"Lifan-Solano" - technical characteristics and design of the next Chinese novelty

Four-door sedan "Lifan-Solano" - this is another novelty from the world's Chinese automaker "Lifan Industry Group". On the Russian market, this car came only two years ago, while the domestic sedan beat all records of popularity. Successfully proven "Lifan-Solano", the technical characteristics of which were appreciated by many domestic car owners, consistently finds all new buyers. However, what is the secret of the popularity of the "Chinese"?

Appearance

Outside, the novelty makes a pretty solid impression. Its exterior, although it does not contain sportiness and aggression, but without the attention of the public such a car clearly will not remain. Despite the fact that "Lifan-Solano" is positioned as a "budgetary", its appearance is comparable with the prestigious business-class sedans. The chrome grille, impressive lighting technology and a solid bumper are the main features of the Chinese novelty. However, in the profile, all statements about the business class disappear somewhere. If you look at Lifan from another angle, then it does not make any impression of solidity. This is the glorious Chinese technology. By the way, many experts say that the external appearance of "Lifan-Solano" (technical specifications as well) was copied from the famous "Bumer" 3-series. However, because of the lack of "raisings" in the design of the Chinese machine (as it was with the "BMW"), it is not necessary to talk about plagiarism.

It is worth noting that "Lifan-Solano" - this is one of the few models of the Chinese car industry, which has a decent interior design and the highest level of assembly. Inside we are greeted by a solid leather lining of light tones, stylish inserts on the panel board and a pleasant torpedo surface. Yes, the quality of materials here can not be reproached. And what is hidden under the hood of the sedan "Lifan-Solano"?
