I'd be more concerned about safety.

That is beautiful inside out. I wonder how close it is to the ones that come out of their factory if it's suppose to compete only in the Civic/Focus/Corolla-segment. Then there's that small factor of build quality as well.

It sure does look impressive- and quite original (though the interior has shades of BMW) Safety would be my top concern with any chinese car though.

I am guessing that a big chunk of the work had been done before Rover went under, as they have been working on a replacement for the ageing Rover 45 for a long time. I think SAIC retains Ricardo in the UK to do design and engineering work, so that would also explain how this seems more Western than Chinese.

Roewe 550 tossed with fresh 7 series interior with a hint of Passat CC, dressed with Nissan maxima sauce on a C5 Citreon base, mixed to your liking. Enjoy

Strange pictures, I am pretty sure they are all renders with lots of photoshop editing afterwards. That being said it looks nice, everyone should just stop trying to think of who they copied and reserve their judgment to see what it will actually look like.

pscs the safety should be good as it uses a shortened 75 chasis which was extremely strong and held up well in crash tests. i think its a good looking piece of design, the interior is very bmw but i doubt in the quality department.
