- Meet the Human Horizons HiPhi Z!
It’s an all-new luxury car that’s come straight from China, and it’s absolutely loaded with tech. What’s more, it looks unlike any car we’ve seen before! But is it more style over substance?
Well when it comes to the design, this is easily one of the most eye-catching cars we’ve ever driven! The outside of the car is covered in thousands of LED lights, that make it possible to show images & text at either the front, side, or rear of the car! It also comes with elements of purple trim which help it to stand out even more, and the front of the car is covered in a number of aggressively-styled vents and aero bits. If anything, it’s giving us some GT-R vibes!
Step inside and the luxury vibes are clear to see. There are soft-touch materials throughout, and the seats are super comfortable and come with massage functions. There’s also a massive infotainment screen up front, which is used to control nearly everything in this car. But thankfully, it’s super fast and comes with great graphics. It even adjusts itself to be pointing at the driver depending on the position of your seat!
So while the car is packed full of tech, it’s a much simpler story when it comes to the engine. The HiPhi Z comes with just one battery and motor combo - dual electric motors and a 120kWh battery which are good for 672hp and 820Nm along with a range of up to 438 miles.
So it’s oh-so eye-catching, and so is the price! The HiPhi Z starts from around £90,000. But given it looks so unique, is it clearly worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

I was surprised how much I liked this car. Drove well and just had this WOW factor to the design.
Wohoo nice car Mat
Yeah, guaranteed not to burst into flames.. I would rather walk than drive anything Chinese.
@@freshnotfresh7571Sakura Haruno also loves this car, Matt.
@@SubjectiveFunnythe car costed $9.000.000 when it on sale.
@@SubjectiveFunny many cars are made in china tho
How overstyled do you want your car to be? Yes
Looks like a car from Detroit Become Human 🤖
This looks like Chinese music sounds.
More please 😆
The car can seriously be better without the stupid led panel in the doors. the ones in front and back are super cool.
And the wheel covers keeps whobbling like crazy, its triggering my adhd.
Did u see the squat it made when it hard accelerate!! They gotta fine tune the real geometry to make it antisquat!
They should remove the window regulator switches to analog, its just over the top!
Yet it somehow looks awesome
The beeping sound probably comes from the safety system which hasn't been calibrated for the UK road yet as it thinks you are driving on the wrong side of the road.
Yep. I see the similarities between this car on Carwow, to J-Coupe, one of the 36 cars in Burnout Dominator.
THANK YOU!! I was going crazy trying to figure out what it could have been. That makes sense!
I can’t believe the carwow crew couldn’t figure it out, plus they even attributed the beeping as a flaw😢
Yeah, you might be right that the safety systems weren't calibrated for right-hand drive countries.
however the beeping stopped at one point so its probably not from that
Since it’s not sold in the UK, I’d imagine the beeping is just the lane departure system warning you that you’re a lunatic driving on the wrong side of the road.
just turn the lidar 180 degrees and the problem is solved, oh wait, what if it would still beep to tell you are driving upsidedown? XD
The color mix is also ugly
Pedestrian warning sound effect, automatically shut down when exceeding 30KM/H
I'm surpirsed everytime I see this car on the streets of Shanghai. Catches everyones attention and looks super wide, massive and techy!
Yeah I came to know this brand when I saw a massive car next to me one day and asked my wife to search it out.
@@davidwang6791 the asking your wife part was really necessary for the story.
I've only seen one in Shanghai this summer and it certainly stands out in the crowd!
I saw 1 or 2 in jing’an but didn’t know the brand. Honestly, too much styling for my taste. Prefer avatar.
@@slammerw3 The one I saw was in Jing'an too
I love how goofy & unique it is. 9/10. It’s as if a GT-R and I-Pace had a kid that ran away from home at 18, got three PhDs in China, and now runs a multimillion $ corp from home 3 days /wk so it has time for a semi-pro gaming career
I was saying the same thing the front look like a Nissan design and the back a jaguar.
