I'm really jealous of all these amazing sedans coming out in China while my country is becoming so obsessed with crossovers and SUVs that car manufacturers aren't bothering even launching their sedans here.
Hoping to see more insights on battery swapping utilization in China, it is just such a completely different approach to eradicating range anxiety than offerings in any other markets.
Hilarious that it began this year as one of the most anticipated and complete packages on the market, yet was almost completely eclipsed by the SU7. Maybe it will find more appreciation on the international market, before the SU7 begins selling overseas...
Great recap. With so much stuff coming out of China, we needed the recap as well. Looking forward to the top 5 SUV video you are no doubt going to follow up with.
Great video Ethan. I'll be joining you in April for the Wheelsboy Shanghai tour. I thought Zeekr might be prominent in your list. I'm working out a list of my favorites cars to drive in April. See you then. Ken.
The fact Canada put a 100% tariff on Chinese BEV imports is disgusting and counter productive to so many things including cleaning up the air, especially when you see this list of all the cars you should be able to buy but can't...
Except the Mona I agree with the list. Especially when coming to the Z9 GT. I want to add that the Zeeker 007 also qualify for a sedan. My personal request is a list of all the Chinese 4 wheels drive best electric car for off road.
Yes it looks very ugly, but there is a reason Xpeng can barely keep up with demand for the Mona. The value proposition is just too strong for that one. No other car at that equivalent 17k USD price range can offer its level of software (including optional assisted driving tech), efficency, and it is also a more useful liftback to boot.
I hope Denza z9 comes to Australia...and I hope I can afford it! For me, it's the best package in terms of design...it has a proper interior and not a screen slapped onto a bench and the exterior is nice too!
Can you guys make a video where you talk about the 5 or 10 quickest 0-100 kmh or even 1/4 mile (maybe you can find on chinese youtube the sources) Chinese cars and suvs, please? I'd love that video. Thanks, happy new year
Wheelsboy must be the best channel which covers most of good looking good performing Chinese EVs. If this channel will not hit 1 million subscribers at the end of 2025, I will be really pissed off 😒
Well I want to thank you for replying to my instagram message. Because of your suggestion I ordered the Xioami su7 and it should arrive to Dubai in 2 days. Looking forward next year to your review of the YU7.
I agree. Since I got my SU7 it’s the best car under 50k usd money can buy. With amazing tech and they have very frequent OTA and the car is getting better and better everyday
Hi, You can say that I was once one of thosr sceptics when I saw a Chinese car, I would turn away, lets be honest some were lousy, some were like a barge and others down right copycats, but fast forward 2023-2024 and Im loving what I see. Really, but just one thing, do these cars come in right hand drive form, because if they do and if those Chinese companies can ship them here I would gladly love to buy one especially that Xiaomi SU7, I love it.
reminds me of the negative content of the SU7 during its launch. but no, Xiaomi pulled it off really well, way beyond my expectations. It is quite amazing and unexpected for a smartphone company which makes sells all sorts of products.
I just can't keep up with the Chinese car market... The only Chinese sedan I ever driven isn't in your list. The BYD Seal, which is a great car. It has a big LFP pack for good range, twin motor design for crazy acceleration and it's readily available here in Brazil.
Reclining fold-flat SofTex®-trimmed rear seats in the bZ4X deliver unparalleled flexibility, making room for more cargo or creating a spacious, comfortable seating area, reflecting Toyota’s innovation in optimizing convenience and luxury.
After looking at these selected Chinese EV, the future of traditional gasoline car makers are pretty grim. However, the outlook of a smooth transition into green energy vehicles is better than ever.
In the context of this list, yes. Even if I had reviewed the updated ET7, I still would have chosen the M03. It's a more significant and interesting model than an updated version of a sedan that came out two years ago.
@JamAlBorey like fully electric doors or massage seats or back monitors also electric back seats of sunshade that can make it dark or bright also the range are pretty similar
@timothyi6492 The S9 has 700 km range, a luxurious interior with a rear cinema, and many more features, This could've entered the list, but Ethan didn't drive it...
Even people who know next to nothing about Chinese cars like me, see that there is something quite essential missing from this Top 5 : build quality and reliability criteria. If you take those into account where does the the over-hyped Xiaomi SU7 stand ?
This list is really cool, and proves that there are a lot of interesting choices. And there is a lot that we don't have here in Europe. Some cars are downright ugly or weird, as good as they may be. I really don't like the looks of the Denza Z9GT, despite its performance and gimmicks. Or even the Xpeng P7+, it's just meh for me. I agree on the Lynk&Co Z10 though, its design is really appealing. We only have the Lynk & Co 01 here in The Netherlands, of which the proportions are just not right. The Z10: beautiful. The Xiaomi SU7 is a good number one here. Although the design may not be perfect, everything else is just really good. I want to drive one, once... Prices are hard to compare though. The MG4 Xpower for instance is sold in China from 19000 euros (converted from yuan), while the same car costs almost 42000 euros here in The Netherlands... A BYD Qin L would be nice here, but 16000 USD would become at least 35000 euros. Keep up making these fun and informative videos in 2025!
@Trellmewo Not only tariffs, depending on the brand. The Netherlands adds VAT (China prices are without VAT), and adds some more local taxes. Before tariffs, Chinese EVs were already almost twice as expensive as they are in China.
@@darkknight8139 Well, policy ask the chinese company can not sell cheaper than local‘s (for example like VW, the id3 is almost doubled price in germany) so *for example* like 15k car is 30k+15k price in ur area
1. The ONVO L60 is an SUV and this is a list of sedans. 2. I didn’t drive any NIO sedans this year and I clearly stated that this was a list of cars that I drove and reviewed in 2024. So hmmm to you, my friend.
The reason is simply that no new NIO sedan models came out in 2024 apart from the updated ET7, and I rarely review updated models because most people don't care to watch a video about a car they've already seen.
Whaaaaaa? No avatr 12? Absolute blasphemy! Just kidding, I do agree with the list, but I'd personally probably rearrange the order a tad bit. P.S, Bernie and Ahmed are turning in their beds right now!
I wouldn't buy Su-7 which the team only assembled in 3 years, there is a journey to achieve good car with good safty, performance and last - good looking...
As Chinese, I can tell you that Avatar is good everywhere, except for driving, the driving experience is just... Lack of confidence😢 they need to change.
@@alexj2869 Driving experience, in China, we like soft suspension, but Avatar 11/12 suspension is too soft even lead it uncomfortable, the new cheaper Avatar 07 are doing better then these two high end car, I think they will change it on next generation.

