JAC Motors enters UAE market with Al Habtoor Motors

Why China, just WHY? Why couldn’t you stay away from the automobile industry? We have enough Chinese things all around our lives! A Chinese CAR is the last thing that I would want to buy in this life

Most car companies manufacture car components and spare parts from Chinese suppliers. So I guess the car your driving irrespective of the brand has got a Chinese touch to it. If they can make the iPhone what’s wrong if they attempting to make cars.
Come on mate let’s stop stereotyping.
It a real eye-opener to see how less sales margins are maintained by these Chinese brands which allows them to price it at lower price bands when compared to the competition.

Having Chinese ‘components’ is much better than having a Chinese CAR. And in response to Terence – I don’t know about Brasil, buddy, but whatever you have will definitely not last here in DUBAI. I am not stereotyping, but it’s a fact. Even Toyotas, BMWs and Porsches are having recalls, definitely can’t dive into a decision leaving all those brands and buying a CHINESE car. I had driven a Chinese car once called “FAMILY”, belong to Chery I guess…SUCKED!

This is reality, U need to accept.
U May don’t know millions like BMW,Audi, and Benz are assembled in China, lasting more than 10 years, only except Lexus.
All of luxury brands except supercar brand have joint adventure companies with Chinese Auto company.

Talk about a diverse portfolio.. Bentley, Bugatti, McLaren and JAC.

Idiots don’t realize that several of their health support systems are made in China. gone are days when chinese products were synonymous to cheap products ONLY

I got a chinese car from JAC Motors in Brasil for the last 3 years. I can’t say how much I am pleased of leaving other brands. They are really good and I can see you have never driven one. Like who has in Brasil a car like mine can say for sure chinese cars are the new Hyundai. In 5 years I bet you will have yours. Don’t say anything before you drive one because the cars are really good.
Dante
This is right, whose who never have been to China or never drive one Chinese car don’t know what happens in China.

It is not about how good the car is, it is more about brand perception.
Chinese cars can offer all the features out there with a 20 year 2 million km warranty, but it will take a generation or 2 before people start considering them over Toyotas or Hondas.
Hyundai/Kia are still not the leaders in any category and they have been trying for quite some time.
Cars are not mobile phones where people try out new cheaper brands to “save” a few hundred dirhams.
It is also not about China per se, if a new brand came out of the US or even Germany, it will take a lot of time before people consider them over other established brands.
