MG's sister brand
Baojun has imitated the design of the second-gen Range Rover Evoque's tail
lamps. For the uninitiated, the MG Hector sold in India is basically a rebadged
Baojun 530.
Baojun is basically a low-cost brand. To sell
upper-level SUVs, it has created 'RS' sub-brand. Its first premium model was
the RS-5, a compact SUV (C-SUV). The test mule seen here could be of a mid-size
Baojun RS SUV.
The front grille gets a matrix grille design which has similar
styling elements as the Baojun RS-5. The new SUV is expected to have a same
split-type headlight setup like the Baojun RS-5, and albeit not purely visible,
but two chrome-plated strips make way into the upper headlights as seen in the
picture above. Also, the test mule can be seen kitted with a front radar module
which hints that this model will feature ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control).
At the back, the space between the C-pillar and the
D-pillar hints that it may be a three-row SUV, and the company has made sure to
provide enough space for the rear occupants and the luggage compartment.
Overall, the new Baojun premium SUV has a very typical SUV-like design.
