2014 Changan Zisum XT

Compact - Hatch

​   With a final score of 70%, the new Zisum is sure to heat up the compact hatch market in China.  Now all they have to do is give it a sport hood and lose the pouting rear, and Changan would have a winner on their hands.

​Front End: B
    Good: A fog light which makes a statement, not an appearance
    Bad:  Make the front spoiler more aftermarket
Rear End: B-
    Good: Sinister eyes staring at you
    Bad: A pouting lip of a rear bumper
Side: B+
    Good: All the dark fillers to create breaking points
    Bad: A little less on the hard edges
Overall Appeal: B+
    Good: One sexy fast hatchback that is ready for the aftermarket world
    Bad: Still not a trend setter with its Hyundai i20 lines

Could this be the start of a trend setter and leader of design in China.  Let's hope so.
