Loncin did not copy the BMW engine, they sold space to BMW in Chongqing to manufacture the engine. From what I understand the agreement was that Loncin have access to the engine for implementation into their own model and subsequently they are limited to distribution of that model to China. They did not copy it they allowed BMW to set up manufacturing of the engine in their factory.


That manufacturing process of that engine, was managed by BMW and Loncin gained or should have gained relative manufacturing process technology from that venture.
