A car without a logo is the Soueast Lingyue V3. Taking the 2017 1.5L Manual Xiqing Edition of the V3 Lingyue as an example: it is a compact 4-door 5-seater sedan under Soueast Motors, with a length, width, and height of 4420mm, 1700mm, and 1415mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2500mm, equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, and a fuel tank capacity of 50L. The 2017 1.5L Manual Xiqing Edition of the V3 Lingyue has a maximum engine torque of 143 Nm, with the maximum torque speed at 4000 rpm, front-wheel drive, front suspension using MacPherson independent suspension, and rear suspension using multi-link independent suspension.
I once saw a car on the street without any logo and thought it was some mysterious brand. Later, I asked the owner and found out he had removed the logo himself for a custom modification. In fact, most cars come with logos when they leave the factory, like BMW or Toyota, where the emblem is usually placed on the front grille or rear tailgate. If there’s no logo, it might be because the repair shop didn’t reinstall it properly after an accident, or a used car dealer intentionally removed it to hide accident history. As someone who often works on cars, I suggest first checking the shape of the front grille—Audi has a hexagonal one, while Honda’s is more rounded. You can also check the VIN code to confirm the brand; entering it on the official website will reveal the original factory information. Never make wild guesses, or you might end up at a disadvantage when buying a used car. In daily driving, missing logos can affect recognition and safety, especially at night when it’s hard to identify the car model, so don’t casually remove those small emblems for fun.
A missing car emblem doesn't necessarily indicate a specific brand issue; I think it's more of a customization trend among car enthusiasts. At auto shows, I've seen concept cars without logos, where brands hide them for confidentiality during testing—like Tesla's early Model S prototypes which were very discreet. In reality, even mainstream cars like Volkswagen or Ford might lack emblems if someone removed them to save costs or effort. Identification is straightforward: observe body lines—Nissan has a signature V-shaped front grille, while Hyundai features angular hood contours. Tiny logos often remain on interior seats or steering wheels. For friends into modifications, if removing emblems, ensure compliance with regulations—traffic laws mandate clear vehicle identification, or fines may apply if caught by traffic police. Also, while this trend is cool, avoid excessive stealth—neighbors might mistake your BMW for an obscure compact car!
