Hongqi L5 - Most Expensive Chinese Car



Chinese company Hongqi introduced the most expensive Chinese car ever, The Hongqi L5 it costs $803,300. L5 comes with loads of sheet metal and weighs in at 6,950 pounds which is roughly 1,300 pounds more than a Rolls-Royce Phantom.



Hongqu, for obvious reasons, decided to put a 402 hp V-12 engine in the car that drives all four wheels. Such a powerful engine would indeed be required to make this huge car to move. Moving to the luxury interior; it is definitely up to date with all the modern gadgetry and stuff. The L5 comes with a myriad of display screens, which cater to the needs of driver and passengers. However, the design of this L5 has been lifted off directly from CA72 state Limousine 1959 by the same Chinese company. The design hasn't been innovated nor re-invented but rather re-applied again.



The first car has already been sold to a certain Mr. Wang Zhonghua who has a chain of furniture malls to his name.
