The D50 has become a rather sleek looking vehicle, without too much bling and with a certain ‘dignity’ that is all too often missing on native Chinese design. It could almost be a… Saab:

Beijing Auto says the Shenbao D50 is based on their new M-trix platform,which is based on the platform of the old Saab 9-3. Beijing Auto Industry Corporation (BAIC), the mother of Beijing Auto, bought the platform from GM in 2009.
