Chinese automaker BAIC will unveil the C80K concept at the Beijing auto show on Monday. The sedan hints at a potential competitor to the long-wheel-base versions of the Audi A6, BMW 5 series and Mercedes Benz E class, which currently dominate the luxury-car segment in China.

The concept was designed by the design and engineering companies Fioravanti of Italy and Eastone, based in Shanghai, China.

The sedan, which would become BAIC's flagship if built, is 5203mm (205 inches) long and 1915mm (75.39 inches) wide.

The concept is distinctive for its lack of a B-pillar and its rear-opening suicide doors, a feature currently offered only on Rolls-Royce models.

A possible successor to old '59 Beijing CB4 I would say.

You know there is still one CB4 left? The car is stored (with about 100 other Chinese veterans) in the FAW ' Warehouse' (closed for visitors) in Changchun.

The sedan is called Beijing C90 (instead of C80K):

Really, C90? That's interesting. Doesn't look a lot like the C90 they revealed a week ago:

It seems to me just a 2002 Mercedes Benz E-class (W211) with a different front.
