About China's Coolest Cars
A slightly overloaded tricycle, seen at night in central Beijing by our good friend Lao Wei, thank you for the pictures! The dapper tricycle is loaded to the absolute max, about 4 meters up and 3 wide. Hope it doesn’t need to pass too many tunnels. Note the Beijing-Hyundai Elantra taxi in the background on the left.

A Tesla Model S, seen at a Tesla charging station in Beijing in January 2019 by Lao Wei, thank you for the picture! The Model S was wrapped in a matte pink rosé wrap, and further dressed up with darkened rear windows, dark headlight visors, and dark black wheels. Inside sits a female with a yellow cap on her head, it seems she is looking at her phone.
The wrap seems high quality and it is neatly wrapped around the whole car, leaving only the window frames and the door handles. Like in the rest of the world, Tesla only offers a very limited number of colors for their cars in China. Wraps are cheap so many Tesla’s get the wrapping treatment.
Current price of the Tesla Model S in 2019 started at 722.800 yuan, which was, and still is, very steep. The Model S never really took off in China but the X became quite popular. But Tesla sales really took off with the Tesla Model 3, and later on with the China-made Model 3.
This is not a 1960’s Rolls-Royce Phantom V from England. Instead, this is a Jinma QJM5037XLF from China. The nearly seven-meter long limousine was seen in Beijing by Lao Wei, thank you for the pictures!
