Last week, GM legal staff threatened litigation if Visionary Vehicles brands the China-built cars it intends to import under the name of the cars' builder, Chery. (Chery was recently named in a lawsuit filed by GM that alleges the Chery QQ is an exact copy of the GM-Daewoo Matiz, sold in China as the Chevy Spark.) Today, Visionary CEO, Malcolm Bricklin dismissed the letter and offerred GM some recommendations for where the automaker can file it, and the legal threats therein. Click through for more.
[GM] should focus on developing a better product for consumers, rather than waste time and resources with veiled threats of frivolous lawsuits. The American consumer will see soon enough that comparing Chery to Chevy, is like comparing cherries to lemons.
Get your flack jackets on kids, this could get ugly.
