Why the different names?
Chinese brands often sell one car under several badges: a Chinese name at home (宝骏510, Bǎojùn 510) and one or more export names abroad. Renames happen to avoid trademark conflicts, to fit a global naming system, or because the domestic name does not translate well.
SGMW badge-swap: the Baojun 510 is exported as the Chevrolet Groove.