A Top 5 SUV video is incoming! I also think that a top 5 for different budgets is a good idea!
Great channel. Well presented and narrated. Hope to get a Chinese EV for my next car.
Great recap. With so much stuff coming out of China, we needed the recap as well. Looking forward to the top 5 SUV video you are no doubt going to follow up with.
Great video, was waiting for your Chinese cars roundup.
For me the Xiaomi SU7 is the one, you and Kyle Connor from out of spec gave it high prises,🤟🤩🤟
Great video Ethan. I'll be joining you in April for the Wheelsboy Shanghai tour. I thought Zeekr might be prominent in your list. I'm working out a list of my favorites cars to drive in April. See you then.

Informative and enjoyable to watch as always. I dare to predict next year's no.1 sedan of 2025: XM SU7 Ultra ;-)
Cheers buddy.
Let’s hope I get to drive it!
I have the Xpeng G6, I like. smooth quiet fast... and very useful AI functions.
I hope Denza z9 comes to Australia...and I hope I can afford it! For me, it's the best package in terms of design...it has a proper interior and not a screen slapped onto a bench and the exterior is nice too!
yeah it's a very sexy sedan

did you figure out the english version?
Yes I had it installed in china at a cost before shipping. Or else I would not have purchased the car
@@samirashid9245 what you mean you pay for it? its free and we all can set our su7 to english. if thes made you pay for that you got tricked mate.
wow you're really big fans about Xiaomi，you actually know about the existence of yu7
@@LindemanRichard i think we all know cause bought the SU7.
I love your videos. They are fun and informative. I missed one car in the the top 5 or at least the honorable mentions, being the Zeekr 007.
These make the world top 5, easily 🎉
I agree. Since I got my SU7 it’s the best car under 50k usd money can buy. With amazing tech and they have very frequent OTA and the car is getting better and better everyday
That’s exactly how you should feel about your car! You’re lucky to have such a great EV.
@ thanks mate!
Those cars will be good powered by Internal Combustion Engines
Why did the BYD seal not make the list?
My favourite sedan reviews this year are the Wuling Xing Guang, Xiaomi SU7 and BYD Qin L
Doug Demuro JUST uploaded the SU7 review. USA is blind with chinese cars. They're loosing a lot.
Blind and losing is what the USA is all about these days...
Great review
The su7 rear light bar is horribly ugly which is a shame because the rest of the car looks great

