BMW joins Mercedes against Chinese copies

After Mercedes is trying to stop Chinese car producer Shuanghuan from a Smart clone on to the European market, BMW also has a problem with the Chinese. Because Shuanghuan is planning on introducing the CEO SUV at the Frankfurt Motor Show, but BMW is planning on taking legal action against them, because the Chinese SUV is a copy of the BMW X5, and BMW won’t accept that. And they are right, I mean, c’mon, it was impossible for the Chinese to try and emerge their car industry, but that’s not the way to do it. And from 1,6 billion Chinese there’s got to be at least one that knows how to design an original car.

    How ridiculous fanatic can you get?
    This Chinese car doesn’t look like A BMW or Mercedes at all. It looks more like a Ford Explorer, a mix of most X cars.
    Many known brands copy each others, European, Japanese and Korean.
    I just wonder how it handles?
    But hey let the Chinese and Indians come with their better priced cars.

    Those who worries about others have a bad conscience anyway. Over priced and too much profit! It’s good they are going through this crisis and do some more brain cracking, less profit and produce some nice cars with all gadgets etc.

    If you think I’m wrong, don’t have your products made in China! Do it yourself!!!
    70% or more products in your house is made in China, because you decided the difference. It’s a moral thing.

    I’m sure when the Indians and Chinese sells a car with everything in it for half or 1/3 of the price you will be the 1st one to buy it.

    Just welcome the competition and have cheap and good transport.
    The government is not doing a bloody thing, accept stealing our money by officially taxing us.
