Styling
The Geely MK subcompact sedan was criticized for resembling the first generation Toyota Vios especially from the side as the DLO is essentially the same as the Toyota subcompact sedan. Despite the redesigned front and rear and also having a hatchback version, it doesn't hide the fact that during the development of the Geely MK sedan, reverse engineering was involved using the Toyota Vios.
