رولز تتهم ... و جيلي تنفي
رولز تتهم
بالرغم من ان الرولز رويس فانتوم يبلغ سعرها 365 الف دولار ... مقابل 44 الف دولار للجيلي المفتكسه
الا ان رولز رويس ابدت اعتراضها على السرقه الصريحه للشكل و التي قد تقلل من تفرد و اصاله ماركتها العريقه بسبب الشكل فقط ... مع ترفعهم عن اي مقارنه بين جيلي و رولز ...
وتدرس رولز الخيارات المتاحه و امكانيه مقاضاه جيلي .. الا انها لم تحدد بعد الاجراء النهائي المتوقع
وجيلي تنفي
ونفت جيلي تماما اي سرقه للتصميم او التقليد و ادعت ان الامر مجرد تشابه بسيط ...
وصرحت بانه للوهله الاوللى قد يظهر تشابه لكن التفاصيل مختلفه تماما !!!!!
يمكن ده سبب كرسي العرش ...
علشان اي اتهام من رولز بسرقه التصميم ...يبقى الكرسي حجتهم
وبعد كده اي سروجي شاطر ... يقفله كنبه مرسيدس و لا جاجوار
Understandably, that development hasn't been sitting well with Rolls-Royce officials, who promptly got on the horn to their lawyers after clapping their eyes on the GE. While the British luxury firm has stopped short of saying they intend to sue, according to an article in the
U.K. Telegraph, a Rolls-Royce spokesman admits "Rolls-Royce is currently keeping its options open and is in consultation with its legal advisers."
At an estimated £30,000 – around $44k USD – for the GE (versus £250,000/$365k for the Phantom), it could be argued that few are likely to confuse the two vehicles, but even still, critics argue that Roller would appear to have a compelling case that cars like the GE are not only intellectual property theft, but that they could also serve to erode brand equity of the genuine article.
Geely Automobile is in full denial of British accusations. The independent Chinese automaker, which rolled out its luxurious
GE model bearing more than slight resemblance to the
Rolls-Royce Phantom at the
Shanghai Motor Show, seems rather unconcerned. "As it were, they are actually different ... people may feel they are the same at the first glance, but the details are certainly different," Geely spokeswoman Zhang Xiaoshu told AFP.
Keep telling that to the good blokes at Rolls-Royce who are
considering legal action against Geely. To most observers in the industry, the production-bound Chinese GE concept clearly borrows the Rolls signature grill, down-sloping rear deck, and the Flying Lady mascot. Unlike the Phantom, the Chinese variant is set to hit the market at a sliver of the cost of the exclusive Rolls. While imitation is often considered the most sincere form of flattery, the British evidently aren't cracking so much as a smile.
