Pics of production version of Jianghuai hfc 7240:

Whoa I think they are taking the whole star badge thing a bit too far (five point star vs 3 point star). That said this seems like a really good looking car, even if it is a knock off. Any word on what kind of drivetrain it features? FWD? 4 cylinder?

It looks nice, but what is it exactly? (What is it counterfeited from, a
Ford 500?). The logo goes waaay overboard, it would look 100 times nicer
if they made it look more like 大 , the character it's based on [what is it
in Chinese, in Japanese it can be pronounced as "Dai" or "Oki" (it depends)
,meaning 'big'].

So now Byd is imitating Lexus instead of BMW, great.

Hate to say, BYD always do such shameful copy on appearance, but their qulity is not bad, so lots of people just buy them.

MG-7 & MG-7L (Long wheelbase)

Wow, look at the gap between sheet metals and bumpers. As bad as old GMs. Nanjing clearly doesn't know how to assemble cars properly.

That huge gap between the bumper's upper edge and front fender is also a problem on the Roewe model. It seems to be more severe on the right side than the left. In any case I'm betting it can produce some irritating wind noises at 100kph.

 

[mgrovernut]

..it was designed that way I think. But it doesn't cause wind noise.

Btw anyone else think that Geely looked like a modern day Edsel?

 

[stabilized]

i would say there is a big room of improvement on the workmanship...

it's still rough the quality...

In Chinese 大 is pronounced 'da', and also 'dai' (but very rarely). It also means big in Chinese.

Thanks for the nice photos Raul....
Looks like Geely is doing a nice job with the Grace Manganese taxi. The boot gaps could be a bit better though and in the next go around, I hope they will consider eliminating the painted beading, between front bumper and fender. It's both costly to install and causes headaches during and after assembly.
Does the VM badge refer to VM Motori of Italy? Is it one of their diesels?

 

[dragin]

..Btw anyone else think that Geely looked like a modern day Edsel?

Yes, I agree Rovernut.
That updated Beauty Leopard fascia does resemble a bulky, overweight version of the Edsel. Seems that Geely has been good at outsourcing for powertrain and chassis help but it really needs help with body design. Any thoughts on this?
btw I'm not referring to the taxi here; it's fine and in a class of its own...
