If they want to copy cars and sell them to their own people who cares. Assuming they ever pass safety and emissions standards, these cars would never compete directly with the car they are copying anyway. Its one thing to sell knock off watches, ipods, purses, another to sell knock off cars.

God dont these people have a single original thought in there head !!

What’s really funny is have a look at the side mirrors on the Hummer H1 Clone. They are identical to the original? Looks like the came out of the same parts bin. Don’t know what they were thinking?

Clones shmones. That just shows a lack of originality, which is a GOOD thing. What is cause for concern is the lack of quality, engineering, and safety, that crash test was positively horrifying. Any Russian who buys a chinese car is a fool, but then again, Russians have demonstrated foolishness before.

so what. russia and arab countries have been doing this for years with mercedes. but in retropec they were still safe

The entire Great Wall Motors (GWM) lineup is older Toyota knockoffs, including the Cool Bear (xB/bB) and the Florid (xA/ist). I believe GWM purchases the dies and tools from Toyota once the company has decided to discontinue a model.

It’s not a matter of honor, respect for others’ efforts, recognition of international law or ethics… whoever created these simply have none of that. It’s all about making money by copying the looks of popular vehicles.

They don’t give a rat’s ass about anything else… and they don’t know how to make decent cars. They sure as hall have no clue or maybe ability to come up with their own ideas.

It looks like a lancer got rear-ended by a jeep and the two cars merged…