I was saying the same thing,, i mean, literally the same thing down to every words
@@kejorafall😂😂
Took the words right out of my mouth
Took the words right out of my thesaurus
I've been following the current generation of chinese cars, and boy am I impressed. From the very advanced but still raw like HiPhi, to the absolutely ready Nio, to the scandi chic Zeeker, to the volume king BYD and the delightful ocean line. I'm VERY impressed with what China can do.
It’s all because of the deadly competition in Chinese car market…it’s relentless…
The only complain i seem to have with modern chinese cars, they are so damn awful at naming and brands.
They need something short but easy to remember, like honda civic, etc. SOmehow china always likes to create bazillion different names and companies for similar or the same products (their electric scooters, example). Otherwise i love the design and they went leaps and are actually interesting and awesome cars now.
Dont forget lynk and co by geely and volvo
Thanks to extremely picky Chinese when it comes to cars. Only champions stay, and they should be able to do well in the global market
@@fukuoka33Culture is sort of only for gas cars tho, we Chinese already missed that period since when the culture was cooking in Europe and US, most of Chinese back then couldn’t even afford enough protein like meat and fish. If you show my mother in Shanghai a Ferrari Testrossa today, she would think it’s absolutely gorgeous and will really love it. But if you show her the first gen Tesla model S, she would consider it out dated despite the fact that the Testrossa came way way before the first model S. Tech evolves fast, if you put them in cars then it would soon be old without the culture even forming. On the contrary, if you put no tech in the cabin, it would be timeless for sure, like for example a Bugatti, but it just wouldn’t be practical as a car which you would drive to the market in city Traffic where you probably want the car to drive itself.
In fact, with this machine, you can manually adjust the direction of the air flows :) On the climate settings screen, you need to move the drawn air flows :) You literally press the air flow on the screen and pull it where you want it to blow.
I was surprised they couldn't figure that one out, even if it is pretty obvious, given the manufacturer copied so much UI design from Tesla.
ux designer here, yep they shouldve put arrow signs to let people know they can touch it.
But that's still an abysmal design though... (Granted, I am happy you shared that at least it can do it). But still. Literally having to go into an infotainment menu to adjust the direction of the air vents is one of the worst ideas (relative to the subject at hand) I've ever heard of. If not being able to adjust them at all is the baseline at 0/10, then having to use a menu system is maybe at best a 1.5/10; if the needed menu is within 1 or 2 button presses.
This car might be the ultimate flex machine. It gets more looks than a supercar.
Seems like this car apparently glitched out.
it's hideous
It looks like a gta car
Cause your eyes can’t focus lol
For the price I'd rather have a Lotus Emira.
I saw one of this in a car wash in China couple months ago, it's really a eye catcher and looks more futuristic in real life.
looks like any other car from the last 2 years or so
Which one@@jsnjsshshsu8248

@@XKS99 nope
@@jsnjsshshsu8248 Judging from the public response you're clearly wrong.
I love how friendly Mat is with the strangers he meets on the streets
I really liked the part were all the people around were having a look at the car 😂
Is that a GT-R Shooting Brake Cyberpunk 2077 ☠️🤯
I’m really surprised how far Chinese manufacturers have gone ahead.. wow 🤩
Next cars for testing - Zeekr 001, Lixiang L7(8,9). Thanks
The only thing that keeps people from buying chinese cars is the stupid names. They look and sound like GTA cars. I guess its not too hard to create a car name such as : Blackbird, CRT (Chinese Republic Technologies), Firefly or something else ... just fucking normal brand names and nbot shit like Lixiang, Zeekr or Hiphi where you already know its from china.
its called li auto L7
yes please, Zeeker 001 is a looker
Zeekr 001 FR, right?
That bonging noise is probably it telling you the key isn’t charging 😂
Or that the charging port is not closed.
@@ionelumthe charging port of this car is almost never closed down.
Or that you are driving on the wrong side of the road ...
Or your lane positioning is really bad, driving with your right wheels in the opposing lane most of the time
I know you're joking but you're probably right. The key needs a holder of some sort to stop it moving around and stay in the optimal charging position.
According to a Toyota Times interview with the Japanese company’s newly established BEV Factory’s president, Takero Kato, he was shocked during a business trip to China.
