German-Chinese Grand Turismo

Chinese manufacturers have surprised us with many things: floating all-terrain vehicles, jumping supercars, micro-machines for the price of a refrigerator… And there is no limit to new discoveries. Before us is the Denza Z9 GT – a joint creation of Mercedes-Benz and the largest Chinese manufacturer of electric vehicles, BYD. And this miracle of technology in a hatchback body can be either electric or hybrid, accelerates to the first hundred in just over three seconds, has premium finishing materials and two refrigerators, but even this is not the most important thing.

Firstly, Denza can drive diagonally, like a helicopter – the rear axle here is steering. And also “compass” to turn on the spot, braking the front wheels and shifting the stern in the desired direction due to the rotation of the rear wheels. All you have to do is drive your nose into a horizontal parking slot, throw the stern in there sideways and you’re done. Don’t understand how it works? Watch the new video. By the way, BYD recently bought out Mercedes-Benz in this project and now it is a 100% Chinese car, which is already sold by gray dealers in Russia. So expect all these tricks on the streets of our cities.

And here you can read one of the first tests of the 2025 Motor. Consisting of many minor inconveniences and roughnesses, the Geely Cityray is repulsive only at first, but after a week it already seems like a completely normal car. And at the same time, Cityray has many things that owners of some initial BMW third series only recently dreamed of.

And here is a review of the most expensive Changan Uni-K iDD in Russia. On the one hand, this is an ordinary Uni-K crossover, which has already become familiar on our roads. On the other hand, there is a car that can be an electric car on request. It’s essentially a plug-in hybrid that promises up to 1,000 kilometers of range. However, what is there in reality? /m
