@@stoneliu6784 China makes good shit idk what you're on about. Literally look at their high-speed rail network or their subway systems.

As per BYD's recommendations, this action should only be utilized in emergency situations and subsequently the vehicle should undergo a comprehensive service inspection.
The reality is that this (paid for advertising) stunt almost definitely totaled the vehicle.

The problem is that if you do this, water gets everywhere, and it doesn't get out again.

Just general, never buy a "flood damage" car, even if it "runs fine" cause the repair costs are just gonna run away
The old VW Beetle from the early 60's used to be water tight so you could drive it into a lake. The parts department at the dealerships even sold propellers for the back bumper if you wanted one. (True story.)

This is a BYD Yangwang U8 which is a luxury and amphibious SUV selling at over 1 million yuan (about 150,000 USD) in China. It is selling at a sales rate of about 1000 units a month so far. Most of the buyers are business owners and managers working for big companies, according to Chinese media reports 6 days ago. I don't know if average westerners can afford it but in China, average folks can't, 1 million yuan for a car is very expensive. But China has a lot of rich people so this car is still selling well, it has sold 7,083 units since launched 7 months ago (a sales rate of about 1,000 units per month on average).
@@GoodCitizen-gm1tl wow thanks for the info! I thought it was some kinda Range Rover or something. Had no idea this was an expensive amphibious luxury vehicle. In america cars over 50k people don’t buy readily. Cars over 100k are for people with means. The average American makes 30 to 50k a year. You need to make atleast 150k a year to afford this vehicle with the inflation in the states. Yeah that’s a big boy toy! Thanks for the education!
It’s not floating. That water isn’t that deep. It’s just designed to be able to operate in flood situations. Similar to military vehicles with snorkel attachments.
Supposedly if you don't switch gears and keep a consistent slow speed the engine running will keep all the water out of it. The second there's a pause by getting off the gas or a gear shift your engine will flood and your car will be dead
Next step would be to fit automatic pop up propeller either from wheels or from rear. Maybe airbags too that can be packed back into hidden compartments..
@@gotskills23 thank you, you’ve made me smarter. I looked it up and it seems you are correct. Now if the surface area changed then it would be a different story. But I from what I read, the more air you compress in there, the heavier it gets, in turn making it less buoyant.
it can float on water, do tank turns, has long range, is good off road and is cheap to buy.. everything the cybertruck wanted to be but wasnt. Just needs to be bulletproof too.
Wow! Just what I need! A car that goes through deep water here in the desert! Please send as many as you are able for myself, family, friends and business associates.
@xinyiquan666 don't need my car or truck to float, that's why I have a boat! And when need be, I can use a bridge. Nobody makes floating cars because nobody needs them.
@@Coupe420 no, because your place have no such technology, this technology is for car emergency in flooding, everyone needs it in case of it, also bridge in US fall apart every another day, so is boat, it can not even make any boat in the first place, thats why everything there is imported from china including drones u bought for ur kid
I've never seen a Beetle with a snorkle kit. They've been known to drown in 1 feet of water, because you know. ICE. I don't have an EV either. When roads are flooded, how deep do you dare to go? I never go anywhere deeper than 8 inches, because that is the clearance under mine.
