The Besturn B90 is heading into production soon, or so we hear, but in the meantime the Mazda based sedan is testing down in the sunny climes of Hainan rather than the frigid tundra of FAW’s hometown in Changchun. Rumor has it the B90 will be using a 2.0L and 2.5L engine from Mazda, and will come packed with technology, although this model is firmly aimed at government procurement lists and wont likely find mega sales from personal buyers owing to the price v’s brand dilemma, i.e. why buy a Chinese car at 150,000rmb and rising when you can get something from Mazda or Ford for the same price?
