And just because we know you're quite curious about the upcoming 2010 Beijing Auto Show, here are some pictures of the models that China's Great Wall Motors is preparing to unveil. For the record, any information we could pull from the rubble of Google's translation can be found below, so let's just call anything read beyond this point...assumptions.
1) Ling Ao (small, 5-door hatch), highlights include: 1.3/1.5 liter VVT aluminum engines (68 kW, 77 kW ; 118, 138 Nm), ABS, and an Alarm System.
2) Great Wall Tengyi C30 a basic, average-looking small sedan.
3) Great Wall Teng Yi C50, an interesting-looking B-class sedan with a 95-kW turbocharged/180 Nm 1.5 liter engine, a CVT, and something about Seiko and Zoran (whatever that mean, I'm intrigued). It also has a tire pressure monitoring system and ESP. For some weird reason, I want this to be good.
4) Great Wall Tengyi C70 mid-size sedan, an oddly attractive with heated seats "with ventilation and lumbar support functions, automatic dual-zone air conditioning, ACC adaptive cruise control, keyless entry systems, interactive media interface system OOS." Also, it may come with rear/all wheel drive and 100 kW / 200 Nm.
5) Great Wall Haval H5 Zhi Zun (which they even built with a Euro-centric face to appease people who can't accept Chinese design's superiority), a B-Class SUV with "GPS navigation, electric sunroof , the main driving six-way power adjustable seats, DVD entertainment system, visual reversing system with voice reminders."
6) Great Wall Haval SC60, relatively good-looking (probably mid/full-size) SUV that feature a hybrid engine, full-time AWD, and a 6-speed automative transmission.
7) Great Wall Haval M3, an overly-creased SUV that features 4-wheel drive, a 4-speed sport automatic transmission, and a 77 kW 1.5 liter engine that makes 138 Nm.
8) Great Wall Haval H6 (B-Class urban SUV): A not-ugly city SUV powered by a turbocharged 2.0 liter engine, driven by a 6-speed automatic transmission, and something that "allows you to surf blossoms". Whatever that means, it's cool.
9) Great Wall Feng Jun 5 (pickup): It looks like a Kizashi/Jetta mixed with a Frontier; not unattractive, but it should be pointed out. Other than that, "work, life, multi-faceted helper." Yup, that describes a pickup.
Let's all wait for the live pics, shall we?
