The Roewe iMAX8 is a Big MPV with a Wild Center Console (Complete with Tea Set)
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Today we’re going to be exploring a vehicle in what we think is one of the more underappreciated automotive segments, MPVs. These things aren’t known for delivering driving thrills, but we're interested in seeing if this Roewe iMAX8 can entertain in other ways (Hint: it can)

Those british might murder over this cars Tea is life there
Auto-sliding center console, these kind of ambitious ideas from Chinese automakers really really amazes me. Normally things like these never comes out of drawing board in favor of costs and maintenances, but these cars visually and functionally proves it’s not such a bad idea afterall and as a design engineer, it’s really satisfying to watch
Since Roewe used to be a British brand and everyone know both British and Chinese love tea. Yes,it is a good design!

hey great channel! finally found an English speaking car review channel! loving all the new Chinese vehicles these days 👍
Love your videos guys. I genuinely think chinese car brands are the dark horse of the world. This thing looks incredible. Strange how the world has almost no knowledge and recognition of these amazingly futuristic cars! I've never seen such cool lights in a car before. I if you sold these in the west they would break the car market
Loving your videos dude 👍🏻 keep it up.
Your video I saw was the changan uni-t . I subscribed to channel right away when I checked on your other videos. I Have always wanted a Chinese based English car chanel , that review to us whats exactly happening on the other side of the world. I love your production .Keep up the good work. God bless you.
quite a lexus-like grille, not complaining tho, it's a pretty pretty interesting package
I really hope some Chinese brands make it to the US. We're a bit egotistical.
Excellent review, perfect👍
Hope this can come to Australia. Loving the MG and LDV on offers in Australia atm.
That's actually nice. Looks unique

Iam actually liking mps alot lately it feels like a mini house
Hi you should mention about the remote connectivity. You can locate the van on your mobile. It recognizes you the moment you enter the car. It also can do ECU and other upgrades with or without your consent. Hopefully all the information it collects (face, voice, location, ECU data) end up into good hands and good use.
I'm from India and like Chinese cars. Great job by your team. Keep up and make more videos like this.

Great review there! Been following the channel for some time and I am just fascinated by the Chinese automotive market. Keep up the good work!
That tea set is undoubtedly the "Chinesiest" thing I've ever seen in a vehicle, but I want one SO BAD!! If the build quality of the vehicle is good enough, I would consider buying one if they exported them to Australia to use as executive transport. The resale value would be pretty low, but the savings in buying and operating one of these over a Q7 or similar would negate that- and then some, probably.
Looks like a Lexus at the front which is nice....Looks a useful big car.About time the UK got some of these Chinese cars,surely people would by them.