“For the first time, I came face to face with the competitiveness of Chinese components,” Kato said. “In China, they were not simply learning and applying technologies, but also rapidly transforming manufacturing.”
“Laying eyes on equipment that I had never seen in Japan and their state-of-the-art manufacturing, I was struck by a sense of crisis - ’We’re in trouble!’ At the same time, I began to think that I would like to spend the rest of my career in China,” he added.
I love the design. I wish more car makers would go for bold futuristic designs.
Designer: how many design elements do you want?
Marketing: yes.
Naruto Uzumaki approves this car. 😂
its a chinese bro, they steal everyones design and said "lets have all of them" and some
@@lordbuckethead2022 What a poor boy, live in your dreams😂
@@chaojidan you and the chinese cant take a joke even if i lit one in your face 😂🤣😂🤣
Although I'm not personally a big fan of the design, it's hard to argue with the social proof of the design. If people are guessing that it's worth over 2x the actual price and whenever you drive it, you get swarmed by people, it's a pretty decent value proposition off of design alone. Even hypercars don't get that much attention.
That being said, the glitches suck pretty hard, but the specs seem decent. Hopefully, they get it all sorted by the release date in 2025.
NO.
@@24k__J Sounds like a reply from a 4 year old after they learn their first few words. Have you got your diapers changed today mate?
this is a Chinese spec car, the beeping caused by a safety measure system, but it didn't recognize UK road.
It is already launched in 2021. Hardware glitch would only be addressed in a facelift
@@jasonw98 You can't be certain.
The next generation of cars will be extreme, with more participants to the auto industry.
Building an engine, a transmission, mechanical drive trains etc have made the 20th century auto industry so hard to enter.
But now, its almost as easy as making a phone. A phone with an electric moto.
The most complex thing is the battery and e-motor. Everything else is style, software and workmanship.
I like it 👌🏾
Omg I never thought Chinese could make a car this good. They seemed to have nailed everything Design, Technology, Drive, Handling. Only thing to concern about it is the reliability.
Other traditional auto manufacturers would really have to up the game to stay competitive.
£90k for all that tech! That's pretty good value compared to some of the legacy manufacturers.
It’s expensive.
@@Lerppunen It's really not considering the amount of stuff they crammed into it
i like it but its actually expensive for Chinese cars
Remember that Top Gear episode about the Chinese car market and how shonky they were 25 years ago? This is unbelievable progress. It just looks like a concept car. Incredible that this is available to buy!! Nice one Matt! Great scoop.
we've come a long way. Plus the EV market is arguably the most competitive one in the world.
to this day I don't understand why all other car manufacturers are so AFRAID to release a concept-looking car... All their actual models turn out to be nothing like their concepts
@@Sartherismost probably because of the cost.
@@robinlyu7386 I am talking about design only. So many models had such a cool looking concept, that would not be so difficult to make, yet the production version were always so.... tame
@@Sartheris Ioniq 5 is like a concept car.
this is the first video i’ve seen from this channel and i absolutely LOVE the host’s personality! energetic and funny but not annoying, and it’s nice how you address cool AND uncool things about the car!
the car itself is real cool too, definitely something i’d wanna drive in cyberpunk 2077 lol
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a car design that made me do a double take. Cool stuff!
I actually love the design, as out there and different as it is. It's nice to see cars that look different from the dreadfully monotonous SUV copycat vibe every company goes for, and a lot of hatchbacks have the same shape.
This is out there, and very well polished. I hope more companies go down this path of unique creations. Cars at the moment are dreadfully similar with each other, and all some shade of black/white/grey.
It looks beautiful like a crossover between a sedan and a hatchback hate the cabin and the black strips down the side though
I wholeheartedly agree
You go off topic with color. But the jaguar i-pace and acura zdx both have this shape.
"people in Range Rovers are generally... lovely! they are lovely!" lmao
The displaying of messages is very useful. Too often someone is behind me flashing his lights when theres a Speed limit. Showing him "fuck off. The limit is 50" would be very satisfying
🤣
I got high... and i started watching videos. I came across this one and *the first thing that came to mind was:* Waw! That video is one big advertisement!
