Chinese Copy, Improve Porsche Cayenne

The Porsche Cayenne is an incredibly popular vehicle despite looking like a mongoose in headgear, so it's no surprise a Chinese company is cloning it. What is surprising? Huatai improved the appearance by adding a Bentley grille.

One area where the Chinese almost certainly didn't improve the car is in the performance department. It's probably powered by a 1.8-liter fourbanger copied from a 12-year-old VW design tied to a FWD setup made of lead and iron. Besides the Bentley, what other cues can you see "borrowed" in the design? [TheTycho]
