The big news on various motor websites, both Chinese and Foreign, today are BYD’s plans to make their very own Cayenne look-a-like:

This could be a little bit of Photoshop fun, or it could be the real thing. However, we doubt a 2.0L 4 Cylinder engine would be able to move anything thats as big as a Cayenne.
Ash came to China at 18 on a whim and never left. Some 10 years later he collected a degree and a family along the way and now focuses his time on watching the Chinese car industry develop. He has witnessed the market change from being minor backyard market in to the world's biggest and most important market for all car manufacturers.

Hi Ash.
The picture is clearly a photoshop.
The page is clearly from an official internal BYD paper, I have seen these booklets before (and that is really alarming). They expect to introduce the car in september 2010, selling it for 100.000 yuan, equipped with a 2-litre engine.
What to make from it! It will be awfull.
byd cant be that funny,after hving be a follower of their propress over the years i know they will never instal;l a 2 litre engine to power such a heavy vehicle if they do it will definately damage their reputationin the long run.
I pray that this is a joke…
Maybe it will be smaller and more car like. Is BYD the one that makes the SCEO X5 look a like?
wow… they have managed to make the Cayenne even UGLIER!!
hahaha
seriously, are people within BYD f-ing retarded? i just dont understand.
BYD needs to understand that knowing how to use Photoshop is not the same as designing.
This is not even funny. BYD is either fucked up in the head or some retard on the net pleasuring himself with the photoshop.
I don’t think Porsche even has the time to bother about BYD copying their models. Automobiles manufactured in the PRC are not even street legal on many nations. Unless this “T6″ is a success, which i highly doubt it will ever be, we don’t need to worry about BYD.
Heck, even Chinese auto manufacturers copy cars made in SOUTH KOREA. Even South Korea’s auto industry does not depend on copy cars to thrive.
