Here's what the Chery looks like up close:

Certainly a fairly decent effort by Chery, we shall see about the actual build quality, reliability, road- and crash-worthiness, but I think GM's development of the very same vehicle, the Chevrolet Spark (aka Pontiac G2 Matiz in Mexico) will have a worthy competitor...




In a twist of fate, the Breeze will replace another rehashed Korean, the Hyundai Amica sold as "Atos by Dodge" in Mexico.
Thanks Bravada. i actually heard back from Brenda and it looks like this car is not desirable enough (meaning editors interest is not high enough at this point) These cars have been running around CTC for months and up until I shot that pic they were pretty good at eluding my lens (in part because of there small size). Even though Chrysler is a favorite target of mine i have also gone to fords MPG facility and just recently to Milford proving grounds with a friend of mine where I shot plenty of lacrosse mules (which is already posted here). Anyway I'm actually saving some money for a new SLR camera so i can take better distance photos but I'll still have my current Canon camera on me for close range shots like this one
