China is no copycat

I’ve always been amazed by the Chinese brands. Panasoanic, Adibass, Reedbook, Heetachi… At least, in the automobile industry, who says they do copying? Check the images below. Thanks to Andrews for sending. Update: and thanks to Gems Sty for reminding us the source.
Mercedes C vs Geely Merrie 300
Daewoo Matiz vs Chery QQ
Opel (Vauxhall) Frontera vs Landwind
Honda CRV vs Laibao SRV. And look at that logo of Laibao, isn’t that Audi copied the logo by just.. doubleing it?
Neoplan Starliner vs Zonda A9. Zonda??
Rolls-Royce Phantom vs Hongqi HQD
Smart vs Chinese Smart
Toyota Prado vs Dadi Shuttle
Nissan XTrail vs Greatwall Sing
BMW 7 vs BYD F6
Toyota Logo vs Geely Logo
China is no copycat. @ haha.nu.

Ok, this is pushing it a bit. I mean, all cars in the same category tend to look alike. You can’t tell my mom’s Subaru could be passed off as a Mercedes if you changed the decals and symbols.
April 20th, 2007 13:34
Andy, that’s just because you are so darn stupid. It’s better that you stay away from anything that has to do with cars. Try flowers instead. Even my half-blind grandmother can tell the difference between Subaru and Mercedes.
April 20th, 2007 15:33
yeah andy in fairness. if you think a subura looks the same as a merc you pretty f*ckin stupid
April 20th, 2007 16:52
I agree with Driver… If you cant tell the diffence between a Subaru and a Mercedes you need thicker glasses! Seriously.
While the Chineese cars might look close to, they will never have the soul of a Mercedes SLR or the class of a RR Phantom…

The main problem is that anything that has been reverse enginered, especially in china, especially a car will be of abysmal build quality.
The materials, ahem, “styling”, etc. are of a pathetic standard.
Chinese cars sold in the west are all laughed at by any motoring journalist or enthusiast and are dangerously old fashioned.
They are deathtraps and junk more than anything, even if they look similar expect a circus of problems underneath, only a clown would buy one!

Tyler, if you double the two circles on that symbol, you get 4…AMAZING, WE LEARNED MATH…I don’t know how you answered the “Spam Protection” Question without my help, but you managed…

The bigger problem is that they are ignoring every patent and copyright law out there and making a profit out of other people’s work.
April 21st, 2007 07:31
Gee if small-time American companies did this a law suit would be a brewin’ oh BTW Tyler can’t read is right, he must have had help for the spam protection
April 21st, 2007 11:11
the driver is SO right what kind of retard doesn’t know the difference between a subaru and a mercedes???
April 21st, 2007 11:58
Tyler you moron, where the hell do you see an Audi? Do us all a favor, the next time you want to contribute something, smash your head into your monitor, and shove your keyboard up your ass, if you still want to say something, then feel free.

Some of you must’ve shit for your brains.
Saw this?
“And look at that logo of Laibao, isn’t that Audi copied the logo by just.. doubleing it?”
Okay, you double 4 circle and you get 2? If you’ve passed your 1st grade math, then your teacher either made a big fat mistake or he/she is a pile of human waste like mr. john there.

Dang Tyler,
Are you butt hurt or what? haha.

“And look at that logo of Laibao, isn’t that Audi copied the logo by just.. doubleing it?”
I think what this means is Audi copied the Laibao’s logo by doubling it. You can’t blame people for mis-interpreting the meaning when the english is broken.
April 23rd, 2007 22:56
Well, As a Chinese decedent myself, I DO agree that they are copycats. But they ARE allowed to do it because they are not in the “patent protection union” – or whatever you call it.
By just selling it to locals in China is already a very big market to them… So what can I say?

Chinese people have no soul
April 25th, 2007 22:48
how come BMW, Mercedes, etc. have not stopped the production of these rip offs? do they simply not care? also, where are these cars being released? just in china? if so, then who cares… they are obviously lower quality and cost
April 26th, 2007 23:02
Das Logo des Laiboo SRV ist auch kopiert.
Es hat 2 Ringe und das von Audi hat 4 Ringe.

Hi.
In Thailand hießen solche Produkte gerne auch mal “real imitation”.
Aber da wurden nur Uhren gefälscht.
In unseren Branche (Zahnmedizin) gibts inzwischen auch schon Produktfälschungen. Diese werden sogar hier verkauft. Da es sich um einzelne Komponenten handelt, können diese kaum identifiziert werden. Das macht die Sache recht gefählich.

Ho
Those cars are only sold in china. That’s why the German car producers don’t complain…but there’s no real need to care about this dump of product, ’cause they can’t copy the real thang.

maybe driver doesn’t know how much the view of these chinese cars may change people minds , be sure that the chinese company knows something better than you
yeah unfortunetly they’ve got good results on this copies , because some stupid people like me may only see the view of the damn car

scheiß raub kopierer

Ich bezweifle das du die Bilder alle verwenden darfst.!

There are 2 wrong points in your listing:
The Landwind is based upon a old model of the Opel/Vauxhall Frontera. They sold the platform to the chinese.
The smart is also not copyed. Its build in china from Daimler itself. They just changed the name and the logo for better fitting into the chinese market.
May 31st, 2007 07:58
There’s another “wrong” point. The Frontera shown in the picture is neither an Opel nor a Vauxhall. It’s actually a Holden. Not that it matters as it still is the same car.
I do agree with most of the cars being ripoffs but the BYD and the Hongqui are more “inspired” by the original than blatant copies. Especially the rear of the BYD shows differences and lacks the bend in the rear side window which is a typical BMW feature.

YOU are no copycat

Why are you people slamming tyler like motormouths?
Quote: “And look at that logo of Laibao, isn’t that Audi copied the logo by just.. doubleing it?”
He simply read an oddly written sentence as “isnt that Audi. (Laibao) copied the logo by just…doubleing it?”
We know Audi’s quadruple circles but if that was what the writer meant, boy it’s quite a bad attempt at sarcasm.

“wasabi da chin chin wango sa dio fa fat choy wertyuiop lo as di fat choy dang farrt pol jobbba sa fin chin chan sdert adstrew hetrew sadert farterert het sum doy choyn ching.obala!OBALA!!!!”
I must say, person who response with such comment is always a nigger. Nigger good for nothing in this world rather than contributing high crime rate when their TNB land on a civilized land. Typical nigger. No hope. One day America will fall when the nigger reach a majority level.
April 28th, 2008 19:09
The reason they can get away with coping any and everything is because the Chinese don’t have copyright laws. And the chinese are not worried about the end product as long as it looks like the more expensive original i.e. copied mobile phones with a nonworking camera and or other features. (yes I’ve seem them)
