Well , I am just transporting a discussion from a local forum to here ,
No one has ever mentioned the roots of the Chery A5 , while some said its original design with original chassis , some others said its still the SEAT toledo chassis with new new exterior .
However on that forum , some ppl noticed something , and I am not really sure if its the case , but can you compare these two pictures ( Note I am not saying that this is a copy of anything , I am just asking for your opinion ) :
no they are not the same car
well its not a DIRECT copy , but its VERY inspiring eh ?
The first one is the CheryA5/Speranza A55
the 2nd one is the ehem :
Chevrolet Optra / Daewoo Nubira / Suzuki Forenza / Daewoo Lacetti ( hatchback ) / Buick Excelle
EDIT :
More data :
GM optra : Chery A5
Wheel base : 2664 mm 2600 mm
Length : 4510 4552
Width : 1725 1750
the numbers are very close , but I dont think thats a clue to anything , I guess any car of that size ( Elantra / Mazda3 / Corolla ) Will have similar or close dimensions , but still I am doubty about this car , and also narrower wheelbase , yet wider body ?
