[vlog] I Took My $20k Chinese Sedan to the Nürburgring! Can Trumpchi Empow R be the Best CDM?

Just a heads up from your friendly channel operator. Today, we're kicking off a new series... Here's the thing: initially, my plan was to continue with the YGT leaderboard. However, as Guru is planning a Nürburgring trip in the near future. So we've decided to pivot our update schedule to focus on Nürburgring lap vlogs, hoping to connect with fellow Nürburgring enthusiasts through our videos. Since this is a vlog, some original Chinese audio is included in the video. We've provided English subtitles for these parts, hoping the original voices enhance your experience and bring you closer to the atmosphere of the moment. This trip to the Nürburgring was in Oct. 2023, with the temp of 22°C during flying laps. Taking a Chinese car to Germany for a lap time challenge was a complex and daunting project for our small team, filled with numerous challenges along the way. Guru personally funded the purchase and mods of the car, but upon knowing of our plan to take the Empow R to the Nürburgring for testing, GAC sponsored the transportation costs. For the full story, make sure to watch the video! The car is Trumpchi Empow R, manufactured by GAC, released in 2023 with an MSRP of 138,000 RMB (about $19.2k USD). We invested close to $10k in mods, which is why you might hear us refer to it as the Empow RR in the video. A detailed list of these mods and costs can be found below. (although we did modifications, the ESP cannot be fully disabled, which significantly slow down the lap time) Tire: Yokohama A050 ---Sponsored by Yokohama Rims: ViWheel Custom Forged Rims ---$700 Suspension: AGT Inverted 2Way Coilovers ---$3500 Brakes: MOTVE MX6R-MONO Calipers + Discs ---$2300 LSD: GTLOCK Mechanical LSD ---$1000 MOBSTER Enlarged Radiator ---$260 MOBSTER Oil Cooler ---$630 MOBSTER Transmission Cooler ---$500 Qidu Racing Team Custom Carbon Fiber Hood + Roof + Trunk Lid ---$750 (I know, it's a unbeatable price for carbon fiber, lol) 00:00 Opening 00:12 Car Transport and Waiting 00:49 The Story with Yokohama 02:26 Meeting with Team Members 02:57 Racing & Daily Routine 03:45 Car Arrival 05:33 Prepare for Battle 06:25 Hot Lap 15:07 Some Thoughts 15:38 Leaderboard
