I guess automakers are running out of design ideas and are now mashing up completely different cars into one. But then again, that has always been the strategy of Chinese automakers. This time, it’s the S11 from JAC Motors (Jianghuai Automobile).
From the rear, it appears to be inspired by the Ferrari while the design cues on the side profile appear to be borrowed from the Audi R8. And the sharp angles on the front are a bit Lamborghini inspired. Not many details are available about the S11 but it will be presented at the 2012 Auto China Show in Beijing.
The S11 from JAC Motors looks almost identical to the Tong Jian S11 but I’m not sure if the two are related in anyway and I’m sure nobody gives a damn. The S11 is rumored to be powered by a gasoline-electric hybrid engine.
I wouldn’t expect any impressive numbers out of this car. Just as an example, JAC Motors also cloned the latest generation Ford F-150 (seen below) and it produces a 108hp and 177 lb-ft of torque out of a 2.8 liter diesel.
