Toyota Terios
The Daihatsu Terios was produced by Toyota’s Joint Venture partner FAW Huali from 2003 and sold under the new Dario sub-brand in Toyota showrooms. Initial sales projections estimated 10,000 annual sales, but the model never came close, so production was terminated in 2006. Then in 2007, Zotye launched an exact copy of the Terios named Zotye 2008 (named to celebrate the 2008 Beijing Olympics), but how Zotye acquired this line and if they also bought the rights to replicate the design is unclear.
