- You came to sell your car in this heavy rain? Couldn't you wait until the rain let up a bit? I brought out the biggest umbrella from our company. This is another brand-new Xiaomi SU7 Four-Wheel Drive Max version, just driven over ten kilometers since getting the license plates. You tell me, what are these people thinking? They just picked up the car and then rush to sell it, even in pouring rain. Do you not want to drive it for even a minute?

Car is not a washing machine - it's better to test drive before commiting to buy. Otherwise you might have an unpleasant experience
if you're a brainwashed chinese consumer, you'll see the hype of this car and not request a test drive. Also you can expect the sellers to act in a way to avoid the customer to test drive. You know how easily they can do this.
Absolutely! It blew me away, that one dude getting rid of his because he didn't realize his pretty car comes with ongoing expenditures 😂
The FOMO and viral marketing was strong, with this car.

From zero to 100 kph acceleration in just 2 seconds? Did that first lady driver buy an F1 car to drive on a highway?
the tesla model s plaid can do 0-60 under 2. most ev's can achieve stupid acceleration numbers due to them being able to generate max torque at zero rpm.
That's 2 metric seconds...like 4 regular ones.😅😅😅
declared 2.8 but we all know how "optimistic" chineese products can be, anyways, even 3.5 seconds is crazy fast anyways
I was wondering the same thing.
I didn't know Xiaomi was a F1 car maker, let alone an EV F1 car.😳
@@richreicher2679lmao!
China can only copy the exterior looks. Performance wise is another story.
of course.
The wheels may be spinning fast, especially an EV. but to get a good feeling is extremely complex. She's feeling nauseous because the car is unbalanced
They can copy the internals too... why not? But there is a cultural impetus to cut corners wherever possible... tgis is why knockoffs usually aren't as nice.
In THIS case, the issue is also cultural - that copycat mentality means everyone wants the singular nost trendy item... until that one is superceded by a newer even cooler trend item... and then everyone wants that one, and nobody wants the previous one. I'd have to write a whole chapter to tease apart all the reasons, but... this was THE car to have when everyone ordered it... but by the time people receive it, it's lost some lustre.

Xiaomi copying Porsche’s exterior design but not Porsche’s engineering marvel.
@@GizzyDillespeewith the Xiaomi’s price, it’s impossible to copy the internals. For sure they can if they want to lose money.
0-100 in 2 seconds, and then 0% battery after 50 kilometers.
You wouldn't even make it that far. The wheels would fall off if you tried to drive it that hard.
Or the suspensions would break when you leave the showroom
People want "the best, the most" without even understanding what that actually means, in this case. This mental illness is in the West too... it's a symptom of newly acquired affluence in a weaponized-marketing culture. (No, China isn't communist🤣 - look at wealth inequality and the lack of workers' rights, and you'll see).

In the 70s, Japan entered the car market. Did they copy Ferrari and made a Toyota T40 supercar? No. They built their experience and reputation as they positioned and ultimatly stole most of the market.
The 1973 Toyota Celica was a blatant copy of the mustang. But they did stop doing it.
Well japan entered the car market earlier in Mexico in the late 50's and their cars were a copy of the British cars
Yeah except with all the turbos and blown engines nowadays, and Lexus now having recalls and QC problems, well I'm sure they're doing this to nerf themselves for the sake of the competition?
@@SeektheLordsface the bar was lowered enough and marketing is good enough to convince consumers and focus seducing the dumbest consumers is generating more profits than making good cars like they used to.

Anyone buying Made-in-China EV is a grossly irresponsible person, who does not care a bit about the hardly extinguishable fire he/she may trigger one day sooner rather than later, exposing his neighbours to horrendous fire hazard. Mechanical failure like this is nothing compared with the risk of endangering human lives.
Anyone buying Chinese pisses me off, tbh.

Communism is the reason for China's downfall. It's in the mail, I hope it hurts. Then again, after all that famine, are people even capable of free will in China? You know, famine ruins your mind, and your offspring for a long time. Some, even argue that it never recovers. That would make sense, why they just lay down and take it. Similar to Russia.

