Yeah their nuke program is a completely rebadged Chinese+Russian+Pakistani+Indian program, but this car is not a rebadged kia: the body is completely new, lying on the chasis of the ancient Nissan Junior pickup and using the same engine and tranny! (AFAIK however, some dashboard parts come from Kia Pride, which is assembled in Saipa).
