Test Compared Chinese Replica Inspired by Rolls-Royce with Original Model and Bentley at 40 km/h Using a Cup of Water as Stability Parameter; Result Showed Performance Similar to Authentic British Car and Spillage Only in the Bentley After Bumps

A Chinese replica of the Rolls-Royce was compared to the original model and a Bentley in a suspension test at 40 km/h with a cup of water; the result showed performance similar to the Rolls-Royce and spillage only in the Bentley.

Direct Comparison Between Original Rolls-Royce and Chinese Version

The YouTube channels FAST and Hi Humans put an authentic Rolls-Royce head to head with the version produced by Hongqi. The aim was to evaluate the suspension behavior using a cup of water as a stability parameter.

During the test conducted at 40 km/h, equivalent to 25 mph, the two vehicles showed very similar performance. After the run, neither car had spilled water, although the Rolls-Royce demonstrated a slight advantage in smoothness.

Rolls-Royce as Reference and Performance Description

During the recording, the Hongqi was described as able to “serve as a restaurant on wheels.” The direct comparison reinforced the closeness between the replica and the original Rolls-Royce in terms of comfort and stability.

The visual similarities between the models made the confrontation natural. The assessment sought to verify whether the performance matched the aesthetics inspired by the Rolls-Royce.

Confrontation with Bentley Reveals Difference in the Test

After the first comparison, the Hongqi was put against a Bentley. The British model is recognized for its luxury and smoothness in driving, elevating expectations for the new test.

However, when passing over a series of small bumps, the Bentley showed difficulties. There was visible spillage of water, in contrast to the Chinese car, which navigated the section without losses in the cup.

The result was considered the true surprise of the experiment. The performance of the Bentley contrasted with the stable behavior previously demonstrated against the Rolls-Royce.

Suspension Architecture and Market Implications

The multilink suspension architecture of the Chinese model showed its value in the test. The vehicle also features hydraulic bushings and pneumatic springs, elements highlighted as performance factors.

The tests indicated that Western brands may face challenges if cheaper competitors with performance similar to the Rolls-Royce enter the market. The scenario suggests that traditional manufacturers will not have an easy time facing this competition.

The direct comparison between Rolls-Royce, Hongqi, and Bentley highlighted practical differences in performance. Even being a replica, the Chinese model demonstrated the ability to approach the standard set by the original Rolls-Royce and to surpass the Bentley under specific conditions.