You speak like a salesman, you even wobble the console to show the potential buyers that this car is not your regular "chinese"
... but when you mentioned the vegan leather and how no animals were harmed and how it STILL FEELS like luxury leather.... THAT GOT ME SOLD!
... you're squeezing it to the max, i LOVE IT !
this is a Chinese spec car, the beeping caused by a safety measure system, but it didn't recognize UK road. same thing with the charing port, it is not a CCS port, so they don't want you to play with it.
btw, this car has a dancing mode, it is pity you didn't show it in the video.
Ironically GB/T charging port is far superior to CCS. Sad SAE never figured out how to do their own version of Singular Port head without silly addons.
Can't imagine all the attentions Matt gets everyday with all his cool car
I was in moscow a few months back, and saw this on the roads.. absolute turned my head 180 degreed
I think those people blaming the Chinese companies will eventually get used to things like this. It’s nice, but little too expensive
Aesthetically nice looking car, it's definitely different, and people have been asking for different... I think people will bash the car just on the sole reason that it's Chinese; but personally, i don't care, if a car is an all round good car, i couldn't care less were it comes from; which brings me to were i will bash the car, they should fix the minor issues like the charging stuff.
and also major issues like safety, similar to tesla.
Well said
Pp in the west are affected by fake news propaganda. All mainstream brands have factories in China so basically China has the most experienced automotive engineers and workers.
I somewhat bash it because there are loads of new companies, like this, like Jetour, like BYD, and others, all popping out cars like crazy. Which, is very interesting, especially how much of a competition they are becoming to Tesla. - But I haven't seen the long term of these cars or the brand, And enough Chinese car companies are also going bankrupt at similar rates. - lets not forget that this hiphi is a company that started making cars in late 2020, early 2021.. you're essentially buying from a "start up" without the pedigree or proven reliability/support.
And I'd like to know that when I purchase a car, I can have support for the next 8-10 years. But purchasing a lesser known Chinese brand in Europe comes with it's own challenges as they are still quite exclusive. Like dealers, maintenance, support. It's similar to buying a Ford F150 Raptor in Europe.. you'd struggle to find support, maintenance, tyres, etc. because it is such an uncommon car.
And, besides that, I've been in a few Chinese brands, and they do often feel quite cheap compared to European brands. Materials, button feel, operating system etc.
I'd like to see more of these quirky Chinese cars on Carwow please.
I loved this review.I agree with you Matt.If the Chinese company fix those issues, this is one of the best car in the market.it’s thousand times better than tesla.
You have no idea…this car wasn't even on the list of top sells EV in China, the competition of EV here can be called deadly and extrem.
honestly, i havent seen such a beautiful car in long long time, so stylish and so sporty, so cool and so futuristic, im just sad because i wish it was a car with a petrol engine not an electric engine
Im surprised it got such a positive reception given how different it looks lmao, but I do like the look of it myself & the interior is actually really nice
Lol, what a contradiction
What a surprise indeed.
Im worried about the quality. Yes interior and exterior have a very good design but the fact the quality looks quite bad for $130k US. Like the wheels are just plastic covers and interior materials look cheap and all the electronics see to have problems. For $130k US I can get a 2022 Porsche Tycan Turbo! Which is 10 times better quality and the design is even better in my opinion and not as gimicky!
@@matttim5095 You're comparing a used car to a new car, and one company that had hundreds of years of producing sports cars
Good reception where? It looks horrible overweight and not worth 20k... 90k base 😂😂😂
Well, it's a real "Look At Me" car alright.
Hell ya!
This car is totally badass🔥🔥🔥
headlights with messages. roadrage will never be the same!

This is seriously one of the first electric cars I could see myself driving. It looks super cool !!
Just consider throwing some cool wrap on it so that all the car's details stand out. Sick !!
That thing would look awesome with lip spoilers, skirts, different wheels or just go with a full bodykit and a mental spoiler. I'm surprised more cars haven't done what this has with the light displays and projectors, although the fuzz would probably spoil the fun.
