Reason why it looks like a Rolls Royce is because HongQi's chief designer is Giles Taylor, who was the chief designer for Rolls Royce from 2011 to 2018.
They were making fun of Japanese cars in the '50s.(When American cars dominated the market.) Now the kings of the USA are Japanese cars. The perception of poor quality made in China is breaking down, and they have made a rapid entry into the automobile world. They will also produce very competitive cars in the future. Auto giants must work hard if they don't want to end up like Nokia.
Chinese car makers made a stunning revolution the last years in design and innovation, electric of course! But I do not believe in a kind of up roll like Japanese or South Korean cars: not because of the quality or design or innovation, but future political problems.. you know!
But the difference is Japanese car is built to last, Chinese like to build car based on Mercedes and BMW out these etc these are not car to last but only to look good and fancy.

Chinese car manufacturer companies are doing superb job excellent work they were doing and in car market now we have choice to select car in our price range thank you china for giving us opportunity 🙏
I have the Premium spec model of this car, which I got in march. It is an excellent car with solid build quality, on par with german vehicles. The downside is the software. Hard to navigate the menus, quite a lot of bugs that make the radio unstable. Plus for having Apple car play/Android auto. Also, in general, there are a lot of confirmation sounds whenever you turn on or off things that can be a bit annoying. Some of it can of course be turned off. The best thing is that with the EV policy here in Norway, the car was only 65,000 USD, which makes it a great value.

@@tommurphy5503 I wouldn't say that. I know people said that about the Ferrari Roma looking like an Aston. I disagreed despite the similarities.

Besides, it's designed by the guy who used to design Rolls Royce so it makes sense to capitalise on his talents and history.
Hongqi is the luxury unit of First Automobile Works (FAW) group, one of China’s biggest automakers. The marque’s parent is even a joint venture partner of Japanese automaker Toyota for mainland China, Hong Kong and Macao markets.
HK and Macau don't share Toyota products with mainland China as those two cities are RHD. Most of the Japanese cars in those two markets are imported from Japan.
It’s a sad shame it’s not in the USA SHORES and not market here but if it was! You know ALL the business executive, upper management or Hollywood stars or sports or music or others will have this luxurious suv on the road for sure!!!!
