Ahead of a planned debut at Auto China later this month Chinese manufacturer Dongnan have released a few teaser sketches of a new concept they plan to show. Previously Dongnan have been collaborating with Chrysler and Mitsubishi on manufacturing, but now they are looking to go it alone.
It is well known that the Chinese manufacturers base many of their designs on european models (see here & here), and we are sure you are readying your fingers on the comments section ready to voice your disapproval of yet another copy so let WCF save you the trouble. Last year Seat announced new C/D segment models along with a couple of sketches and judging by the similarities it appears they are trying to beat Seat to the punch by quickly releasing their own concept, see the image below.

It's not overly hard to create a new design for a car! Hyundai/Kia started out reskinning existing Mitsubishi-based mechanicals and from that have become a top 10 automaker, even India's TATA Motors are ahead by having unique designs (especially evident with the Nano and their concept cars)
Come on China, lift your game!
