The Chinese Kaiyi E5 sedan, which recently entered the conveyor belt of the Kaliningrad Avtotor, has excellent characteristics for taxi and car-sharing services. Therefore, he may soon have a special version, which will be slightly different from the one offered to private buyers.

As Vitaly Ryabkin, general manager of Kai Rus LLC, stated at the Interbranch Automobile Congress in Moscow, the biggest bet is now placed on the four-door. After all, we don’t have enough sedans and the demand for the model is good.

Interested in Kaiyi E5 and commercial constructions, such as taxi companies, because the “Chinese” is comparable in size to such once popular models as the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Cerato. However, the operation of the car in a taxi has its own characteristics. Optics and body parts should be cheap because they are the first victims of accidents. As a result, there is talk of preparing a “commercial” version of the E5 with a different design.

Let’s assume all optics are exclusively halogen, the radiator grille has no “beauties”, and the bumpers are composite. Then you do not have to replace the entire part in the event of an accident. It is enough, for example, to update the right side, which will significantly reduce the cost of repairs. Yes, and plastic cannot be painted, because a film is pasted on it.
