Would You Survive a Car Crash in a Chinese Made Car?
That’s the question posed by the video below. While the answer varies from maker to maker and model to model, I know I would stay away from anything made by Chery just because of the below video:
Here’s another video of a crash test on one of Chery’s cars, this time the QQ. The QQ does a little better than the Amulet above, but is still something to be a little scared about:
Guess the idea of buying a cheap car for China that was made in China doesn’t sound so appealing any longer…
Might as well put this comment here:
I have read much of your site, and have to wonder why a secretly supremecist expat like you is living in a country that you constantly mock and degrade? There seem to be lots of smug, (loser) people like you in Asia these days, thinking they are better than everyone else, when it is clear they were unattractive and socially awkward in their home countries.
I hope you have a half-Asian male son with your GF so that you can reconcile your not-very-subtle superiority complex over Asian males. You dork.
Hey Alvin,
I understand that my site and many of its comments and observations might seem a bit offensive to you to you (although you haven’t told me why), but let me ask you a question:
Have you lived in China for several years? Do you have any idea how many things are messed up here? Trust me, after living here for any significant length of time, your perspective on China would change enormously. For each of its individual strengths (and there are many), China has a weakness.
And I don’t have any type of “superiority complex over Asian males”, nor do I think I am better than others around me. And back home, I wasn’t a loser, I was a fairly average guy in many ways and above average in some.
If you want to make specific arguments about what is and isn’t ’supremacist’ on this website instead of making blanket accusations, go ahead, I’d be happy to talk about it with you.
I’ve read much of this site as well, and have yet to see any “supremacist” attitude, never mind degrading comments about Chinese males. But maybe I just missed the posts?
Or maybe Alvin thinks he owns a piece of Asia and it’s his right to decide what type of people he wants in his Asia.
The dork.

It didn’t fare well in crash testing conducted in Germany either.
Two rules for driving in China:
Rule #1 - Don’t hit anything.
Rule #2 - Watch out for the cameras.
Pictures above show why rule #1 is so important.
At one time the safety rating of American cars was not that great either …
Any, you know what, in thirty years of driving I have had very few accidents, and no head-on collisions or dangerous rear-end collisions.
The probability of such accidents is actually worse in the US where there are more low-IQ people driving. These people take more risks and have less regard for the lives of others.
Indeed, we have just seen such an example:
