Talking Time to Play Name that Car!

Saw it on the 10 Freeway a couple of days ago and I have no idea what it is. There were no emblems on it and no plates at all.

Front shots are a little distorted because I actually had to crop them from the side view mirror but you get the gist of it

Ssangyong is found in some parts of this hemisphere. I found a diplomat in my apartment building that brought one all the way up from Brazil. Some of the strangest looking designs for an SUV I have ever seen.

OK guys go to this link http://www.phoenixmotorcars.com/index.php
this is the Phoenix all electric car (body is Ssangyong) it is great to see that one was sighted finally on the road. I have been following them and a few other Electric Vehicles ie: Tesla, Hybrid Technologies I will confess that I have considered placing an order for a Phoenix.
I drive a RX400h but always loved the EV I tried to get a RAV 4 EV but got a letter "Due to lack of interest etc etc" WHAT A LIE just watch "Who Killed the Electric Car"

Off topic but proven over and over it wasn't a lie and that 'documentary' and its conspiracy theory was as lame as that ugly-*** car above.

Electric vehicles will come in time, as their feasibility increases - specifically, battery technology, range, and price.
