I like the Geely GT and Panda. Nice designs.

C’mon SGP, Li Shufu deserves your capping of his name. He’s a man of extraordinary vision and tenacity. Even if he does some time cry about the “unfair” competition. He’s making automotive history as I write.
Yes, this is indeed an impressive lineup.
But “Gleagle” is as tacky sounding as Chery’s “Rely”

You would think they can afford an English consultant or two. These names are just killing them.

One can only hope that Geely Eagle is the correct guess – can you imagine Geely attempting to conquer the western world with a car called the “Gleagle”? Urrmmm…

For that matter the Englon?

The Chinese still have a lot to learn about transliteration, etc.

I think “Gleagle” means “Global Eagle” rather than Geely Eagle.

I like that GV515. Is that a copy of anything? What happened to all the great concepts from last year? I thought some of them actually showed up in the flesh at the auto show. Actually, seems like one is the GC515.

I concur with the copying; what’s with that stupid RR copy with one seat? Absolutely ridiculous. And honestly, what’s with the horrid model names. GV### is hardly a memorable name.

I like most of these…except for the pickup, which looks great, but is basically a carbon copy of the Honda. I don’t mind ugly Chinese cars, but please stop with the knock offs – they are NOT helping.

I like the pick-up, but the important question is: how many watermelons will it carry?

OK……….the Eagle electric concept looks VERY uncomfortable to sit in (those seats…….ugh) – but the Panda crossover actually looks pretty damn cool!! Here’s my question – WHAT HAPPENED to the CE????? Geely is REALLY stupid if they throw that design out – that is a GREAT looking car!! The GT is cool, the pickup truck reminds me of the Honda Ridgeline, and the Rolls Royce ripoff???? Uh…….no. Let’s see what they end up showing at Shanghai – but so far I’m not all that impressed yet.

Most of these pictures look like something off Second Life or GTA. It will be interesting to see how they actually translate into real metal. I still see very strong influences from other designs mind you!

Interesting Lineup

but what happens to the current lineup ?

I hope the words ” Demolish ” ” Genocide ” and ” Torture ” are used to describe what they are going to do with the current lineup.

I like many of these .. but I will save my breath for the production version.

Are we gonna see all of these in the next Shanghai Auto Show ?

and Ash, what about Maudi ? ( Maple ) no more citroen zxs ugly cars ? They just re-launched it here ..
