BYD F0 Sport Unveiled At Guangzhou Auto Show

Leave it to Chinese automaker BYD to build a Toyota Aygo cheaper and cooler, as they've done with the release of the BYD F0 Sport. The F0 Sport comes equipped with such innovative additions of performance as red seat covers with pillows on them, a red shifter knob, and a sporty paint job over a mild body kit. The whole deal goes for $5,000 US, which, is a fair bit more than the Guangzhou International Auto Show committee spent on press room food. We don't mean to complain or anything, but were the fried grasshoppers really necessary? Sure they're good, but can't a Jalop get a hamburger around here?

Though we've given you a week of in-depth LA Auto Show coverage we couldn't just let a major auto show pass without keeping you, our treasured readership, up-to-date with the latest news. That's why we've all jumped on the company jet and charted a course for the Guangzhou International Auto Show, which is where we're reporting from now. You might be thinking to yourself "it's 2 am in China, how could they possibly be putting on a show?" or "didn't that already happen this week?" or "how could you have possibly gotten Gawker to charter a private jet and send you all the way to China to cover a show that isn't even the biggest auto show in China?" All we can say to that is "shhhhhhhhh." Don't worry your pretty little head about the details. Just sit back and enjoy the ride by following the Guangzhou International Auto Show tag.

Dongfeng Nissan will debut the China-market Qashqai and X-Trail at the Guangzhou Auto Show, then plans to sell them both next year. We just love the names "Dongfeng" and "Qashqai." [The AutoChannel]
