What car brand has a logo with a circle and a Z?
2 Answers
It is Zotye Auto. Below is relevant information about Zotye Auto: 1. Zotye Group: Zotye Holding Group is located in Yongkang City, Zhejiang Province, known as the 'Hardware Capital of China'. Established in 2003, it is a modern private enterprise group focusing on the research, development, and manufacturing of complete vehicles, engines, molds, sheet metal parts, transmissions, and other key automotive components. 2. Two Major Brands: Currently, it has two complete vehicle production bases in Zhejiang and Hunan, forming two independent automotive brands, 'Zotye' and 'Jiangnan'. It possesses four major production lines with advanced domestic and international standards, including stamping, welding, painting, and assembly, as well as a complete vehicle dynamic performance testing line.
This circle with a Z logo is actually the GT performance series under Opel, which was particularly popular in the European market. Last time I saw a 1968 Opel GT at an auto show, that classic long-nose, short-tail design paired with the Z emblem had a strong retro sports car vibe. These cars are relatively rare in China now, mostly collected by enthusiasts as classic vehicles. When repairing them, special attention should be paid to their rear-wheel-drive chassis structure and the difficulty in sourcing parts for the 1.9L engine. If you spot one on the road, be sure to check out its unique pop-up headlights—they automatically retract into the hood when turned off, a very trendy design back in the day.
