This is the Besturn B90

---

Okay, between me and you, the Besturn range of cars are a bit boring, further more its quite obvious that Ital Design sold the same drawings to Dongfeng Auto for their S30 models. So what’s a car company to do? Well if you have Mazda as your partner the most obvious solution would be to borrow some of their styling, thus the B90 concept was born, a mixture of Mazda and Besturn.

FAW’s goal for this model is to enter into the government procurement list and also have a car priced in the sub 300k range, its 300k and above models are the Hong Qi (Red Flag models) that are based on the Toyota Crown platform.

The Chinese government including all of its branches – military and civil, spend billions of RMB per year on acquring new cars, in recent years there has been a real push to get away from Audi’s and into Chinese branded cars, models such as the B90 are expected to be at the front of the wave.

The Concept will be unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show on Tuesday.
