Lets look into some more 'Technology Transfer' stuff..
Haima motors is based in Hainan island off the south coast of China. The name ‘Haima’ is a compound of the two words Hainan (where Haima is based) and Mazda, so you get Haima. In the days of old Hainan Auto works and Mazda had a joint venture together where Hainan Autos would produce Mazda cars. Then the mega giant Chinese car producer, FAW came along and bought Hainan Auto Works, thus the FAW-Mazda joint venture was born, and became very successful too. Once the FAW-Mazda JV was put into place, Haima became one of FAW’s sideline brands like Xiali, Red Flag etc. This however, did not effect Haima too much and they had grand plans to carry on their own brand, they receieved many of the older Mazda models that Mazda no longer wished to continue with.. and this is what you see before you today.
The Haima 3 (codenamed H11) is one of the pioneer brand of Haima. Its out there since 2007 and as evident, is based on Mazda 3. In China it is considered to be more prettier than the actual Mazda 3.
