However, according to a wire report carried by Forbes.com, a heavily strengthened version of BS6 has been tested in Spain[5] by Idiada Automotive Technologies SA.
Brilliance was planning to market the car in America, but its price would have been at least $25,000, slightly higher than the already established Toyota Camry.
