DFSK Loadhopper - Chinese cars, now Chinese vans - daveyK_UK

A old contact told me about these vans today.Finally someone has brought out a replacement to the Suzuki Carry. I must say, needing a nimble van, these look ideal but being a new franchise I have some big reservations. What will they be like for parts? What will they be like for reliability? Where is the 1.3 petrol engine sourced from? Will they be hard to sell? I seem like I am asking alot this past day regarding vehicles, but the business would benefit from at least 1 slim van, this really fits the bill. I looked at a Nissan NV200 instead of another Peugeot Partner or Citroen Berlingo, but the NV200 is more akin to the Toyota Hiace and the list price is expensive for what it is. Again, any advice welcome.

The BMW grille certainly gives it an air of quality.

The recent Top Gear on the improved standard of Chinese-made vehicles told us where this was all going.

Is it the same chassis as the Suzuki Carry? And is it the same 1.3 engine albeit made euro 5 compliant?
