> china makes cars better than most luxury brands

More like China makes cheaper cars which is enough for most people.

Believe it or not, people aren't buying Audis in China because they're thrifty.

China was a huge market for Audi in the past as luxury status symbol. However, now Chinese buyers are so enamored with new tech-heavy Chinese luxury cars that Audi had to go make a whole sub-brand specific to the Chinese market just to stay in the game[1].

Google "Zeekr 9X" and then come back here if you still feel this way.

That is ugly AF and there is no way I'd buy that over a Porsche.

Zeekr 001 is prettier outside but inside still is terrible. https://www.datocms-assets.com/143770/1728613060-rectangle-4...

Calling it ugly is weird. It’s a copy-paste of a rolls Royce phantom, slapped on an SUV frame, with the cheapest possible interior they could design.

There are much better ways to insult this garbage product. :)

		The Phantom is the Royal Oak of cars. The grille only works as a bit of countersignaling in an otherwise perfectly executed product, if you strip out the rest it's just bad.

Watching my very, very MAGA 'friends' purchasing byd's is hilarious. I've also, of late, noticed fewer and fewer Teslas around.
