BAIC (Chinese company) showed up to the 2013 Shanghai Motor Show with a pair of concepts, the BAIC concept 500 (above) and BAIC concept 900 (right).
The BAIC Concept 500, whose skirts you can read Beijing BJ20 (shameless copy of the Toyota Land Cruiser BJ20), shows the idea of a pure off-road classic lines “to the Jeep” with more presence than termination. And the car is nothing more than a solid model, deposited without unnoticed, not even a compelling press release him. Think BAIC invest in creating an SUV of this aspect to your local market? Now that there’s Jeep and other similar cars work, could fit that possibility.
It’s BAIC Concept 900 is radically different. With a grille that looks copied from some Mercedes-Benz as the A-Class, and, in fact, that is mounted on the platform of a Mercedes-Benz E-Class Not many days ago that we told you that Mercedes-Benz was seriously considering licensing their platforms BAIC disuse, and the BAIC Concept 900 might be the first example of this.
Would be a sedan mounted on the existing E-Class (the year he has left and a half long commercial life), and intended for the local Chinese market, as an economic alternative to the models of the star. At least, as BAIC copy the idea of the calender, it does its business partner … Right?
