You’ve probably seen somebody with a fake pair of Gucci shoes, or pretend Oakley sunglasses. Only the most oblivious of humans cannot spot the differences between what’s fake and what’s authentic. The same can be applied to cars. And if we had to guess, China’s Dongfeng brand would like people to pretend its upcoming crossover is a Cadillac SRX.
This still unnamed Dongfeng crossover is actually some sort of mutt featuring the chassis of the last generation Kia Sorento, a Nissan 2.0L four cylinder, and of course, knock-off Cadillac looks. As our friends from Autoblog put it: “yeesh.”

oh lordy….
Saw it on Top Gear, they’re knocking off alot of cars.
Wow this is bad
They grafted a different fascia onto what was a perfectly good-looking previous-generation Kia Sorento. Wow…the knock-off engineers will stop at nothing, it seems…
Even their Kia Sorrento was a knock off.
No, only the chassis from the KIA Sorento was fitted in.
Another knock off is another Cadillac, that one being from the Shaanxi Victory truck.
