You have a point. I just don't like the whole 'clone' thing ... stealing someone else's stuff is not good.
The difference in my mind is that they can't (to my understanding) export these for sale, at least in UN affiliated countries. If they are undercutting Lamborghini's sales outside their country, I'd have a much different outlook.
This sort of reminds me of the North Korean vehicle clones that look almost like they're just rebadged NA models. I'm not sure if they even really sell these, but I can't say it bothers me since they're in an isolated market.
True enough. I still don't like the theft though.
or the clone is going to be better, and Lambo will make even better cars to save face.
I don't see that happening here. It's not necessarily the designs that make a Lambo, but the execution. The tolerances on supercars are so tight that it takes experience, time, and the right machinery to make one right. Anybody can put a lookalike with a Dodge engine on the road.
Edit: Apparently they're putting a Hyundai engine in it. It helps to read the article before commenting.
All things considered, I say good for them. Its either going to fail and make Lambo look good, or the clone is going to be better, and Lambo will make even better cars to save face. Competition never hurts, especially when there's virtually no market overlap.
