Brilliance seem to hit the market right every time, first it was their BS6 - Probably the first good looking Chinese car ever made, secondly it was the smaller BS4; a runaway success. The Coupe seems to have found itself a niche market, but sales of that dont appear to be approaching critical mass yet, on the other hand, the Brilliance FRV will make up for any losses on the Coupe.
According to Shenzhen Automotive World News, total orders for the Brilliance FRV in the first month have reached 6000 cars.
The manual versions of the FRV will be delivered to customers in August, but those who opted for a manual version may well have to wait until September. Demend is reportedly greater than Brilliance’ can produce, leaving some customers with no choice but to wait. The base model of the FRV starts at 60,680rmb, which no doubt entices many younger customers who are on a budget.
The FRV is based on an entirely new platform from Brilliance, and will no doubt be a great seller in the coming months.
As for China Car Times, we think we’ll wait for the rumoured FRV GT - a 1.8 Turbo assisted model.
