The car itself is a solid effort, especially if you only look at the promo pics. This is obviously an attempt to go after the Lexoid IS - the rear end is sweet, the side is rather overweight with Toyota Allion overtones, the front end is awful. The interior is surprisingly good, if they manage to pull that out with solid quality.
Expect the car to be sold internationally as MG or Austin.
PS. Actual car. Codename: Fatso

Yeah I agree the interior is very, very impressive.
