From knock-off old-man's electric vehicles to industrial giant

Chapter 191 Buy the old man's car, look for Xingchen, even foreigners know this?

the other side.

The buzzword "Chinese electric vehicle" quickly gained popularity not only on Amazon but also on multiple multinational trade platforms.

Meanwhile, the videos continue to go viral on platforms like YouTube, garnering impressive viewership.

Just how popular is it?
Someone has created a special section for it, which includes a lot of buying guides as well as detailed reviews and usage instructions.

During this period, many new brands also emerged.

Some of these are three-wheeled electric vehicles, electric pickup trucks, and high-imitation old-age electric vehicles.

They sell for even lower prices than Star Auto.

This has attracted widespread attention from people overseas, and sales are also growing steadily.

Jason, as the originator of this trend, is also among the bloggers who have gained the most followers and revenue.

this time.

His channel gained nearly 300,000 followers, which is quite remarkable on the platform, considering that automobiles are not a large category. His video revenue has increased dramatically.

Even his channel's backend has seen numerous brands wanting to "advertise" with him.

Upon checking the IP addresses, it turned out they were all from Chinese brands.

The other party said they could personally deliver one or even more electric cars to him, and would also pay him a generous cash reward if he was willing to promote them on their channel.

"I'm glad you appreciate my video content, but I believe this kind of verbatim reading is a form of defamation against my official channel, so I reject this kind of false promotional review..."

Jason read the message carefully and replied with a hint of anger.

Look at this advertising slogan: cheaper than the world's cheapest electric car, with performance comparable to an off-road vehicle, durable for twenty years without breaking down, from the light of Eastern industry...

To be honest, that's a bit over the top.

Although he liked these low-priced electric cars from China.

However, he believes the main highlight comes from the price.

The "Starlight Electric Vehicle" tested previously was indeed very solid in quality, but that was in comparison to vehicles under ten thousand US dollars.

It's not to say that it's truly comparable to a regular car costing twenty or thirty thousand US dollars.

Do these Chinese brands not understand advertising laws?

Losing public trust is a very dangerous thing.

Jason's channel has been running for several years, so naturally he wouldn't do something so foolish as to harm his fans.

"However, I have already purchased different brands of Huaxia electric vehicles and will conduct a detailed comparative review. If your products are really as good as the brochures say, then I don't mind giving you free publicity."

Jason added another comment.

Yes.

He recently spent money to buy four or five electric vehicles from the Huaxia brand, which are best-selling on Amazon, and they have all arrived. These vehicles are very affordable and inexpensive.

This piqued his intense curiosity.

He plans to make a comparative review program based on this to test which brand is the real king of low prices.

Where does the Xingchen Automotive brand rank among them?

……

"Welcome to my car comparison show. I'm your old friend Jason, and next to me is my good brother Tommy, who will be my assistant today..."

The familiar compound.

This time, however, there were four or five high-quality replicas of old-age music vehicles lined up in a row, quietly parked there!
The brand-new paint and high-quality replica made the video a sensation.

This is not the previous three-wheeled electric vehicle, but a more expensive "high-imitation series of old people's vehicles".

The familiar appearance of a luxury car.

Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Rolls-Royce is a pain in the neck, Bentley is just adding to the chaos...

To be honest, this is nothing new in the country.

It's been popular for two years now, so everyone's used to it.

But it's enough to make any foreigner's eyes widen!

"This time we purchased several of the best-selling Chinese electric vehicles on Amazon, including the Star, which you are familiar with. It was the first Chinese brand to come into my view and it impressed me greatly before."

But what shocked me even more was the incredible appearance of these cars, and their even more incredible prices. Just look at the exteriors of these brands; you can find alternatives to almost any luxury car.

Moreover, I've also checked, and these cars have all incorporated extensive patent avoidance designs, some even having applied for their own patents... That's just amazing.

In other words, even if you buy such a car, driving it on the road will not constitute brand infringement.

Jason said in an exaggerated way.

He would have found it hard to believe if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

"Of course—that's not the most outrageous thing. The most outrageous thing is the price of these cars."

Take this Star 01 for example. It is a complete replica of Porsche and is priced at nearly three thousand US dollars, while other high-quality replica electric cars can be made cheaper.

If the quality is still not an issue, then your beloved Starcar may have to become a backup option.

Jason pointed at the row of cars and said with amusement.

In the previous two videos, and with the continuous antics of many bloggers.

Many people in the comments section said they learned a couple of Chinese phrases.

One of the sentences is "Reversing - please be careful".

The other phrase is the pronunciation of the brand name "Xingchen Auto".

Some people have exaggeratedly claimed that Xingchen Motors is the most conscientious brand in the world!
but now.

However, products with even lower prices have appeared.

“These cars look excellent. Let’s check the chassis first.”

Before filming the video, Jason inspected the appearance of these vehicles. While not without flaws, they were certainly worth the price. The old-age electric vehicles that have survived to this day are all battle-hardened and have undergone several rounds of product upgrades.

"It's amazing! You can even see a simple car suspension design in this toy-like mini electric car, with shock absorbers on every tire!!"

Tommy and I lifted the chassis of each car for side-by-side comparison.

Jason was deeply impressed.

This cost is simply unbeatable!
Judging from this, Xingchen Motors probably doesn't have much competitiveness anymore.

Because the other brands have a wider product range, and their replicas of luxury cars are even more extravagant.

"Wait, what do I see? The chassis of this car looks rusty..."

Upon inspecting the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Jason's eyes suddenly widened.

There were some obvious signs of rust on the simple suspension structure.

He touched it, not believing it.

He soon discovered that he wasn't mistaken; the wood was indeed rusted and corroded.

“Jason, I also found signs of rust on this car,” Tommy said from the other end.

That was a Bentley that was causing trouble. Its exterior was even more luxurious than other high-quality imitation old man's cars, but when you lifted the chassis, the bottom was very rough and had a messy design. To make matters worse, it was actually rusty underneath, and the rust covered a larger area.

These are all new cars.

"I understand. It's been the rainy season recently. These Chinese electric vehicle chassis have been transported by sea. The air near the sea has a high salt content. In addition, the humidity is high and the containers don't get enough sunlight, so the corrosion has occurred."

As an experienced car blogger, Jason quickly deduced it.

These electric vehicles, given their limited budgets, probably didn't employ any rust-proofing techniques.

Early car brands also experienced similar problems with some low-cost models.

Rust on chassis components is a major problem.

Once rust appears, after two or three years, the bottom will probably be so rusted that it's unsightly, and may even rot completely.

"This is truly a major discovery. It seems that it's too early to call these Chinese electric vehicles the pinnacle of industrial excellence..."

Jason laughed.

"Wait, why is there no rust at all on the chassis of this Star 01?"

He soon made another discovery.
