As is the new Land Rover, as is the new Jaguar XFL etc. etc.
China auto market is now larger than the US & Japan combined
The Dongfeng KX has a Volvo (same as on the FM & FL or ZF ASTronic) and a Cummins engine and the Cab was by Italian design house. In fact Volvo were involved in its design. Price is stupid low!
I think if we BREXIT a free trade agreement with China (which the EU won't let us make) will see such trucks here in the UK and operating into the EU undercutting european brnad truck operators. Increased productivity!
(Actually, if you know about deformable safety structures you will understand that the image you chose to display shows it has done its job in absorbing the energy of the impact and not damaged the more fragile object. Modern cars are designed to behave in this way.)
