China's Luxury Car Is A Threat To Rolls-Royce, Mercedes, BMW, and Bentley 

You cannot assume a new product exhibits quality. Quality can only be proven over time.

BMDabau and Merceeds are in trouble 😂. Machine narration is hilarious.

It's called competition, not threat, and it's better for all of us if there's competition because there is a choice...

In terms of luxury cars, Western mindset might be more emphasized on brand prestige, but for Asian mindset, we are more than happy to enjoy the comfort of luxury cars with less costs.

Over pricing is one issue, levels of luxury is another and quality is still another. This is a mongrel , bit of every car in it. this is not for the rich, it's for the common people who want to look rich.

In China, u paid 99 cents u get 99cent products. u paid $10k, u get and average car. u paid $100k, u get luxury cars, u paid $1/2 million, u get a super car

Depending on the options, H9's curb weight is 4,100-4,400 pounds; horsepower is 252 or 283 horsepower. Those figures are not competitive with other luxury car makers.

Rolls-Royce, Mercedes, BMW, and Bentley in trouble... from 🤣Chy nahh😂 yeah nah.🤣

It may be a great car but no one who could afford a Rolls is going to drive a car called a Honqui.

I'll wait for a hands-on review, not just marketing pictures of the car.

The Chinese assembled best western countries models in China and behind the scenes their engineers started making better models and designs and outwit the competition at less price,no wonder most big firms moving out of China😢

Those people don't care about quality and price, social status is what luxury car all about.

We no longer need Mercedes, BMW or Audi.

Yup... Sure runs like a Rolls-Royce, but it lasts only 2 days.

Simply awesome ! Proud of Chinese auto engineers and designers!

1 Rolls Royce Ghost vs 4 Hongqi H9s? I'll take Ghost, thank you.

They'll need to change the name if they want to be taken seriously in English speaking markets, because: 1. In English, Hongqi phonetically sounds like 'Honky' which is a derogatory name in some countries. 2. In Chinese it means 'red-flag'. A red-flag in English however means a risk or something of concern. Neither of these are something you want associated with your lovely new luxury car.

Fantastic machine. Good to see competition and offering at such reasonable price.

Affordability contradicts luxury. Driving a RR is not about just a car but the price, its about collection of expensive items by wealthy people

I recently purchased Genesis G90 for my wife. It is every bit as good or better than the previous Benz and BMWs we have had. At a better price point.

Down the golf club George turns to Bernie and asks what do you think of the new honkchy 😂

BMW , BENZ , Bently or Rols Roys dont have any special metal but they market their brand name.. Thats why they are expensive.

The question is when will they be allowed to sell in North America? We are all sick of the politics and the monopoly

Hongqi for south Africa

Rich people who can afford to buy a luxury car in this price range will choose the status of the established companies - they aren't really interested in Chinese startup companies when compared to Rolls Royce who has been producing for over 100 years. Snobbery plays an important part in their decision to purchase as well as a proven track record of reliability and luxury service.

We can see thousands of these cars in Chinese roads,few years ago the Chinese roads were filled with volkswagen,bmw,audi,benz ,mazda,ford…etc like brands But now year by year the percentage is drastically reduced to Chinese brands . 4 years ago i saw 90% of the taxi in china were volkswagen and now it’s only 10%….Chinese auto industry is booming….

That red light in the front may be illegal in many states

Glad you’re pronouncing the name correctly. We need this in Hong Kong!!

I think they should put out a model named the ‘Mho Pho’ and only in white. They could call it White Hongqi Mho Pho.

no brand dna, no brand history, no branding plan , no future

If it's not built with the same quality that Lincoln Town Car , Crown Victoria , and a Lexus LS400 is built , it ain't got nothing

If I am spending so much money on a car, I would not want a car that is called "Hongqi".

Didn't expect a comparison video to mention RR, Bentley, Audi A6 and MB EClass in the same sentence. 😅😅

Showing up in such a car automatically triggers in the minds of the on-lookers "Pure sod - couldn't afford the real thing"

Why are these cars being shown here in the US when they are only available in China?

I would like to have one today but I don't have the money this is very beautiful car. Good job China 👌👌👍👍✊✊🇨🇳🇨🇳

Give it to Clarkson to put round the track.

Comparing a chinese copycat product with an S-class or a Rolls Royce is just pure comedy gold.😂 Outside of china, that car is just irrelevant.

Luxury and Chinese don't go together. Cheap quality is all I think of.

Hongqi has a long way to go before it can compete with established brands.

Thanks to China once again, giving luxury without the bloated price trick.

What's the Mersaids Benz S class and the BM Dewey?

WOW 282 Horse Power! What a Monster Powerhouse😂😂😂😂. Look out for FASTER Minivans!!!

Always wanted a BM Dewey 7 series

it's like calling xiaomi an iphone killer because they have cheap good quality iphone copies , iphone is bought for prestige and xiaomi is bought for budget

A resemblance to a MB S class? What an incredible coincidence!

This car manufacturer understands that the GRILL is EVERYTHING.

The Genuine RR may cost 3 times as much as the imitation however I would prefer it to the knock off

I'd buy one.lookz good and affordable when renewing.

The name of rolls Royce and Mercedes has to many years planted in people heads , so they will always see them as the car of status.

How may I get more information about this car. Specifically, How may I get information on how to purchase one. Thank you

Does the screen say "welcome" when you turn it on?

Where do they source the drive trains from?

