I have seen these pictures before. They just need more times to develop their cars. Right now I won't trust them...

In the comparisons I saw, those german VW SUV and MB SUV got some of the best(4 outta 5 or more) crash ratings...

They own the remains of MG Rover, including most of the old production lines which were shipped to China. They are talking about small scale production at the old Rover factory at Longbridge in Birmingham, but it'll be a mere shadow of it's former self.........

No offense to anyone, but our market is full with Chinese products, and in my opinion? the Chinese should be limited to electronics and never to cars.

I recently was acknowledged with the "CHERY" automobiles, I saw one for the first time in a garage. It was a 2005, the reason? BRAKE FAILURE
They are good looking cars, innovative in their designs, but would any Chery last more than 2 years?

as for the 4X4 in that link, guys just have another look at the chassis shown in the inner rear fender, does that look like a real 4X4 solid one? no wonder the dummy ATE the steering wheel

I think the steering wheel ate the dummy I have a feeling that even the dummy was retired after that, unrepairable

Hyundai has come a long way in a few years ...... given some time and quality lockdown, the Chinese may put out some decent stuff.

i look forward to the Chery Corrette.

I think he was just comparing the beginning of the Chinese cars with the beginning of the Korean cars... he is not saying that Hyundai, Kia and Daewoo are Chinese
