The Roewe 350 is a car that SAIC are struggling to keep under wraps, with new spy shots of the car being spotted out at least once a week. The latest pictures give a clear indication as to what the final interior will look like once it has gone into production:

SAIC seem to have worked closely with their partner, GM, to understand exactly how to design an interior that appeals to the Chinese public. This car is likely be a massive seller for Roewe, and will likely be priced lower than the current Buick Excelle, but higher than than the Aveo, both of which are very very popular cars in the PRC.

Engines are supposed to be naturally aspirated 1.5VCTL and 1.8DVVTL models, there is also news of the cars getting 7 speed DSG gearboxes which would be a massive selling point at this price level. A hatchback version of the 350, codenamed AP12, is set to launch at the end of 2011.