Why didn't the Luxeed S7 make the list?
Cool list but what about the Zeekr 007?

Well, it's not new in 2024
Surprised the zeekr 007 didn't even get mentioned. Was really looking forward to it arriving in our market
Didn’t drive it this year!
@Wheelsboy maybe you'll drive the wagon version straight away this year. The zeekr 007 wagon is one of my most anticipated evs in 2025
Same here, though I think the Z10 wagon will be even better looking!

Please do a top 5 Chinese ADAS/Autonomous vehicles!
After looking at these selected Chinese EV, the future of traditional gasoline car makers are pretty grim. However, the outlook of a smooth transition into green energy vehicles is better than ever.
I am a massive fan of Chinese EV but unfortunately here in Australia not many sedan is available. I want to get Zeekr 001 and Denza Z9 GT.
Thanks Eth
God I love this channel
How come Zeekr 007 is not on the list?
Where is the NIO ET9? I have seen a bunch of international reviewers giving it top marks.
Glad to hear you're exercising your pelvic floor 😆
Review aion hyper ht please
I wonder what the 50ieth annual edition of the Wheelsboy's Chinese electric sedans TOP5 will look like.
Antigravity hoover car with rocket engines like in 5th element movie
Only 4K people noticing Wheelboy's top 5 pick? That's a hiccup.
Wait what does the xpeng Mona 003 help you exercise?
Very surprised you have never mentioned ET7. Have you not driven that before??
I reviewed it in 2022, and this is a list of cars I drove and reviewed in 2024. This year they released an updated version, but we didn’t drive it.
@ would you say ET7 was worse than M03?
In the context of this list, yes. Even if I had reviewed the updated ET7, I still would have chosen the M03. It's a more significant and interesting model than an updated version of a sedan that came out two years ago.
@ wow! A car that cost more than 4x of M03 is worse? Those who’re still buying ET7 are stupid!!!
I prefer zeekr 001 new version to the su7 because it's cheaper and I didn't lose any huge option
also zeekr has more options
Which options?
@JamAlBorey like fully electric doors or massage seats or back monitors also electric back seats of sunshade that can make it dark or bright also the range are pretty similar
Luxeed/Avatr sedans? they are well designed and luxurious?
Stelato S9 is also good, The Luxeed S7 is quite nice but there are better cars..
They don't meet the driven criteria, but they might make next year's list.
@timothyi6492 The S9 has 700 km range, a luxurious interior with a rear cinema, and many more features, This could've entered the list, but Ethan didn't drive it...
Interesting list of top cars 2024. Audio a bit muted.
Agree
Great idea Xpeng did lol but it's fine
My fav are the link & co z10 / Denza z9 GT/Sedan / U7 / Xpeng z7 ? Love them all 😏 can't afford any tho 😔damn 😩

Even people who know next to nothing about Chinese cars like me, see that there is something quite essential missing from this Top 5 : build quality and reliability criteria. If you take those into account where does the the over-hyped Xiaomi SU7 stand ?
Nio cars didn't make the cut! What is the general consensus of Nio sedans?
How could you prefer the XPeng Mona M03 over the P7+!
Where are ET5, ET5 Touring, ET7 and ONVO?
NIO is by far the best EV manufacturer out there! They should be top of this list!
Wow this is cool....
Nio/Onvo 👍
Agree.
Top 10 will be proper since there are simply too many great models in China!
Denza Z9 sedan is the best. Closely followed by Huawei Stelato S9. Not a big fan of Xiaomi.
This list is really cool, and proves that there are a lot of interesting choices. And there is a lot that we don't have here in Europe.
