i have no respect for china's car. they only know how to copy and paste, then produce rojak. their cars bear no identity, no fixed design cue.
haha.. i went to china months ago n surprised so many honda n toyota look-alike.. even bmw and audi look alike aso got..

copy and inspiration are 2 different things as one may be inspired from its competitor's design and produces something similar. rebadge is also ok because its part of the marketing strategy.
as for china, 80% copy and 20% degraded it. try google it, and you will see fake version of mercedes, crv, rolls royce, terios, x5... and they have no imagination for their own original designs.
i dun mind paying cheap price for many china goods. but for cars, well, you pay what you get, good luck

ya.. copy is u take the other manufacturer's design n claimed its yours without any proper licence.. inspiration is normal in arts esp in designing.. rebadge is ok.. (naza cars like ria n citra is a rebadge is it?) ya.. most china cars they copy only.. so sorry to say but the quality sucks.. coz they are trying to provide something similar in a more affordable way.. haha..

it's 1 of the member opinion only ... not paultan himself... plus the info he provided are wrong... wish 1.8 only produce 132PS , not 136PS .. and the weight for 1.8 wish is 1300 kg , not 1400++kg
although i never tried fetching 7 adults , but the power for 1.8 is definitely sufficient for 5 adults , no problem... tested before.

yeah.. i read that b4.. commentors there memang lidat one.. haha.. but i ride in my friend's wish once.. 7 adults.. me sitting backmost row. very crampy but it moves swiftly..
