Another new cheap sedan from Geely. This is the Geely Englon SC3 which is exactly the same car as the Geely GLEagle GC3. Both cars are based on the Geely GLEagle Ziyoujian which in turn is based on the Geely Ziyouyuan. That is five cars from the same size on the same platform looking almost the same. Geely clearly took a good look at Volkswagen.

The Geely Englon SX5 is a small crossthingy based on the Geely Englon SC5-RV which is a crossthingy as well. Geely clearly believes one can never sell enough different cars.

Published on April 9, 2010 by Tycho de Feyter
Geely is busy getting a controlling stake in Manganese Bronze, the maker of the iconic London Taxi. That car is made in China as well under the Englon name (formerly Shanghai Maple Auto). But Geely clearly thinks the ancient machine has had its days and will bring this totally new TXN to the Beijing Auto Show. These first pictures are nicely photoshopped in London, Englon meaning England London.
