LYNK & CO - Geely's new automotive brand
 
This is crazy.. I thought Geely was knock off of Japanese & European cars but now they're making their own cars.

Lynk & Co

Geely bought Volvo and the new Volvos aren't bad at all. They want to make the brand as gwailo as possible, so made up a weird English name Lynk & Co.

but there are still many copy cats in China...lol check out the 2017 shanghai autoshow

Exactly my thinking who in the right mind would create or buy any car created by this knockoff crap

Lol I would not feel safe driving one of those knock offs. Wheels will probably fall off or car would split in half in a collision

They copy the design. They didn't replace the body panel with styrofoam...

These copy cats are very popular in China. And like others have said Chinese car manufacturing has improve a lot and is not as crap as people seem to think.

For majority of people in china. Chinese made car is all they can afford. As you can see Chinese car manufacturers are doing very good. It's a almost win by default situation when all import cars are tax to the roof.

To be fair Japanese car brands started out copying design too.
