I just thought this was worth raising a Post on just to indicate that there are “Bargains” around, but it is what you get for your money that is the real “Eye Opener”. This Report from the ADAC (German equivalent of RAC / AA) on the Test of this Cut Price Chinese Suda SA01 Car from the 13.01.21 has certainly raised some eyebrows here. I have attached the report below (in German) just as reference to indicate how complex the Test was - Dave 🥴

ADAC crasht Suda SA01: E-Auto :

This comment was completely new to me that NO Crash Tests need to be completed on this vehicle :
“Framed under a low-volume law in Germany, the Suda SA01 does not have to pass any crash tests to get certified. It is cheap because it does not present airbags, ESP, or ABS. If it at least had a decent structure, it would not be so frightening, as you will have the chance to confirm just by checking the footage.l
