Chinese name: 北汽绅宝D50 (běiqì shēnbǎo D50)
Year of launch: 2012
At the end of 2009 BAIC (Beijing Auto) acquired the property rights and powertrain technologies of the Saab 9-3 and first generation 9-5. Production models based on these Saabs were launched from 2012 and entered the market from 2013 as Beijing Auto. In 2014 BAIC created the Senova brand for the Saab-based models, but also the Beijing E-series, from 2014 called Senova D20. The Beijing Auto E-series/Senova D20 is a small hatchback (or MPV) based on the Smart Forfour/Mitsubishi Colt platform, powered by 1.3 and 1.5-litre Mitsubishi engines.
The Beijing C50E debuted in 2012 and it went into production as Senova D50 in 2014. The Senova D50 is based on the Saab 9-3. Sales were decent but inconsistent in 2014 and 2015, and imploded in 2016.
