a nightmare ?
@@curtisducati Yeah, you're right. The real question is why VW didn't do this considering the huge popularity of the original. I care less about the gay looks than the fact that the Chinese ripped off the look.
I think VW would block it with lawyers outside China
@@curtisducati Didn't know cars had sexualities? Besides, what's wrong with being gay?
@@curtisducati
It looks less gay but more feminine.
The difference between "gay" and "feminine" is that a lot of "gay" things tend to be try-hards in being feminine or just overly obnoxious.
This just looks incredibly girly which is not a bad thing especially since this was indeed marketed for women.
Hell, if given the chance and money, I'd definitely buy one for my wife and drive it around myself at times as well simply because of how fckknnn cute this damned thing is.
Rumor has it, the fanny pack was also designed to lure females to Wheelsboy
😂💯
Tends to have the opposite effect, but we appreciate your optimism haha
Not only females!
I love this - it looks like a car that would be in a retro-futuristic video game. I'd buy one - and I'm no lady!
I quite like the wheels, suitably retro but still nice and modern looking.
This interior with dark blue or green instead of pink please - looks stunning!
Honestly, people want VW to make a car like this, but they refuse to make it. So no one can blame the customers for choosing to buy a Chinese copy of something we wish existed.
If I had the money, I would definitely buy the Punk Cat.
China did what VW should have done with the Beetle.
The problem is it is a China car 😳
I thought the punk cat was cool, but I think I’m in love with the Ballet Cat
That looks gorgeous. Volkswagen should have brought it. I could imagine there is a market in Europe.
This is one of the most beautiful car I've ever seen.
You must have low standards
@@sybsygstgstsgysg5330 bro you should respect the aesthetic of other people😄
The Interior of the car looks great as well..
❤❤I adore this car, I wish it was available to buy in Europe/UK ❤❤
This vehicle looks from the outside so much more like the original VW Beetle than the New Beetle of the early 2000's.
A smaller, budget oriented version with the same external shape would be a hit and really become the spiritual successor of the classic venerable beetle.
3:25 I love how serious this woman is looking at this car
I'm sure she is sending that video to her husband, saying "If you love me, buy me this."
They need to come out with a cabriolet version! Would be cool. 👍
Love it or hate it, at least they tried. Most car companies these days DGAF and do crazy things like touch-controller-air-vents (?!?), who needs that?
Looks pretty well figured out, design-wise.
We'll see what kind of cars these people actually make! :)
Im a guy and even I would like to drive this car. The interior is amazing.
This car revived what Italians done with Lancia Thesis , retro design fitted in a modern car .
Unfortunately it never worked for Lancia, the Thesis was a flop.
IM A LADY AND I DEFINITELY LOVE THAT CAR
I love it and I would be very interested if it was available in right hand drive in England
Ironic that the Chinese did what VW couldn't, modernise the Beetle and still make it look like a Beetle. Not a restyled Mk4 Golf.
I'll assume it won't be selling in the uk..?
So fresh! So original! I've never seen anything like it.......oh wait..VW
Another fab quick view!
Looks absolutely wonderful !
I like the way they have a TAMPON vase instead of a FLOWER vase on the dashboard!
They ought to consider a two door version of that car.
The only thing that is off and weird is the faux crystal, everything else looks amazingly beautiful.
Adorable. Shame they can’t sell these in the US.
Why cant they sell them in USA?
@@DanielGarfold such a car would have to be imported. To protect US companies, you can’t import anything newer than 25 years old. Companies like Toyota and Honda are US companies because not only do they have factories here, but corporate regional offices as well. The vehicle doesn’t have to be built here, they just need to have some sort of domestic stronghold. That said, if you can form a partnership with another company, you can import modern vehicles. Think 20th century Fiat, Daewoo, and such. You would have to have a large dealership network if you wanted to say sell a bunch of new British cars in the 60s, and even then, things got complicated, like they were driving the cars off the boat and onto the trains, when legally they were never allowed to be driven until sold to the consumer. …lots of little obnoxious regulations to prevent people from really ever wanting to do business here in the US… …look at the Suburu Brat. Why does it have those ridiculous seats in the back? Well, because it’s not a truck, it’s a 4 seater car. During the oil crisis, people wanted fuel efficient compact cars, but the US didn’t make any, so they would partner up with Japanese manufactures, and rebadge their cars as domestics. As long as the final assembly is in the US, it’s ok.
But what it all comes down to is that a company would need to import a ton of these cars and get special permission for the US and state government to do so. So if you’re an individual enthusiast, you just have to wait 25 years, then import, and that whole process is still obnoxious.
I can't get my eyes off this charming car 🔥... So classic so modern
It's not a copyright issue - possibly a design patent.
Absolutely love the name.
did you already review the Tank 300 (offroad or City Edition)? Would appreciate if you can share your detail review about it. Thanks.
IVE BEEN WAITI'N FOR DIS ONE
TURN IT UPP
The world's first factory-Bedazzled car, with the largest Bedazzle in history. Much pioneer...
The door for the charging plug opens very cool but it will break if you open the front door while charging. Shame. Cool car, love to see something different on the roads
i think its beautiful except for the headlights ang rear lights.....just make them round...or oval like he punk cat.....this ballet cat has the best body shape among the cats
5:56 - can you even open the door when the charge port is open or is it just a weird angle?
very cool car
I love love love this car!
