Who cares about intellectual property?

Shanghai Auto Show: Huanghai Auto NCV - Two Copyright Violations For The Price Of One!

Astounding. The lack of respect for intellectual property in China is absolutely astounding.

So that's a Torr350 or an RXent?

Maybe the 350ent or TorrRX?

 

[skip0110]

I like it.

According to what we could suss out from the description, this vehicle is powered by an engine that generates 85 kW (103 horsepower), 170 Nm (125 pound-feet of torque), so we can’t help but wonder if it has a small diesel underneath its hood.

Is that what you like?

Not only that, they're made it a horrible clash of lines.

 

[Keichi Tsuchiya]

Hey! Ours doesn't come with hot models! Unfair...I want theirs instead.

 

[skip0110]

The front of it looks better than the front of a RX350 and the back of it looks better than the back of a Torrent.

So I like it.

This is why Communism does not work...it stifles originality.

 

[Pupik]

It looks like one of my demented dreams about work.

Except, I get old ladies with coupons, not model-types with go-go boots.

Well it is China... look at all the stuff they Rip off.. ahem, I mean knock off. xD :cough: iPod Nano :cough:

Seriously though, all or most of US manufacturing is going over there so they have the ability to do anything probably and for cheap. I don't know if it's a good thing or not.

LOL

speaking of intellectual property, check these out

I'm sure the similarities are only skin-deep. A lot of Americans probably wouldn't be caught dead in the interiors of those. I'm sure quality is super-low and safety little considered. Oh well, we won't see them over here. And it's nothing new. I'm sure there are other Chinese cars that look suspiciously like something else. The Russians used to do it with our airplanes.

That's not actually why communism doesn't work.

 

[TopHat]

I wanna see GM and Toyota team up and get on their asses.

 

[Dougboy]

This is why Communism does not work...it stifles originality.

Communism doesn't work economically because the fact that the government is in complete control of all production and everyone gets the same no matter how hard they work or how lazy they are. Thus the incentive to work decreases dramatically. The country's wealth goes down, shortages occur, no inventions are produced (as the government would steal them away anyway, leaving no incentive) and the economy eventually collapses.

And yes, you did forget the sarcasm tag

 

[Joey D]

You guys seriously couldn't figure it was sarcastic?

 

[YSSMAN]

Thats outstanding. Has someone been watching the lawsuit meeter with GM and Toyota against these companies lately?

Plus, I've never even heard of this company. I'm used to hearing about things from Geeley or ShanghaiAuto...

I like the one that copied the Audi logo.
