Beijing BJ80, known as the "domestic Mercedes-Benz G-Class", is so similar in appearance that many consumers refit the low-priced BJ80 into millions of Mercedes-Benz G-Class and affix the Mercedes-Benz logo, which makes it difficult to tell. Of course, this part of consumers are more out of personal preference, vanity and behavior. This is not, another Beijing BJ80 with Mercedes-Benz logo was seen through by the traffic police.

Police in Ziyang, Sichuan Province said that on the morning of August 28, traffic police on duty were instructed to stop an SUV at the intersection of the urban railway bridge towards Upper West Street. It turned out that the Mercedes-Benz G-class off-road "luxury car", which seemed to be worth millions of dollars, was converted from Beijing off-road BJ80, and the car was overdue for annual inspection.

After asking the driver Chen, the traffic police on duty learned that the car was owned by Chen's niece, and Chen said he did not know about the modification.

Subsequently, a brigade directly under the Ziyang traffic police carried out verification and imposed a fine of 650 yuan and 3 points on the driver's license for driving a vehicle without annual inspection, changing the shape of the vehicle and registered relevant technical data according to law, and required the owner to immediately restore the vehicle to its original condition.

The vast number of car owners are reminded that they must not modify their vehicles without authorization because of their personal preferences, and if they need to change the scope of "modification" allowed by laws and regulations, they should go to the traffic management department of the public security organ for registration and approval of the change.

Some netizens think that this change is too similar, there is no flaw. Another netizen said that it had all been changed to such a situation that the layman could not recognize it at all.

Of course, because the two cars are produced by different manufacturers, the appearance is not exactly the same. Netizens remind that the window can most clearly distinguish between the two cars, the rectangular window is the authentic Mercedes-Benz G-class, the pentagonal window is the BJ80.
