The Emgrand EC8 is a large family car of the Emgrand sub-brand of Chinese automaker Geely Auto.
Background
[edit]The Emgrand EC8 debuted at the 2010 Beijing Auto Show. Formerly known as the Emgrand EC825, Geely decided to shorten the name to simply Emgrand EC8.[1]
The EC8 is Geely's first entry to the D-segment mid-size sedan or Large family car market. The car resembles a cross between the Toyota Camry (XV40) and the Cadillac CTS as the EC8 was benchmarked against and reverse engineered from the Toyota Camry. The Geely EC8 will compete with mid-size rivals such as the Toyota Camry, Volkswagen Magotan, Honda Accord, Nissan Teana and Chery-Riich G5 in the Chinese market.[2]
