I agree with you is also a well known fact that the Chinese are experts in the production of replicas of almost anything on earth using cheaper materials that sell for far less cost, however, I think not China done completely, America has always been committed countries with much less monetary value to manufacturing for them among their main favorites has always been China A look at the number of American manufacturing companies China only for the domestic market displays the numbers are staggering.
For example Apple Sony are in the forefront of the reliability of the technological quality both make their China phones Timex made the majority of watches with Chinese movements to make it cheaper, Philips also manufactures most its components, China is the majority owner of Volvo Car Corp latest news in the holding Geely Group as well say that this is perhaps the most countries knowledge of production processes across a variety of products.
Only this knowledge can be exploited because they know exactly how to polish and put-together products that may seem very high quality from the outside but inside it'll be low cost, sensitive components for their products dirt cheap But when subjected to strict quality control by European or US companies that they know how to make products to compete with or beat German french assembly even the fact in the end is that China still relies on numbers because anyway their low margins be an own world and with so much knowledge about the making of this knock-off industry should happen is good in the sense that they demolish the halo that good most luxurious manufacturers seem to create 300-400 to justify inflated prices at the same time, is terrible these benefits have little to no quality control or trè s little imagination anyway, they operate one of the aspects that attracts some buyers - price.

I agree with you, however, that JLR may charge a premium for the car is due to the fact that he is the real deal, I think they are justified in charging a premium if I agree 300-400 that premium is too because they're those who came with the design etc and rightly should clearly copy something, even if it is a cheaper version because the imitator devalues the original, i mean why buy a 80k car though most people think it is a 20k drop of the population doesn t see the difference.
Honestly, I think it is theft, pure and simple, it wouldn not even matter if it was better than the original which he obviously isn t.
Ashamed that I really feel bad for JLR designers who created the Evoque design-they must be crying themselves to sleep at night, it is one thing to be inspired by great designs and arrive at something 'affordable for the masses anything else, blatant rip off of a luxury brand and mass products wannabe lookalikes the scary part is that they have obtained at least in photos so similar-looking statements.
Before condemning this big, just think how inventions have spread across the world through time immemorial up until now something is invented and loved in one place, it moves to another place, many such things appear in many places, sometimes better are improved, etc. It's just that no monetary consideration was given all the drawings that circulated and found the house in remote locations changed with the invention of intellectual property rights.
Should we continue to pay for R & D that produced Range Rover It's like going on paying toll for roads and bridges where costs were multiple recovered If a company can provide a pretty good version of Range Rover for 1 third or half the cost, which is also a kind of innovation and it seems that the Chinese are doing this in the framework of international laws Regardless of whether one agrees or not, I sure do not see much ground for moral outrage.

I think that's where you have lost the plot a bit While someone that can produce the same quality stuff at 1 third the price is welcome to do so, provided that it uses the know-how developed by the original party without the permission of that party, you can certainly t blatantly copy something way to make it look like a replica then, you are obviously up to no good there no better than the people who produce counterfeit money in the currency of Rs 1,000, then sell them to agents in this country for Rs 50 each in addition, the toll collection example does not work because you have said, when it s beyond the cost of the construction of infra and a reasonable profit then it becomes bad but in the case of vehicles that need to be completely updated every 4-5 years, the huge investments have to be recovered in a court period you and the jacks obviously costs more.
We begin to see all the moral indignation the day when we produce something original and the guy next to us immediately copied and starts undercutting our offer Until then, it's syndrome Me me that we suggests that if I have nothing to lose in this whole process, but can get a cost advantage then let other interests be contained.
Now there arises a moral dilemma where the finer aspects of man as a matter of life are involved as in the case of very expensive drugs that some of the poorest countries in Africa can afford Must provide cheaper alternative Probably yes, but something as material as a car ago Not every reason to be morally outraged by these flights of ideas and designs.
JLR shouldnt worry about these things actually a customer Landwind X7 has never been a customer first JLR Meanwhile, a customer can afford a Evoque will never buy it - so there is no sales loss issue.
This is true to a great extent if, however, the thing here is the fact that the original design was lost because of someone copying.
However, there will be a percentage of people who can afford the price of the Evoque, but otherwise do not give two hoots about the brand RR They will be happy to acquire it at a fraction of the cost.
