The military version at a ceremony. Price for a base-army Xialong is 1 million yuan as well, but that is without armor and machine-guns. When the civilian version will be listed is yet unsure, but I guess Xiaolong Auto will bring something to the Beijing Auto Show in April.

No doubt there will be a market for it, rich Chinese car buyers are still snapping up Hummers from the US via grey import channels. 1 million actually seems on the cheap side, Xiaolong better ask some more money otherwise the rich might think it is a workers car.