Not even for free ! 🔥🔥🔥

Bought Washing machine hoses, manufactured in China. That evening walked by the machine and got spritz with a fine mist in the face. Imagine the insurance claim had that let go on the upper floor in a condo while you were away. Rubber was made from recycled tires, total garbage. Have experiences with multiple rubber products from garden gloves, hoses, etc. Similarly, plastic from China is no good. My windows thermometers of which I had three, all disintegrated into shards within three years.Again, recycled plastic. Bread toasters from China have to be unplugge because they will catch on fire while you’re away at work. Chinese electric cars are burning up at a high rate and the fire cannot be doused with chemicals or water. Sometimes they burn entire buildings down if they’re parked closely. Lying, cheating and stealing, buy one, good luck surviving. The airbags are known not to deploy for a starters.

I had a 1993 W140 S500l Mercedes. It had 320 hp. It was all beast.

wow beautiful, will sell like hot cakes without doubt, dreaming of owning one soon.

Great Chinese machine. Very impressive ❤

They cannot build buildings much less a car to compete with R. R.??

All of this is assuming the car doesn't catch on fire... which seems to happen quite frequently.

I don't think it's all about price or comfort.. it's all about branding

Plastic moulding is no comparison to hand crafted real wood panels... Or machine stitched foe leather versus hand stitched Real Leather...

its like a hybrid maybach rolls and jaguar combined

The Chinese cannot sell passenger aircraft because Boeing and Airbus have warehouses everywhere in the USA, & any rquired part can be delivered in less than 4 hours. The Chinese have cars to sell, but if you need a part in the USA, it may arrive by ship in a month!! That's why they are NOT a threat to RR, Benz BMW & Bentley. French, Italian & Russian cars are in the same category.

it should be. where do you think they got the plans and technology from?

The 1 inch bezels of the screens makes it look cheap.

5 series A6 and S class, RR are not even competitors in Europe. A 5 series and A6 are mananger's cars. RR and S class are director level cars. The difference in price between 5 series and RR is over £200000.😂

How Long Will It Last Before It Brakes And Were Will We Be Able To Buy Parts If It Dose

Most people who can afford a new Rolls Royce are not bothered about a competitive price tag.

Bruh, the question at the end had we weak. C'on. Really really. This reminds me of the Genisis brand. I will keep my Rolls Royce.

Tofu Luxury like flood with no Drainage System. NEEDS to be studied for a longtime.

I used to buy into all the branding years ago. If it goes and is reliable then fine for me.

I saw this car at the Guangzhou Auto Show. It is simply amazing.

And I bet it rides and drives like a surf board ! Kowabunga Dudes ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.

After use what will be the resale value ?

I lived in China until Jan 2024. These vehicles were seen as a complete disaster. Frequently catching fire and always in the garage for repairs.

Comes with a 6 month warranty.🤣😂

They’ve done nothing but copy the European automakers, I have a BMW 760Li, and a Mercedes Benz S65 AMG BMW and Mercedes should sue this company for copyright infringement

When it comes to luxury cars, it is less about value for money, which is what these Chinese manufacturers appear to think. It is about status for money. Will take a long time and lots of effort to approach the perceived value German and British luxury cars possess.

pricing is matter in building a luxury brand, Chinese companies need to be more confident in pricing their luxury class goods. Pricing it too cheap could make the brand suffer.

At this level if you think price is a key feature then you need to go back to marketing & branding class.

After years of uphill battle against THE luxury cars,.. ..., Genesis is still perceived as the imitation of Lexus...

I like it. RR, BMW, Merc overrated- waste. Thank you China for making luxury affordable.

Well, I don't know what their quality and durability against RR, Mercedes Benz, BMW and Bentley are. All those brands have long-term durability track records. Also, I've checked their site and from what I see they don't sell vehicles in Canada, USA or most of Europe.

A threat? Not really. The four brands mentioned have been around for decades and have proven themselves with customer approval and loyalty.

awesome.....new competition begin using NEW standard.

Looks nice. Not sure about service on Chinese cars but I bought a Chinese motorcycle over Japanese because the Chinese bike had a bigger engine than a comparable Japanese bike plus the dealer offers free service for the life of the bike. The ride is similar, gas mileage is not as good because it isn't fuel injected, but in a year my out of pocket costs for tune ups, oil changes and gas is still less than a new Japanese bike.

I very much doubt that car will be rivaling a Rolls-Royce for build quality

The world is blessed with talents and meritocracy is its life blood....The difference here is that China is able to produce the same quality with a significantly lower cost. To the collective West it is called State Subsidy but to the rest of the world it is competition.

Wealthy people who are accustomed to the highest quality are not suddenly going to buy an imitation when they can have the real deal

very impressive. great interior and exterior. i would GLADLY buy one.

Amongst the people that are buying Rolls-Royce or Bentley, if you arrive inside some Chinese knock off like this, they consider you an absolute clown. They'll never respect you again.

Don't let all your friends have the real thing, except you. Get the real thing.

Very interresting blog. 👍

Let's talk about it after 5 years.

i'll get the hongqi and donate some of the money i saved from overpriced rr or bentley otherwise burnt ha

Plus, it has a 30-30 warranty! 30 feet or 30 minutes, whichever comes first. Who wouldn't want an expensive Chinese car to go with all the rest of the broken Chinese stuff they own?

The air-conditioning system has buttons. Wow, that's new.

I love Chinese cars but I would choose RR if I can afford one

Really? By default the products we buy have parts made in China, and where as American or European made past lasted for 30 years , Chinese made parts last for 5 years. The fact is even the Chinese prefer foreign made cars over domestically produced.