They could have spread the features and details of this car across three models, but instead they shoved it all into one. It looks like a running shoe, or something, I kinda like it. It's nice to see Chinese carmakers experimenting with different designs, and not being constrained by unimaginative suits that don't like change because it's "risky".
Tbh I love the design of the car. It’s like a guilty pleasure..
i see some "mecha" factor in the design, and I like it
That interior!! 😍🤌🏾
I've never wanted an EV so bad. This is so cool and looks really nice to drive :)
too expensive

Saw this car when I went back to China to visit my family lmao. Absolutely stunned at the design. Thought it was some kind of concept car on test lol. Anyways, great review! Hoping they can get some of these Down Under.
My 2014 Nissan hatchback has an even better door opening system. You just pull on the outside handle and it opens! Pull on the inside handle and it closes! Amazing!
This is an ideal example of how technology doesn't always make things simpler
Imagine being three hours late for work because, "the new car I just got's battery-less key refuses to charge and open the door"

Cool car. Hope that its reliability is as good as its design.
This car is bloody bonkers. Yeah, looks kinda fiddly and could use a bit of refinement and whatnot, but really looks like it's got some fun potential. I humbly request a long term, (maybe a week), review. Seems like a car that could use a bit of a "how the f does this work" period, but I'd suspect that there may be quite a lot of things that would come out after living with it for a bit. Super cool car.
This is the second HiPhi, the first called HiPhi X is slighty even MORE bonkers. This Z is meant to be a high performance grand touring sedan. They just released the less bonkers HiPhi Y in China, which is cheaper and meant to be a more mainstream family crossover, like a crazy looking Model Y Performance. It's been getting some pretty decent reviews as well, and will serve as the volume model for the brand.
Even a Lamborghini & Ferrari Owner will feel ignored in front of that! 😂😂😂
When you take your foot of the accelerator when it's in brake regen mode the brake lights go on automatically and that's without using the brake pedal. Great review! Beep Beep!
That Škoda is zooming through the bends. I’m impressed.

Battery packs really need to be in an I beam configuration, with high centre console/transmission tunnel style beam through the middle of the car, enabling the seats to be lower and/or better leg room. The skateboard design is responsible for all EVs being identical SUV lumps, and anyone trying to make a lower car ends up with compromised space

Wow the light panel on the car is very nice with different display that could be cast ❤
that car is gorgeous, that will turn way more heads than any lamborghini or ferrari ever could
Pleasantly surprised with this one, love how rich the accent colours are on the seatbelt (purple) - love how similar it resembles a futuristic GT-R, I would definitely buy this, glitches are to be expected with any new production car, luckily it's software and not so much mechanical issues! 2025 will be a good time to release in the UK as those glitches will be ironed out by then 😉 exciting times for futuristic designs on a large scale, our roads will look very different 10 years from now.
this car gave my many design choices similar to teslas... and that worries me if it will also have some safety missteps like them.
notably, the electric doors. the exterior doors when the fob was dead appeared to have zero way of actually sitting inside besides recharging it. that leaves zero mechanical way to open the doors from the outside, making that actually worse than teslas (as teslas are only stuck when the car is dead). i'm not even sure if this car has interior emergency release handles to exit the car.
Looks terrible wtf you talking about... We don't want roads full of these Chinese knock off designs..
Will Look like a Sunday Market clothes isle if we do
@@robblly8112 Agreed, maybe something like an emergency mechanical key like a valet key can be used by popping off a plastic cover somewhere to gain access with no power.
The other concern was with the doors flying open, and not having much of an object detection system for collisions (take from the video the baby in the pushchair) - also what about when parked? Do the doors extend fully potentially colliding into other cars and objects if the parked gap is too close? Not sure.
@@Addouk yeah... choosing the degree to which your door opens is mildly useful, but only if you know exactly how far to open your door. some sort of object detection would bee needed in that scenario to not cause a headache.
@@Addouk It has sensors so it knows how wide it can open the doors
Brilliant review of the Hiphe❤!
just point out how you can adjust the air condition vent flow direction. on the air condition animation page, use your hands to touch the flow animation to change whatever direction you want. No physical button needed.
