The more I look at it the more I think it looks like a stretched Honda Civic. This is not a bad thing.

Looks like a B*M 5-series hatch/coupe from the side/rear to me

As an ex TR6 owner who considered the MG to be an inferior marque, I think seeing MG6 on a derivative of the 75 also makes the MG6 inferior......

If the Chinese want to make a successor to the 75, consult British designers. An example of how we Brits get it right is the Rover 200/400 (box shape), the Honda version just never had the class.
