At the Beijing Car Show, the new Beijing Jeeps were unveiled, the Brave Warrior which is meant for military use plus a newer updated version of the original 2020, except this one is called the ‘Gladiator’ (角斗士 - jiao dou zhan)

The Brave Warrior:

China Car Times commented on the Brave Warrior before, but once you get up close to it, you can clearly see that this jeep is no where near as good as the original 2020 - it feels too plasticy, especially when compared to the combined Soviet and American technology that went into the first 2020. The doors feel like they could be ripped off by hand never mind bullets or missiles. I’d rather drive a Citroen 2CV into battle than this, at least I’d feel safer.
