Spy shots of the new Horki sedan testing in China. Horki, or Hua Qi in Chinese, is a new sub brand of the Dongfeng-Yueda-Kia joint venture. The brand launched on the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show with a fancy concept, but we already knew the real car would be a tad more boring…

The Horki 1 concept. No similarities.

The Horki sedan is based on the last-generation Kia Cerato that was made in China by Dongfeng-Yueda-Kia. Power will come from a 1.6 liter four-cylinder with 112hp, mated to a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Price for the Horki will start around 70.000 yuan and end around 90.000 yuan. Launch on the Chinese auto market is scheduled for early 2015.
