With China's Geely out of the picture for now it looks like Chang Feng will be the Chinese representative in Detroit next year. Dow Jones reports that Chang Feng will bring four vehicles to NAIAS 2007. Chang Feng is expected to show up with two Liebao (Chinese for Cheetah) branded pickup trucks and two SUVs. Photos and details are scarce as you might expect from China. The above photo is Chang Feng's Cheetah concept unveiled at the 2005 Shanghai Auto Show. Currently Chang Feng produces licensed Mitsubishi designs.

Chang Feng chairman JianXin Li says his company plans to begin selling cars stateside sometime within the next decade.

Formerly known as No. 7319 Factory of Chinese People's Liberation Army Chang Feng Co. Ltd. Chang Feng reorganized in 1996 and says it is on track to produce 200000 vehicles by next year which would be twice its current output.