2:34 even more solid build quality than a european brands 😂
Because it's expensive, funny how you get better quality when you pay alot.
Looks like a future video game car waiting to be added by Rockstar Entertainment. Even the naming got me thinking out loud 😂
Yep. Possibly Torque JX Super Prototype?
Annis Elegy X?
tell dev needs some bug fixes
How many people got into cars from Midnight Club?
If only they fixed all the glitches and gave it more physical controls rather than everything being done from the screen. I don't even mind that it's electric, I think it really fits this car. But the styling is gorgeous, and I love the exterior LEDs for displaying text and images. I do also wish they made it look more like a sedan than a wagon, but at least it's not an SUV.
the looks nailed the definition of exaggeration. so on point!
Old Top Gear called it, soon we shall be driving Chinese cars. It is crazy how far they have come in such a short amount of time.
Those piston arm things on the back of the infotainment screen look SO COOL!!! Thats my favourite design decision for the interior! The seats look just like Tesla seats.
yeah, NO. Tesla seats are a piece of boiled shit.
It also has the BMW i8 prototype vibe. Mostly because of the color scheme but also because of the black bar on the side for instance.
i8 Prototype and Mitsubishi i-Miev vibes.
The back bar is giving Lincoln mkz

2) the car squeaks because (someone already wrote about it) the car is not designed for left-hand traffic and is "scared" when someone is driving towards.
and yet, from China to Almaty, I order it for 65.500 pounds :/
I loved how friendly British people are on the streets 😂♥️.
Long live Britain 🇬🇧.
I've seen that one last Week Wednesday here in Frankfurt, Germany. Also explains the Frankfurt license plate. did i see Matt?
I can say it looks much better in Person as well, has quite the Presence
Prost & Cheers from Germany
Yep. Amin. I appreciate it.
Sir, the car key is electric. You may not respond to the car key. The owner may set the face to recognize the spoon of the face. The first time the car sensing to the key is recognized and confirmed to the owner's face. Function. Since you are not a car owner, the car will open the door for your face recognition to save your avatar information, but the place where your standing does not respond to the camera. The car cannot recognize your face, so you will not open the door.
That sound is the alarm sound of the security system. You must have set up a function prohibition in any place where you operate the display display, and the car will always call the police telling you that the driving environment does not meet your settings.
This car is screaming prototype in more ways than healthy. It is like an extremely talented toddler.
My least favourite issues are the reduced legroom in the rear area, and onscreen controls that shouldn't be onscreen. I don't know what it would take to convince manufacturers that the touchscreen doesn't solve all problems.
The exterior lcd graphics should definitely not come standard. They seem like great options for utility cars like taxis and police cruisers.
Not a huge fan of the headlights. For such a sophisticated overall design language, they look rather basic.
Actual performance seems rock solid, and even though I haven't driven it, this video alone convinces me of just how good it would be on the road.
The key fob issue is a total fiasco, and again, dear manufacturers; self articulating doors should be an option. Most people have never had an issue using hands to pull doors open or push them shut.
Overall storage volume leaves much to be desired. The charging port too needs serious attention.
I know for certain that refining this car and breaking it down into 3 or 4 trim levels will significantly improve pricing, and I can see it being a favourite worldwide. It is one of the the newer cars that looks and looks like it feels like it was designed to be useful.
It looks like an unrefined product of a relentlessly passionate hard worker.
The electric door opening feature which controls the door’s range of motion is not unnecessary at all. Specifically in cities where you often park close to other vehicles. Unless the door has sensors that automatically detect the distance from other vehicles or walls.
This car reportedly has around 610bhp.
At 23:27 it seems to do have sensors to detect door-to-obstacle.
They have sensors, but it's useful if you are opening the door on the road and don;t want to fully open it into incoming traffic.
actually it does!
I thought th door thing was stupid until I realized you can open doors for people so you don't need to exit your car. Then again OTOH I can see Americans hating that because a big part of dudebro car culture is opening your door for your lady and seating her before going back to your drivers seat. Oh well.
It's great, really refresing design
I might be wrong, I think you can gain access and start the car via Bluetooth of your phone or the build in face recognition technology
Love the styling!
