Changfeng Motor Corp. has signed a draft agreement with American Hummer, belonging to General Motors - Guangzhou Daily announced. Currently Changfeng produces cars on the Mitsubishi license. Japanese company’s technology allowed Changfeng to create its own constructions, for which the carmaker has ownership rights. American consumers already had the opportunity to see Chinese products, during last two motor shows in Detroit.

„Changfeng is planning to produce landing gears for Hummer, which in future will be responsible for producing subassemblies and selling knitting cars with these parts under its own brand in North America. Whereas, the Chinese partner will help Hummer in expansion on local market”, company’s CEO, Chen Zhengchu, announced.
