Car industry groups ask Trump to block Chinese brands from the US market

UPDATE - follow-up to Auto Industry Urges Trump to Keep Chinese Carmakers Out of US - bloomberg.com: Car industry groups are pushing the incoming presidential administration to block Chinese automakers from selling vehicles in the United States. Leaders from the sector want strict trade barriers put in place to protect local manufacturing and jobs from low-cost competition coming from overseas. Industry representatives argue that allowing these foreign competitors unchecked access would damage the domestic car market. The appeal highlights growing concern among local car companies about vehicles built in China entering the North American supply chain through other countries or direct imports.
