According to the article I linked, Autocar got it directly from SAIC's design boss, Jozef Kaban (designer of the GTS).

Good stuff. What we want to see. I cant see the rear lights changing but people are free to modify it as they wish.

Be interesting to see how the rear hatch opens. If its just the glass, glass and trunk lid on a hinge or just trunk lid itself.

From Chinese forum

"The Coupé was reportedly named the Cyberster GTS, and it was also revealed that the scissor doors would be changed to swing doors and a four-seater version. And gave a weight comparison, GTS 1.8 tons, compared to the convertible version of 1.985 tons, this seems to be the weight of the four-wheel drive version, with this weight reduction estimate The rear-wheel drive version is expected to enter less than 1.7 tons"
