AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)09/19 Report--

Zhongtai SR9, known as "Porsche", basically mimics Porsche Macan in appearance, so many consumers convert the low-priced Zhongtai SR9 into Porsche Macan and affix Porsche logo, which makes it difficult to distinguish and become a "Porsche owner". Some car owners are more out of personal preference and vanity, but some car owners successfully blend into the Porsche circle.

According to news posted by several Weibo bloggers, a group of Porsche friends in a certain place recently "blew up" when a Zhongtai car owner infiltrated the Porsche club and brazenly drove to a party. The Zhongtai car owner who later got into the car club was found and kicked out of the Porsche group.

Zhongtai SR9 is a SUV model officially launched by Zhongtai Automobile in November 2016. the price is 10.88-161800 yuan. It is equipped with 2.0T turbocharged engine, maximum power 140KW (190Ps) and maximum torque of 250Nm. It matches a five-gear manual transmission or a six-gear double clutch transmission. The biggest controversial point of the new car is its appearance and interior design, which are very similar to Porsche Macan, which makes it difficult to distinguish. Since then, Zhongtai Motors has also been known as "Porsche".

The initial stage of Zhongtai SR9 listing is very hot, not only the network heat is high, terminal sales also continue to rise. Many consumers change their vehicles slightly to become a "Porsche", and some dealers even offer modification projects for consumers to choose from. If you do not observe carefully, and understand some of the details, it is indeed difficult to tell whether it is Porsche or Zhongtai SR9.

Prior to this, the traffic police have punished a number of Zhongtai SR9 owners who changed the appearance of their vehicles without authorization. The traffic police also warned that changing the car logo without authorization is not only disadvantageous to others, but also disadvantageous to the owner himself; not only does the annual inspection of the vehicle fail, but also in the event of a traffic accident, the owner changes the vehicle trademark without authorization, and there will also be problems in the settlement of automobile insurance claims.
