The Oregonian article "Chrysler to import a small car from China: The first vehicles could reach dealers in less than two years:"
The first Chinese cars could arrive in the U.S. in less than two years and be sold under an American brand name.
Chrysler Group, the U.S. unit of DaimlerChrysler AG, said Friday that it has signed a letter of intent with Chinese manufacturer Chery Automobile Co. for Chery (pronounced "cherry") to build a small car that Chrysler will market in North America, Europe and elsewhere.
Several Chinese auto companies want to sell vehicles in this country, and the planned arrival of a Chery-made product signals the coming of a new era of competition, decades after Japanese and South Korean car companies arrived in the United States.
