I'm sure you're aware that most Chinese restaurants in North America are far from authentic. I'm talking deep fried chicken balls in Iodine #1046 sauce. It's America's take on Chinese cuisine in essence. Dumbed down for out tastes. Often referred to as American Chinese cuisine.
In the car world, this happens as well. Although the Chinese are new to carmaking, the Japanese have been doing it for a while. American Camrys and Accords are bigger than their Japanese counterparts. The Avalon is a 6 seater created for the American market.
Due to the flood of car makers rushing to the Chinese automotive scene as the country gets their licenses, GM decided it had to have a chunk of the scene. It's using Buick. What you see below are the Chinese Buicks. GM thought long and hard and designed a whole new lineup for the country. AKA they took some Daewoos and rebadged them. Nothing could be further from what a Buick is meant to be. Harvey Earle must be rolling in his grave. Spinning even. As fast as a tornado (or Toronado).
