Why the different names?
Chinese brands often sell one car under several badges: a Chinese name at home (探索06, Tànsuǒ 06) 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.
'Discovery 06' becomes the Jaecoo J7 abroad — one of the most-asked renames.
