This just seems like the darkest nightmare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As per resources, Honda has recently moved\u00a0ahead with vehicle designs that appear to be heavily influenced by Changan vehicles. Dongfeng-Honda is producing the new CR-V, and Honda also has a joint venture in China named Guangzhou-Honda, or simply GAC-Honda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Honda HR-V 2021:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/autodeals-blog.wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Honda-1-HR-V-2021-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Honda HR-V 2021\" class=\"wp-image-93549\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The company has released the honda HR-V in 2021. The rear-end was much more resemble the Changan UNI-K crossover that was introduced in 2020. Besides the rear end, there are a lot of similarities in the front end including the elaborate grille. When the HR-V Modulo X was released, it appeared to be a blatant replica of Changan&#8217;s iconic &#8220;Butterfly Grille&#8221; design, making the HR-V look like a Changan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the photos, the front of the new Honda CR-V is hugely affected by the Changan Oshan X7 Plus, which was just released in Pakistan. The front, with matching headlamps, grille, and even creases on the bonnet, appears to be a clear similar to the Changan Oshan X7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it a coincidence?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/autodeals.pk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Is-it-a-coincidence-1024x347.jpg\" alt=\"Is it a coincidence\" class=\"wp-image-93548\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s easy to dismiss the similarities between the new Honda HR-V and the Changan UNI-K as a coincidence. The recent photographs of the new CR-V released by China&#8217;s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) suggest that it&#8217;s no longer a coincidence. Moreover, every new automobile sold in China must go through MIIT&#8217;s homologation procedure, so photographs are posted on their website before vehicles are released to the public. Whether you believe it or not, Honda is mimicking Changan&#8217;s designs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is the surprising news about the Honda Atlas.
