At least 3 more China makes will be coming to Singapore in the first quarter of 2008
From Great Wall, distributed by Dynasty Automobiles, a subsidiary of Alpine Group, which currently sells Chevrolets - Hover 2.4 (crossover), Peri (hatchback) and Cowry (MPV)
From Chana, distributed by TTS Chana Automobiles, a subsidiary of Teo Tian Seng Group, which also sell Fiats - Benni (hatchback), Joice (MPV) and commerical vehicles. Chana is a licensed manufacturer for Suzuki
From Zoete, distributed by multi-Chinese brand agent Group Exklusiv - a compact SUV like the Perodua Kembara -
All look-alikes...
The 1st car resembles a Toyota Fortuner
2nd car looks like a Nissan Latio...3rd resembles a Hyundai Matrix...
Doesn't the chinese car industry come up wif anything ORIGINAL?? -
Group Exklusiv should get zoe tay as a spokesperson for their zoete brand of cars
-
actually the 2nd car is a clone of the fiat panda....

let the crash tests & customer reviews speak for themselvesOriginally posted by snorezzz:Thanks for the info. I hope they are of good quality brands. -
already the 1st 2 cars are clones....esp the 2nd one which really looks like a fiat panda onyl with a "redesigned" front grille
-
I wonder if the LTA review safety specs for these brands before letting them in ....
you don't see such brands in say, north america cos they can't pass safety ...
Singaporean lives are cheaper issit ? ...

I see that in terms of design maturity, these are now where Hyundai were about 12 years ago. They're trying to be more modern but they lack cohesiveness and a proper design language.
Yes, I'm moving away from the 'this looks like a' judgments and towards proper critiques. -
QC not? These kind of China made cars have a reputation...
-
i don't want to be driving a tin can on wheels, regardless of whether they are cheap or not. my life more precious.
heard that their sound proofing is lousy, china cars -

Yes, that is quite true.Originally posted by farky:actually the 2nd car is a clone of the fiat panda.... -
I'd take a look at their Euro NCAP ratings first...

they want to make up their minds or not?
i thought they want to increase the Singapore population?
with these death-traps on wheels, the Singapore population will drop dramatically

We should enforce a minimum NCAP safety rating. LTA better wake up their idea.
-
I was just thinking..don't we have those? Like a local version of the NCAP or something?Originally posted by LazerLordz:We should enforce a minimum NCAP safety rating. LTA better wake up their idea.
Anyway maybe these cars ensure other car makes drivers are safe

Then it's bye-bye to some Protons, Perodua and Naza as well...even the current Chevrolet Aveo and Chrysler Voyager. The Euro NCAP is limited as it doesn't test supercars or models that aren't sold in Europe.Originally posted by LazerLordz:We should enforce a minimum NCAP safety rating.

I suspect this is a ploy by the government to attract Chinese from China to drive it. And most likely they will end up charred.
