An attractive design, great work especially on the C-pillar where windows meet.

Not a bad design but FAW is another company, like Dongfeng, that is going to have to bite the bullet and spend some serious money developing its own platforms if it want to join the big league.
The rear quarter window trim and shape and the rear window shape look almost like a ripoff of the Infiniti EX. The tailights and rear bumper are a total ripoff of the Subaru Legacy Outback. The rest of the car has horrible styling.