It is irresponsible for car manufacturers to produce cars with a 0-60 in 2 seconds and not beef up suspension systems and put proper brakes on these EVs. They need to focus on producing dependable, safe EVs, not hyped up super cars. I've seen video of the suspension systems and couldn't believe how cheap and compromised it was with thin metal parts, etc that can snap. If Chinese imports enter the U.S.A. I will not be buying one. I haven't seen one video yet about a Chinese brand other than Chinese Teslas and other similar set ups. Sad for the Chinese people to be ripped off like this.
Please explain the Cybertruck to me then. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA. Racist fool.
The SU7 has very thin brake pads and the stress of track racing quickly wears then out to nothing.
Woman driver sense something not right of this car and made the right choice to sell right away.
If she had any sense at all, she would have bought a gas powered car and not a 3rd rate EV made by a company that makes cell phones.
Those are some feeble ass air bags lol.
They actually have race tracks in China? Nobody in China knows how to drive....
Who buys a car and have to worry about paying rent after. Who! Who! That is crazy.
Get one cheap enough you can upgrade parts yourself. "Never buy a new car" wait 10 months.
XIAOME CAR IS '''SHIT ''' CAR ?????
It has every thing except quality .
Quality is everything. Xiaomi SU7 has nothing.
4:35 - guy making 1000$/month buys 30k car cause he likes the phone. These phones must be really awesome...
So the guy bought it and chose having a car over a place to live and food. He deserves what he got.
An electric vehicle may have very low mileage but has already been in a minor collision or hit a pothole in the road turning the battery into a time bomb.
from the mouth of an actual car dealer the battery is a consumable and it's value considered lost as soon as you buy an EV thus the massive depreciation I checked a few ev battery pack replacement cost and they are usually around 33% of the car new price...that's the money you instantly burn when you sign for the car

That blogger in the race track that crashed into the failure, found out later that the brake pads were completely WORN Out!. This is very very scary for a new car that is supposed to have way less that 10% even after 10 hot lapses!. This means the brake were substandard in quality and is horrific because if users drive at 100kph on the highway and the brakes fails, they might not survive!. These cars surely did not go through proper road regulations tests. If they did, it will fail drastically. So he very aware, your life is at stake if you ride this car!!! 😮

