*يسب الداخلية و الفرامل و يصفها بأنها فرامل كرتونية cardboard Brakes
*يمدح الجير و المحرك
------------------------
الخلاصة
محرك 1800 سي سي مستوحى من محركات تويوتا
داخلية سيئة
فرامل سيئة
المقاعد سيئة
لو طولك فوق 1.75 ستعانى
المحرك نقطة جيدة فى السيارة و لكن مع هذه الفرامل الكرتونية يجب ان تكون حذرا
و النقطة الميكانيكية الجيدة هو الجير
نعم هى سيارة واسعة
نعم هى سيارة رخيصة
جيلى هى ماركة صينية جادة و قد استحوذت على فولفو و سوف يتم نقل التكنولوجيا بينهما لكن هذا لم يحدث الى الان
و كامرى الصينية لم يتم تصنيعها الى الان

?Chinese Camry. Could there ever be such a thing

Well, Geely’s Emgrand EC7 tries to be such a thing. Its 1.8-litre engine is a copy of Toyota’s venerable four-cylinder type-ZZ. Styling is retro-Camry-conventional too.

The crucial question, though, remains: at R149 990, is Emgrand a substantial enough value offering to lure first-time buyers away from established nameplates?

See, for that money you could buy a Vivo sedan. And that’s the problem. Yes, a Vivo sedan is smaller (a bit), with less boot space, but it’s mechanically sound, albeit a tad slower with a 77kW 1.6-litre engine.

The EC7 has a 103kW engine and its 680-litres of boot space is notable, but, the cabin is an ergonomic mess and the brakes feel like those of a Le Mans racer – on its final lap, faded to nothingness.

EC7′s seats are bizarrely shaped (you sit on top instead of supported by them), its driving position is maddeningly uncomfortable if you are taller than 1.75m and the blend of colours and textures are industrial instead of design. Emgrand EC7’s cabin is plainly awful, no matter how much kit they add. Suffice to say that after a 500km journey you’ll need chemical intervention to regain a state of being.

Admittedly the reverse engineered Toyota engine should move it about reliably, but with those cardboard brakes you’d be so very speed sensitive at all times that performance is not really part of equation. In fact, the only mechanical bit that’s vaguely (excuse the pun) of a competent standard is the five-speed manual transmission’s shift action.

It’s a spacious car, yes. Cheap? Very. But that’s like saying a Formula 1 hotel room is good value because it’s big; true, but would you want to live in one for a few years? Exactly.

Geely is a serious Chinese brand and owns Volvo. Suffice to say, technology transfer will happen, just not quite yet.

Chinese Camry? Never going to happen. Just yet.
