Autoblog tipster hp sent us a
link to this article that provides bits of info about Chery’s
first vehicle that meets “U.S. standards”, the A520. The article is in Croation, which unfortunately Google
Translate hasn’t gotten around to learning yet, so the details at this point are suspect. For instance, does the
vehicle meet safety (i.e. crash) standards or emissions standards? Hp tells us that the A520 is based on an older
version of the Seat Toledo (think VW Jetta) and uses a 2.0L engine designed by an Austrian company named AVL. The
design is reportedly by Bertone, the firm also responsible for nearly all of Lamborghini’s legendary designs
including the Miura, Espada and Countach.
