2008 Detroit Show Chinese Exhibitors Announced

Back in August, we informed you that five Chinese car manufactures would attend the 2008 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit (Jan. 13-27, 2008) without knowing however, the names of the carmakers. Today, NAIAS officials decided to spill the beans by releasing the names of the Chinese exhibitors –don’t wet your pants ok: Changfeng Motor Group, BYD Auto Co., Geely International Corporation, China America Cooperative Automotive, Inc./ZXNA (Chamco) and Li Shi Guang Ming Auto Design Co. While Changfeng and Geely have shown their merchandise in previous Detroit Show, BYD., Chamco and Li Shi Guang Ming will be making their first ever appearance.

"We are very excited to welcome these Chinese companies to Detroit," said Carl Galeana, NAIAS 2008 senior co-chairman. "With so much interest surrounding their products, we expect the thousands of industry executives and international media who attend our show will be eager to learn more about these companies first hand”, added Galeana.
