January 2009, China surpassed U.S. to become the world's largest car market, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.

The strong Chinese economy resulted both the auto show and the country’s automotive landscape are changing. Renowned international players are common.  Buick Regal is still in production there for the Chinese yuppies.

China is exporting its homegrown brands to Europe. Chinese cars are entering the U.S. in the next decade or so. China has already exhibited at U.S. auto shows, and despite falling short of US’s safety standards thus far, it’s too early to dismiss the possibilities of Chinese cars on American roads.