I drove a BYD for 2 weeks. Nice outside and inside and big screen…lots of colorful bling bling.
But…I live in Germany and NO THANKS we have our own quality cars. I am not sure about china/Chinese cars quality and battery. See a lot burning on the internet.
China is stealing everything and manipulating the market. I hate that behavior.
I love cabriolets SO MY SECOND CAR WAS IS AND WILL BE A MAZDA MIATA MX5. I love that foreign fun car ❤
For this money you can get a very well maintained used BMW or Audi. If reliability and driving safety is important to you, simply choose one of those brands. At least, they will not let you down and they will not suddenly catch fire either.
LMFAO I wouldn't buy a used BMW or Audi.
Buying Chinese is just throwing money away. How stupid!
@@justicedemocrat9357 Sales figures and safety statistics speak a very clear language. Audi and BWM are among the most reliable and most safe cars...worldwide. They play in a completely different league than Chinese cars.
You dontbuy audi or bmw for reliability. You buy lexus
@@MagalaxeurDETER Of course you can do that too...I do not know anything about Lexus...but even a Toyota Corolla is better than this Chinese junk.
The resale value once it’s out of warranty determines how good a car really is.
Two weeks ago a family friend offered to sell us his SU7 Max for the same price as he bought it (43000USD) after driving it for only 1800 km. He said it's dangerously too fast, but otherwise, it's a great car. Before I could even respond (after 2 days) he told me he had already sold it: "These are in such high demand I had 3 buyers competing. The waiting list for a new one is more than half a year, and June sales will be more than 10000 cars. I don't quite understand why people buy them, you could kill yourself in it, it's just way too fast. My 10-year-old Panamera was better, more predictable and slower. Also much more expensive in use. A good thing is I did not lose any money in these deals."
I heard today that a bunch of guys working for Tencent did not get their work contracts renewed and he was one of them, did not show up at work. So, I think that was the real reason for selling the car. Now he probably gets a used BYD EV for 5000USD and is happier with the 0-100 in 10-second acceleration. I hope he sends his new e-mail address soon.
This is proof that if BYD and Geely wants to conquer the all-important North American market, they will need their vehicles meet US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and also get high scores in NHTSA and IIHS crash testing. That's not a cheap proposition, to say the least.
When brake pad area is to small the pad material overheats and the brake pads become useless when applied.......
If you are going to track your car make sure you install TRACK pads! That's just common sense. Sure they will squeal some on the road but they will perform well on the track.
Are track pads even an option for electric vehicles? I thought that they generally used regenerative braking to help charge the battery and I would imagine that requires special pads. Even if it doesn’t require special pads, finding a performance broke manufacturer that makes sport pads for this car is probably impossible
@@richardbossman9875 Look at the maker of the calipers. I'm pretty sure there are track pads available for this car.
A bank should be able to say if you can afford a new car or not. Credit check much? Overpsending is a universal problem. New credit card? Buy all the things!
Makes me wonder how functional their weapons are.😂
Xiaomi cars are trash, i saw them break apart while driving and the seller just said, its airvents hahahaha
quite astonishing they are powering through with an extra model and even an SUV. A Japanese or European brand experiencing such problems with their first models would postpone the following ones while fixing the issues or risk irreperable damage to the brand's reputation. Well not in China if you have good CCP connections, merit and skill are irrelevant!
Xpeng and Yangwang cannot be considered as Chinese cars then...
Any chinese brand product is fuckin trash bro 🤣🤣🤣
So effectively the Chinese are impulsive buyers, even when it comes to the second most expensive purchase in an ordinary person's life. It makes one wonder what happens when buying real estate, etc.
At least the air bags went off, that’s a bonus in a Chinese car.😅
Well it crashed without catching on fire. So thats an improvement.
Korean cars are said to be "running coffins," while Chinese cars are known around the world as "running funeral parlours (they suddenly catch fire, get locked inside, burn to bones, and so on)."
EV cars are just like the copy products that the Chinese are famous for: sneakers, bags, watches, electronics, and cell phones are all copies of foreign companies and look just like the real thing on the outside. The exterior of EVs are designed based on EU and Japanese cars, and they look luxurious, but they have no track record in safety, suspension, chassis, and so on. High-speed trains, which were built by stealing Japan's Shinkansen, are OK when built according to the blueprints, but there is no consideration for safety or comfort. China does not have the technology to make high-quality bearings for both cars and trains, so the wheels break down within a few years.
I can attest that Korean companies are light years ahead of Chinese car companies. You can’t give 10 year/ 100,000 mile warranties on all new vehicles if they are likely to use them or you’d go broke. I had a Hyundai for awhile and I had no issues with it despite driving like an ass at times.
China needs to build friendly relations with Japan and learn from them. Quantity and quality. Maybe we’ll achieve something amazing 😂
The Xiaomi second model looks like a sedan, not an SUV. SUVs tend to be built on truck frames and sit higher on the road than cars.
Is that price before or after it catches fire ?
Did it ever occur to this woman that maybe she should just not press down on the accelerator pedal so hard? LOL
She bought a car that was the racing spec/founders edition, and, speculatively likely there was an electrical short fault that gave the impression of nausea. Similar to the person who had a heart attack in his EV car when slowing down at the lights due to a wiring problem in the car.
It's similar to another complaint on a similar xiaomi SU7 video that there's a ground loop fault.
Considering she 'just' picked it up from the store, the CS at Xiaomi likely had 'words' with her about the problem, so she took it back to the store to get rid of it.
Surely the dealers/manufacturers would give a 14 or 30 day buy-back satisfaction scheme?
Xiaomi's motto is; "there's an idiot born every minute". It's an exterior rip-off of a Porche with the working parts of an Vauxhall Firenza.
Never let a smartphone company cook a car
*"Xiaomi SU7 is a blatant design ripoff of the Porsche Taycan"* Unsurprisingly, plenty of owners have had issues with these as well.
I say many more Chinese people should be buying these Chinese cars.
Thank you buddy
So even electric cars don't have any software setting that you could use to make it accelerate slower? Not even an ECO-setting? It just allways 100% full blast? I doubt it.
Xiaomi car is very very badly done, a very very bad parody of the Tesla, or better, the Xpeng P7i...
The first part of clip was a positive marketing to imply that car has good acceleration and the lady could not handle the speed. Hence the lady was trying to sell the car.
Seems to be a very dangerous car. Give me free i wouldn’t want it to save my and other people life .
The issue I've heard is that the batteries cause a weird energy field due to the number and size in such a compact space, plus lack of any type of insulation or enhanced barrier to protect drivers from the effects of the batteries.
This is why so many owners are reporting serve nausea, vomiting and headaches.
Once the driver's were no longer in the car the sickness goes away. One of the many reasons so many ppl are selling their Xiaomi's.
Of course Xiaomi denies the fact ppl are getting ill and blame the driver's for already having poor health and these ppl are faking for money and sympathy.
The worst part is no one knows the damage the energy field emitted by all these EV batteries will have on the human body in the long term. Speaking that this is a Chinese made car and this is China the truth will be completely covered up to protect the image of the company as Xiaomi is subsidized by the CCP and hailed as one of the biggest, best, and cutting edge companies.
More likely poor insulation that is causing a voltage leak of the battery wiring or regenerative braking wiring through the chassis via induction/ thin metal conduits.
It's easily testable by having a "Leak test' in hand while parked and while driving/braking, to check the doors and door handles, panels, steering wheel and gear-stick, etc for any voltage leak
The umbrella from a table lol come on man your killing me here
They just buy to flip, riding a hype bubble, hustlers.
Is China capable of making anything of good quality? I think not!
They obviously just threw a generic brake system on there like something from a 2000s Civic.
That car is more like a death trap….
At least they don't catch on fire after the crash, that's different from all the other brands I think
Errr... she needs to be easy with her lead foot. Accelerator pedal is not an on/off switch!
Why does anyone want to go from 0 the 100 in two seconds?
Xiaomi promoted as fastest sport car…. But this is not cater for high speed racing! U will die faster with driving this EV.
What an idiot for buying a car that he cannot afford the payment, the insurance, and having to live on instant noodles. LOL.
The female client picked all the top choices? Yeah totally not the salesman pressuring and now shaming her.
It’s mixer of Tesla and Porsche 😂😂 exterior look
you're dealing with a dealership...wtf do you expect? they are trying to portray the illusion of a lack of demand to lower the price...
Just avoid chinese EV.

