If you wanted a car with that much presence and luxury, and didn't want it to be an absolute hunk of s***, that looks like it was designed 50 years ago by blind Mongolian peasants, you would just buy a Rolls Royce Phantom.

There's patriotism and then there is stupidity.

Looks like the Chinese Spys went into the bins of

Audi for the Gear surround
Toyota Kluger factory for the Start button and the Knee bolster
Caddilac for the steering wheel
and the bins of the $2 shops for the rest

For that $ id expect the interior to look better than my FG.
