      It was not a gift. He had try to buy the HongQi for a few years now and since Malaysia is a friendly nation, they made a 1 of 1 a unique one for him when he became the king of Malaysia to celebrate his new title. The Sultan paid for it

    Who knows that the interior of a vehicle is purple? Because in ancient China, purple was the most expensive color, the largest ministers wore purple clothes, and the Forbidden City also became a purple palace. The most common color of Taoist priests' clothing in China's traditional religion Taoism is purple. If a Taoist priest dies and is cremated, the color of the flame is purple, which means that the priest's practice is at the highest level.

    • @tren133
      @tren133 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +18

      Purple has been the most expensive color in many ancient civilizations. It was the color of the Roman emperors, for instance. However it is merely the 2nd highest color historically in China. Ministers wore purple, but the emperor wore gold, and it was a capital offense for regular folks to wear either color (certainly for wearing gold, not 100% sure about the purple), and the highest color for the ordinary people was red in China.

      Indeed. You need to be able to operate any functions needed while driving without having to take your eyes off the road. May not matter much in say, the US, but doing 250 kph on German Autobahns the screen operated functions become a leathal distraction.
      Why then are especially German manufacturers eliminating all but a handful of buttons?

      Buttons and switches are umpteen times more expensive that some software mods. I really hope that this trend will be stopped by legislation.

      If you are not careful, they will make physical buttons the mechanical watches of buttons. It will cost you $20,000 to own a mechanical watch.
      It's a plot I tell you. Enjoy your physical buttons as much as you can, because there is no telling if they will make it a "premium" feature in future like they say over here. Scam.

    TEMU MaybachWhole presentation of the car is nuts. L5 is quite an intimidating sedan. I do think the chrome accents is bordering on the tacky side, it just doesn't give that opulent vibe.. less metal and more natural materials would give it a classier feel. Golden Sunflower concept is kind of like the 2004 Maybach Exelero version 2 China.

    • @pixelmasque
      @pixelmasque 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The metal elements are a big part of honouring the original design which was China's first car or first statesman car, that's why the vehicle and whole idea is considered special, hence the vehicle has a bit of an old classic look, it was a time of great significance in China's manufacturing growth, and the re-emergence of the design now is a statement to China's confidence and position in global manufacturing and global influence as a world leader, a sentimental beckoning of the success over struggle to come from nothing to where they are today, such opulence was rare in china for 200 years, after the fall of the dynasties, this case is more a symbolic gesture and recognition of China's global status back at the elite level,

      Not even Rolls-Royce cars have 800hp. These are purely gasoline powered cars with V6 and V8 engines. If these were EVs it would be possible, anyway hongqi is transitioning towards EVs. Hongqi EVs that start from 40k USD price range have 600hp to 700hp

    In China, the Hongqi L5 series represents power and high social status, while Rolls-Royce only represents wealth! If they are driving on the same road, Rolls-Royce may have to consider giving way to the Hongqi L5 series! This is the ideology of many Chinese people!
