The Chinese have shown a cheap copy of Land Rover with a powerful engine. Photo

The new SUV with the inappropriately long name BYD Fang Cheng Bao Leopard 5 is a new car that, according to the Chinese tradition, copies foreign models. In this case, Land Rover and Ford.

CarNewsChina reports on the novelty. Externally, the new BYD Fang Cheng Bao Leopard 5 resembles the Ford Bronco and Land Rover Defender models. However, it will be much cheaper than the latter.

Although it is not without exotic, but standard for Chinese cars, and design wonders. In the case of the Leopard 5, we are talking about unusual stampings on the doors. They have absolutely no function and are "painted" only to give this secondary SUV some personality.

The powerplant of the new BYD Fang Cheng Bao Leopard 5 is powerful. The hybrid model is equipped with an internal combustion engine and an electric motor, which together produce 650 hp and allow it to accelerate to 100 km/h in 4 seconds.

In an exclusively electric mode (according to the manufacturer), this BYD can cover 125 km. The total range is 1200 km.
