The SRM Jinhaishi M (金海狮 M) is a mid-size MPV produced by Chinese car manufacturer Shineray Group under the SRM marque. It is positioned under the slightly larger SRM Jinhaishi.

SRM used to produce Jinbei minivans, and serves as a joint venture between Brilliance Auto Group and Dongfang Xinyuan (鑫源) Holdings (Oriental Shineray Holdings). 80% is owned by Xinyuan Holdings and a subsidiary of Beijing North Industry owns 20% which is no longer part of Brilliance. Currently it produces microvans under the Shineray (now SRM) and SWM brands.

Built by Brilliance Xinyuan Chongqing Auto (华晨鑫源), originally the Chongqing branch of Brilliance Auto, the SRM Jinhaishi M was offered with a 1.5-liter engine that produces 112 hp for the base model and a 1.6-liter unit developing 120 hp for higher trim models. Each engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
