I wonder if there is much of this cars styling taken from the planed "95" model or maybe the mk3 "75" facelift etc.

Interior is a drastic change mind you, seats look really comfortable!

Also look at the amount of cubby holds, and are they cup holders down by the hand brake that are hidden also?

You know the odd thing, imagine that coming out a decade ago instead of the facelift model compared to the 2004 Mondeo / Vectra / French offerings...

Something very VW Phaeton about it, which is no surprise as thats exactly what the chinese market want.

I was wondering what the '750 Hybrid' was about till I saw the photos of those silly DRLs. It is of course a Roewe/Audi hybrid, a Roewaudie.

No i still think the exterior look much more bland. It has no road presence anymore, the grill doesnt compensate for the awful, cheap looking lights. Totally eurobox dull. It could be a Passat, and thats the worst insult to a once beautifully designed car.

I dont 'hate' the back end, but it no longer flows properly. It looks like 3 cars welded together, not one continuous car.

The side profile is really nasty. It looks even cheaper and even less continuous than in the previous images. The interior has almost no storage space and in terms of quality looks like an early Daewoo that someone attacked with wood effect sticky backed plastic.
