The Qoros 3 Makes A Comeback
Qoros is only a few years old, having debuted with the Qoros 3, which received favorable to positive reviews. This car set in motion the company’s plan to bring luxury and affordability together, and not through gimmicks, but through quality in design and in function. The Qoros 3 delivered the promise, making for a locally made car that felt foreign.

The car was quoted to be the most favorable to drive out of the Chinese automobile industry, and the 5 is sure to follow up.

For 26 days, the car ran a total of 15,000km for a special rally, making way from ‘dirt roads in the Russian Far East to the German autobahn, where speed limits do not apply.’
The release looks promising, and the Qoros 5 will be completely unveiled next month at the Guangzhou Auto Show, and once that’s past, the car is set to go on sale locally.
