Hint: Made in my country!

I'm 99% sure that means it can only be ONE vehicle too...

We did have a car industry here for many years, building cars from parts kits from other countries (and some locally made parts) - my fifth car was a 1986 Nissan Pulsar that was built about a fifteen minute drive from where I now live!

I'll give y'all one more hint before I guess it myself - It's based on the Skoda Octavia, built in 1966-72 in New Zealand

Skoda Trekka, then?

::edit:: looks like I’m mixing up a few cars there and none of them look quite right

It's a Buick Riviera I think.

Hint from Wikipedia: The *********, sold in its home market as the ****** or the *******, is a city car produced by the Chinese manufacturer ****** from November 2008 to 2016. In 2010 the ******* scored 45.3 in C-NCAP crash tests, making it China's first locally researched and developed compact car to be awarded a 5-star rating, and it is subsequently the safest Chinese hatchback as of 2011.

After a lot of scrolling through a lot of very irrelevant Chinese automotive brands and models... including looking at basically every Great Wall and subsequently GWM model ever (I was sure it would be from the same minds that brought us the GWM Ora!)... I've found it: The Geely LC!
