Changfeng Motor hopes to break into the North American market within two years
time, exporting SUVs and pickup trucks to the US. According
to Xinhua, company chairman Li Jianxin says they're in talks with a US partner.
No mention though of what company. Changfeng
is the second Chinese carmaker after Geely to display at the North American International
Auto Show. Other
Chinese automakers also say they plan to expand to the United States but none
has done so yet. Chinese
automakers are starting to export to lower-income markets in Asia and elsewhere.
But according
to Xinhua, industry analysts say they are likely to have trouble meeting U.S.
safety and emissions standards.
