This is the JAC Yue Yue, the latest sub-£3000 car in China.
Cheap city cars are big business in China, with local manufacturers Chery, BYD and Chang’an all selling cars in the sector.
The Yue Yue is only available with a 68bhp 1.0-litre petrol engine, which meets Chinese 5 emissions standards (equivalent to Euro 4). Unusually, as well as a five-speed manual gearbox it is also available with an automatic. It also comes with disc brakes all round.
The city car is 540mm longer, 40mm narrower and 25mm higher than a Toyota iQ. Its wheelbase is 2390mm - 390mm longer than the iQ's.

Re: China's sub-£3k city car launched
thats only logical if they cost the same as the car that lasts 3 years. otherwise its more sensible (cheaper) to buy the one that breaks after 3 and just buy another. the fact thats its wasteful is irrelevant to customers.
Re: China's sub-£3k city car launched
Fair point, but a car shouldn't be designed to last 3 or 4 years, they should last longer. Thats what I meant really
