  based on the fact that it's a PRC car,and that its a imitation using inferior materials in the construction of the car
  
  Korean cars are at least not copied from other car manufactorers.

  Yeah, the FC are not practical in Singapore roads. Singapore roads are too short and have too much traffics already.
  
  Honda Jazz also boast like 17km/l, but in Singapore roads, only about 12-13 ba... same goes to Geely or other car makers.
  
  Its seems that every time someone makes a topic about China cars, the same few people will go and post nonsense on these cars. It almost seems that they are paid to do so...
