Jaguar Land Rover Chief Executive Officer Ralf Speth renewed his criticism of Jiangling Motors Co., accusing the Chinese automaker of copying the British marque’s Evoque sport utility vehicle.
Jaguar Land Rover said late last year that it’s investigating whether Jiangling copied design elements of its best-selling SUV for a model that will sell for about one-third of the price. Jiangling had unveiled its Landwind X7 at an auto show in China in November, featuring broad fenders, recessed door panels and a sloping roof similar to the Land Rover Evoque.
