Default Geely EC718 sedan and hatchback revealed

Chinese automaker Geely has published a new set of photos of its all-new EC718 sedan and hacthback models that are destined to make their world debut along with 20 or so other production and concept cars from the firm including the GT Coupe at the Shanghai Auto Show. The inelegantly named subcompact four-door sedan and five-door hatchback will be offered in the Chinese market with numerous four-cylinder gasoline engines. Geely seems to be quite optimistic about the future of the two new Focus-sized models as the company said that it plans to sell both cars in many markets outside China.

Oh man... Geely is at its best again...

The sedan is like a last gen Corolla with the current S-class rear end. The hatch is a total rip-of from the Opel/Saturn Astra...
