I tell you chinese car companies really have the dumbest naming convention.
BEI YAN DIU
SEAL
DOLPHIN
ORA GOOD CAT???
Who the heck would want to be seen driving anything with such a name on it?

QUOTE(FlamingFox @ Apr 23 2025, 12:35 PM) What's wrong with having animal names like BYD Dolphin, Seal, Sealion? Just ocean creatures although the cars don't resemble them. Nothing wrong of course, until your entire lineup starts sounding like an aquarium's cast list. BYD Dolphin, Seal, Sealion—what’s next? BYD Jellyfish EV? The Crabby Cruiser? The Flowerhorn GT? It's like they didn’t name a car—they adopted a pet.Ford Mustang, VW Beetle, Perodua Kancil, Fiat Panda, Dodge Viper ok only. Then again, we have cars that don't have animal names but have certain attributes: Vios Dugong, Persona Lipas, Civic Ketam.  At least when Ford named a car Mustang, it screamed horsepower and American muscle. |
