Actually they do do that in some tests. It shows what injuries there are and where (As well as the gyrometers)

Complete overgeneralization. China has hundreds of automakers, but the few serious ones understand the need to bring their safety and engineering up to global par. A real gauge of the Chinese auto market would be to keep an eye on major players like Chery, Geely, etc... afaik, Landwind isn't a major player in China or anywhere else and their only claim to fame is that they are the first Chinese make to export to Europe.

The Opel Frontera was a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo.

But this thing has the doors and glass and stuff of a 1st-gen Rodeo, not the 2nd gen.

So is it a poor copy, or what?

well, that's a pretty huge claim. if other players are bigger, why haven't they exported yet? but yes, i will agree that i may be generalizing, but i also hear this kind of thing from the horse's mouth.
