The brand's Chinese name is Chuanqi which means legendary. Trumpchi sounds similar to Chuanqi and was a mash up of trump=best and chi=China. Back in 2013 when it was chosen, nobody knew that Trump would be in office. They are considering coming up with a new brand for North America.

Junk.

I like the description:

Quote:

New Appearance Shows The Royal Style
Flowing lines of the front face perfectly fit the stylish beltlines; soaring appearance with spread-eagle lines creates a feeling of wind; harmonious relationship between lines and surfaces reveals a dynamic body.
"Royal", "Soaring Appearance", "Spread Eagle", seriously??? It looks like a last generation Sonata clone with some styling cues from the Fusion. This description is gibberish I would expect to see on a poorly translated chinese fortune cookie. Don't they have consultants to catch nonsense like this?
