  • Top Gear does a review on the first Chinese car ever sold in Australia and they are going to take this car to the test. This video ends with 2011 Nissan GTR doing the power lap.
    ENGINE: 1.3-litre four cylinder
    OUTPUT: 62kW/122Nm (83.7PS)
    ECONOMY: 6.7litres/100km(14.9km/L, 42mpg)
    EMISSIONS: 254g/km LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!
    Personal Opinion:
    I'm open minded in cars so I won't pick on Chinese cars. But they need something much better than this if they want to succeed. If you watch Jeremy Clarkson's car years, the Japanese swamped the world with cheap and reliable cars equipped with luxuries that others charge you extra for. They brought the US and UK motor industry to its feet to say the least. GM tried to compete Japanese cars on price by cutting corners, they failed. Land Rover had to move up market because the Toyota Land Cruiser was so damn reliable. Recently the Koreans are took that reliability factor to the next level with 7 year warranty and now they employ good designs and quality on their cars to make sure they have some sort to USP to brag about other than price and reliability that you also get in other brands.
    The only problem for the Chinese is, what USP can they offer? Cheap is nothing when you can pick a better car in the used car dealer. Let alone with the lack of luxury and safety features it has.

    Actually owned a Chery (QQ) for 6 years and it was TERRIBLE. The total cost of the maintenance through the ownership was probably equivalent to a new mini hatchback. Sold it and bought a Japanese Toyota hatchback instead and it was the best decision of my life.

And yet things go worse is that he cant claim insurance for this model of car here in my country then he later on bought a Proton Satria not a bad car but at least it doesnt break down like the Chevy does and it is 4 years for the Proton and now still running.

    Just several decades ago, Japanese and Korean cars were described as "fake Germany car" "Fake American car" or simply crap. It won't be easy for China to catch up. China did not have lots of experiences in building cars, and as a matter of fact most Chinese won't buy a low-quality Chinese car. But Chinese car maker certainly has lots of potential, Chinese can build reliable rockets, manned spacecarft, they cannot make high-quality cars?

    From what I know, Chinese-made cars are lot more reliable than they appear to be. I once had this chat with a cab driver in China, he told me the average kms cabs do is 1,000,000, with very minimum maintains whatsoever. But I admit, I would not buy a J1 either. Chinese car makers still have a long way to go.
