    Every car design is comprised of bits ripped from another design.

    Whilst it does look like the tiguan, there is no doubt it is a toyota and can therefore not be classified as a design infringement.


    It's like how the rear of the new lancer looks identical to an Alfa romeo 159 (even similar lights)

    The rear still looks "RAV4-ish" but def the front is Tig-like!! Wonder what their brakes are like?
