The Chinese Range Rover (Hongqi LS5), it comes with a 380 HP twin-turbo V8, 8-speed auto and is larger than the outgoing Audi Q7

Kinja'd!!!

It looks stately and square, just how every luxury car should be.

Kinja'd!!!

Look at how awful the interior is (that bit I don’t like)

Kinja'd!!!

A car for the people.

The Chinese just need to start a company that only sells vehicles from GTA:V this already looks like a GTA style Grand Cherokee.

Looks like a total hunk of Chinese shit to me. Like every single car that’s ever come out of China!

(Yes the Bravado Gresley is technically a Durango)

The GTA V ones look more like real cars than the Chinese ones. The Chinese ones look more saints row.

I always thought the Gresley looked a lot like my Tribeca.

Do you also like corny 50s stuff and “Hawaiian” shirts?

I could see that. But because of the styling and branding (Bravado is Dodge) its a Durango with some other mixes. GTA is quite accurate with brands, sometimes its not. The Evo (Kuruma) and Impreza WRX Sti (Sultan) are both Toyotas (Karin)

Most Chinese cars do, it’s something to do with generic design.

Is it a good TT V8?


Kinja'd!!! My citroen won't start > Thunderface
06/06/2015 at 22:35

No one knows, if its a sourced TTV8 then it probably is good. If its an in-house TTV8 it is probably shit.


Kinja'd!!! Thunderface > My citroen won't start
06/06/2015 at 22:38

I’m just imagining that, if it’s in house, it’s probably got like 250-275hp


Kinja'd!!! My citroen won't start > Thunderface

Probably some Rover-V8 esque design and two low pressure turbos.

I do like this fake horn ring that FAW has been adding to certain Hongqi models. Probably made of the same fake brushed metal plastic as late ‘90s stereo systems, but it is an interesting touch.

Only 380hp from a TTV8? Definitely in house.

Does nobody in Chinese automotive design have no ideas for themselves? Just bastardise other designers work or make very very crude copies of other manufacturers products.

The last pic suggests a bit of Compass in the proportions, which is a bad, bad thing.
