The Englon SC5-RV is a subcompact hatchback produced by Chinese auto manufacturer Englon. It debuted as a concept at the 2010 Beijing Auto Show. Price ranges from 52.300 yuan to 56.300 yuan.[1]
In 2013 the Englon SC5-RV received 5 stars during the crash test commissioned and tested by the C-NCAP in Tianjin, China.[2]
A facelift was conducted in 2013 with revised front bumper, rear bumper, and light units.[3]
A subcompact SUV based on the Englon SC5-RV hatchback call the Englon SX5 was launched shortly after. Which is essentially the Geely Englon SC5-RV slightly lifted with different bumpers and plastic cladding.
The Geely GLEagle GC5 debuted at the Beijing Auto Show in April as a sedan variant of the Englon SC5-RV, and was listed in early 2011.[4]
The K17A debuted on August 5, 2016, as the first product of Kandi Technologies. From the exterior, the Kandi K17A EV was essentially a rebadged Englon SC5-RV, and the vehicle was originally built for the Kandi EV CarShare, a carsharing program in the city of Hangzhou. The system operates only with Kandi EV all-electric cars, which are available to customers in automated garages that run like vending machines. The leasing option, called "Long Lease," is available from 1- to 3-year contracts.[5]
