I appreciate how you've combined the fuel economy figures with the average speed. I believe it's the most effective method to draw a connection between driving habits and fuel efficiency. Please continue doing that on all your car reviews.

Hoping more people would also try the GAC brand. Very underrated but the most solidly-built, Chinese cars in the market today afaik and how it feels when you drive and ride their vehicles, apart from how they're more well-equipped now. Dare I say it, feels better than Geelys having experienced to drive several cars of the latter and even just a few from GAC. And yes, GS3 Emzoom >>>>> Coolray. Congrats on your own GS3 btw! I envy you, in a good way hehe. Pretty solid choice no doubt.

Definitely, the most tempting value proposition in its segment today, and maybe even in the segment higher and lower than where it belongs. The best thing is its a GAC, probably the utterly underrated brand but the most well-built Chinese cars I've driven and tried. Hoping the new local distributor can further improve and make the after-sales better so more and more would also get to own such impressive vehicles from the brand.

@TechAddict8642 11 месяцев назад

Never had an issue with the reverse just as long as you turn off the autohold function, since that one needs quite a bit of throttle to disengage and once it disengaged there comes the power surge causing jerk. Same with stop and go traffic, autohold must be turned off for smoother ride, unfortunately.

@ninjaaabunnny 11 месяцев назад

@jonmanilenio 11 месяцев назад

that fuel consumption is nuts! that alone already makes it worth it.

@CaptainChristianZ1818 5 месяцев назад

I test drove the Emzoom R style. Got to say, interior quality is unexpectedly good, punching above its class and price bracket. Even Japanese brands close to 2m can't compare. Everything you said is spot on, just the DCT i didn't experience at slow speeds, rather it was pretty smooth and reverse no issue too. But i have to agree with the manual mode. Should at least come with paddle shifters or +/- the very least. But having said that, the drive modes kind of make up for it with Eco, Comfort, Sport and Sport+.

@user-ld2yx6kc8t 11 месяцев назад

I am in the market of getting a new ride, I visited Geely and I am really impressed with how the build quality is for the CoolRay, and interior design and little bits and pieces of their attention to details, like knobs, how solidly the door closes makes a sound of quality, I love how Geely have its trunk, engine and under carriage cover, The engine bays looks neat. I am going to check this GAC Emzoom if it can match the CoolRay, I am not happy how GAC did not include any engine and trunk covers which is also a need. CoolRay is 90% Volvo parts and GAC is halo halo parts from different brand cars according to my research. I love the exterior look of the EMzoom very refreshing look.

To be honest the reasons why people buys this car like us Filipinos is because of their sporty look. Those major players like toyota, mazda, mitsubishi honda etc, they tend to look more sophisticated like European cars. If you wants their sporty side of the cars it would be more expensive than this new lines. Yrs from now people will go on electric vehicles (EVs)... That would be a different story...

Sir Vince did you experience any issues with the Emzoom while shooting this video? I can still recall the review on the City RS that shuts down when you get through a hump & the Ranger XLT that had a problem with it's multi-info display. I've been watching this video over & over again, it's very thorough & has the perfect shots of the whole vehicle. Masarap panuorin in short. I'm really thinking of getting the R-Style & hopefully I get your thoughts on it aside from the GAC forums.

Just lifting your foot ever so slightly on the brakes before stepping on the accelerator & your good to go. Well even new Toyotas have issues but it's good to know that you don't have anything to write about the Emzoom.
