a Range Rover Evoque? The Landwind X7 Clone is Four Times Cheaper -
Do you
rember the patent images of the Range Rover Evoque Chinese copy, the landwind
X7? Fresh spy shots of the SUV have appeared recently and it seems the Chinese
are not bothered at all with the reactions their copy has provoked.
It is
because the final product looks exactly like the car in the patent photos –
i.e. almost identical to the Range Rover EvoqueBecause of the X7 is expected to
arrive in dealerships later this month, it means it will beat the real Chinese
-made Range Rover Evoque to the market by at least two months.
Furthermore,
the cabin is also inspired by the Evoque’s, although the Chinese manifested
more restraint in copying the interior and put in a little more effort to
differentiate it from the original.
This
landwind X7 will be priced from 120,000 yuan, which is the equivalent of about
$19,500. That makes it a lot cheaper than the imported Range Rover Evoque,
which starts at 528,000 yuan ($85,665) in China. The locally made Evoque will
be priced from 425,000 yuan when it launches later this year.
Based on a shortened variant of the platform that
also underpins the Landwind X8, the Evoque clone is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged
four-cylinder petrol engine producing 190hp and 250Nm (184 lb-ft) of torque,
offered with either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic, do you want
to get one?