It's nice to see a car that has a friendly face. ❤
Agreed! If you like this, you'll probably love the Wuling Bingo and Baojun Yep (links below)

Waiting for Changan lumin corn, really!
I had to google that, I thought it was some sort of snack lol
It looks like a smaller version of the Nissan Pao
This would sell GREAT in EU.
I would love this too bad the copyright will not allow it.
Tesla start copy that shit
@@1985toyotacamry At least Ora Good Cat may still be viable. It's got the same drive train and is being sold in the UK. Also pretty fun looking and small and pratical for any tight roads.
@@1985toyotacamry what copyright ? it was designed by former Porsche designer.
@@johnsmith-cw3wo and do you think that Volkswagen will let a car that is similar to the Beetle will sold on their terf without consequences? Yes I love the car. However Volkswagen will sue this car maker to hell for copyright infringement if they sold it in the EU or the North America. Hence I said that.
your pronunciation of nvshen is impressive!
Chinese are genius in design
I m very much interested in the Funk Cat.
And the Dead cat.
@@Supernaut2000
That's when it's run over by a Hellcat lol
wow it's looks amazing 😍
Great video
I'd love to have a goddess drive mode in my car.
Dude thats a cool interior
Another man saying, I'd love this car. Just love the 1950s retro interior.
I need one of these
I'd have zeeero problems daily-ing that thing! 😍
VW: We are ceasing production of the Beetle.
Ora: Fine, we'll do it ourselves!
This particular model is just missing the cat ears on the roof lol
The good cat was designed by a former Porsche designer, hence the resemblance of a Porsche. I wonder if it’s the same designer who penned this.
I saw that in our local car show, and posted it in my car show visit video. good to see a detailed review of this. at least it has 4 doors :D
Euuuuu queroooooo ❤
Where is the Ora Bettle with rounded headlights the Cat model? Looks cool i Saw in the begining? Nice
Great Design
I would personally LOVE to see a smaller two door version of this (sized more like an actual VW bug, around 4 meters in length) with less luxury gimmicks and a more affordable price range (like the Ora R1 Black Cat’s purpose). Of course, it should have more “neutral” trim that would appeal to both female and male drivers.
It could have the round headlights from the Punk Cat and the Ballet Cat taillights . It would look like a late-60s early-70s bug. It doesn’t even need outrageous performance, it would be cool as a car focused on just taking you from A to B in style and an electric drive.
But hey, that’s just me (a proud vintage Beetle owner) speaking .
Love them.
I am a male and I would love to buy it
Is there a charge port on both sides? There seems to be a door on each side of the car front
Yes, there are charging ports on both sides, fast charging port and slow charging port
When available in USA?
When China does a better job of a retro-beetle than VW themselves.
Was there ever the “ full “ review video? The test drive part.
Looks so cute
This car is from the new OAR rebranding right? Certainly looks like this from the video start. 😅
It’s a Bolkswagen Veetle. Completely different.
🤣🤣
The shape is great, it's looked should apply to men, women and the more gender fluid people we admit to having in the UK and Europe. Marketing a car at a gender is very 1940's but I suppose, so are the looks. If it gets a crazy price tag like the £30,000 sticker on a good cat / funky car in the UK, sales will be niche. At the right price, an ORA could be worth a gamble. For VW money, you can get a VW. I would love to see this on the UK roads. It needs to be cheaper than an MG for me to get one on my drive. Hopefully it will encourage someone to make and ID Bug.
Awesome design! I hope they offer a Sodium Solid State battery option. Lithium is too dangerous for fires.
when are you posting a test drive :(
I NEED ITTTT
Any news on the MG4 Mulan? 0-100 in 3.8 seconds.
I believe the proper unveil with the public is at Chongqing motorshow on the 25th June
I hope they sell this car and the Punk Cat in the Philippines. The Punk Cat so cool.
I NEED IT
They should have cleaned the mess in the "frunk" and make room for some storage (cables etc.), but otherwise, I really do like it! What does VW say to this?
VW Beetle + Fiat 500 (Seat 600) + girly colors = Ora Ballet
I'm a MAN {he/him}, and I wouldn't mind one of these. Though I wouldn't like a pink interior.
This is the Canon EOS M of cars. That camera was designed and marketed specifically to women in Asian markets; they ignored that camera and the company lost millions. Hope this launch goes a little better lol
How can you buy the car
I like the lights
Crash rating ?
Any crash ratings on Chinese cars?
It s a fine lookin car...even for men who like cutesy stuff
One of the biggest missed opportunities for VW….
I think I want one... ❤
I must admit to being pleasantly surprised by the generally positive comments here regarding this car. There has been a lot of negativity in other places because a Chinese manufacturer had the audacity to try and replicate an iconic and classic car. I think this has been well executed, with a few questionable elements. The headlights, crystal trim and the info screens are very poorly executed. The Ora Punk Cat (Boys version) retains the crystal, but has round headlights and a more integrated dashboard, which makes for a generally nicer look.
I am male. I love women and this car.
If they've never had hairdresser cars in China before ...well they have now.
The proportions of this thing make it obvious why VW never did a 4 door Beetle of
any generation.
Scarab Beetle.
Hate the faux crystal. Love all the chrome!
