A luxurious interior with leather and wood, and even the floor mats look good. Huge touch screen in the center console. Start button hiding behind the steering wheel. Gear knob in a different kind of wood. Steering wheel looks a tad too simple compared to the rest of the place.

White leather is classy.

The Lifan 820 will be available with three four-cylinder petrol engines: a 1.8, a 2.0 turbo, and a 2.4. The first two engines are developed by Lifan in close cooperation with Ricardo, a large British automotive engineering firm. The 2.4 is sourced from Mitsubishi, a classic engine in China that powers zillions of cheap sedans, SUV’s, and pickup trucks from local Chinese automakers.

Large taillights and the exhaust pipes are hanging a bit too low, but otherwise a nice looking ass on a nice looking car, surely the best looking Lifan so far.

  1. The grey and synthetic-looking wood grain console, and door arm rests, spoil an otherwise nice looking interior. They are a mismatch with that real wood grain shift knob. I do however like the upholstery puffs which I have not seen for some time now.

  2. Ford? Look at the feont. Ford own Aston Martin, so they use the Aston-shaped front, and I think this is a good look-a-ike. The car could be a Ford Mondeo. It’s okay by me.
