Chery S16




Sure it's weird looking. Really weird.

But I have to admit I admire Chery for actually producing such an "original" design.
The concept they showed a couple of years ago looked like something out of a comic book. And it looks like the production model will look exactly the same.
At least someone are pushing the envelope, and that's pretty refreshing to see.

It has bloodlines of the Ford/Merkur XR4Ti
and maybe even the new Fiat 500.

Original design? Hardly. I've seen cars that look like this countless times at numerous Tokyo Auto shows.

I agree Vince. It's odd, but it's no copy and is in a way very cool and cute. Kudos to Chery for doing something different - the major players are too stoic aymore and we need new blood. Happy New Year, BTW.

Oh boy, I sure do hope it comes here to the USA! Oh please oh please oh please!

Yeah, It'll play great with a honkin SUV or a semi at about 80 on the freeway. At least the body collectors won't have to look for the big pieces after the crash -- they'll all be contained in this tin can of a car.

How long have everybody been designing cars..50 years? more? A pretty good headstart. Is there nothing being almost the same between Japanese, American, European and Korean cars? Ask yourself lol.