No, Xpeng is the best brand in the global world!

0 to 100 Kmph in ONLY 2 seconds? The best car to overrun anyone just happening to be in front of the car, like someone of your own family. Is This not evil? Who on earth will need such a sprinty car? To get on time to school, or the job, or the gym? nope? Or is it that you have a girl friend who threatens to leave you if you do not arrive on time? But what about pedestrians crossing the street, like elders who cannot run, or school children crossing the street?
The case of the Xiaomi brake failure very easily explained. With higher acceleration of EV you are going to hit higher speeds on the shorter runs on the track putting the brakes under more stress than a conventional vehicle. Combine this with a significant weight increase for EVs (Porsche 911 would be around 800kgs lighter) than the Xiaomi. and you are heading for a disaster unless you are fitting high performance brakes and discs. The driver in this case should have noticed the brakes failing and backed off.
Not sure about this car but most EVs have regenerative braking which drastically reduces usage of brakes.
They’re not use to high quality products, they have no base to compare to.
@@FriedChairs great point. but looks like at some point regenerative braking has it's limitation!
Second-hand are on the way to Europe.
These car's brakes aren't made for tracks. The same happened with the last Tesla. A fast car needs serious braking power.

Never let China design electronic cars.
That makes no sense. Are you going to petition the Chinese government to only allow foreign cars in China 😂😂😂
BYD is bad enough, but why in the world would you buy a car made by Xiaomi, a second-rate smartphone company with a history of IP issues (as in blatantly violating GPL requirements in their software). Just because it looks vaguely like a Porsche crossed with a Tesla, doesn’t mean it has either company’s engineering domain expertise or product investment.
i don't even buy it if someone offer me one for $200

I like Xiaomi, I have bought 2 generations of their phones and they've been great... But I wouldn't buy a first gen car, no chance! Lol... Looks nice though.
Besides, I don't want an electric car at all...
Don't get me wrong here, Xiaomi cars looks like some cheap and literal embodiment of "Made In China" but having reasons like "It's too fast" or "I could not afford food" sounds more than silly...
The car does look good .

How do you buy a car that you can't afford? Can't they do the math ahead of time? I just don't get it. It's nice if you buy a vehicle and after you've got it, you don't even feel that you've spent any money. What a crazy customer! I bought a nice car at 24 years old and it was all money from investing. I never had to physically lift a finger to buy it.. So that's the best way, not even working for it.
Stocks or what?
A likely cause of the brake system failure catastrophically is the vacuum system for the power brake failed. When the power brake system does not have vacuum for brake assist, no amount of force applied by the driver will stop the car expecially when it is going at track speeds!
This is a very rare type of failure even for cars here in the US but does occur on older cars!
Vaccum assisted breaks are not a thing in modern EVs, and even so, when breaking power assis fails, breaks usually still works, you just need to push harder. This failure described in the video seems so different, it looks more like break by wire went totally wrong - pedal felt normally but computer said "no no, no breaking now, go faster". Horrible, i would never drive this car seening this accident.
@@mach3reachedThe brakes are still operated via a hydraulic system! There are no 'electric' brakes!
The hydraulic system will still need to be amplified via a viacuum booster or some other types of boost assist. Without it, you can press on it with both feel and it will not make much dfference at track speeds they were talking about!
I had a vacuum line on my car that failed and during city driving with speeds less than 35mph, it was amazing how much pressure I had to put on to the brake pedal and the effectiveness of the brakes without vacuum boost assist.
So I'd say there is still a vacuum booster in these battery cars as you cannot stop a 4000 lb vehicle without it. To add any other types of hydraulic boost assist would be much more complex and costlier!
@@mach3reached
In your normal car, go ahead and disconnect the vacuum line from your engine manifold that leads to one side of your vacuum booster attached to the master cylinder. Start your car and go down your driveway and try to stop. Come back and tell us what you find and if you can just 'push a little harder'!
