Come on, China. We know you can design a car on your own.
- Jaguar Land Rover forced to accept Range Rover Evoque lookalike from China’s Jiangling (Automotive News, sub. req.)
The same company that made that crappy Warthog-wannabee we talked about yesterday won’t get sued by JLR for their Evoque copy. The best part of the article is at the end.“Imported car? No, China car,” read the tagline on one page of the brochure.
- Butterfly wings are the key to glare-free phone displays (Engadget)
…and maybe infotainment systems, too. - Welcome To Dixie (Speedhunters)
