Imported cars are sold nearly double the original price, I guess it is out of protectionism. But who do not have protectionism to their weak and growing industry?

Also, are you so sure that Chinese cars have cleaner emissions than foreign ones, regardless of mpg efficiency? A small engine doesn't mean much if the combustion is sloppy and the catalytic converter is junk. Then how do you justify the same tariffs on small, fuel efficient cars from foreign makers?

However, I suspect that the Chinese obsession with size as a status symbol will ensure that Hummers and the like will be roaming the streets for many years to come.

I applaud China for this development. Next step is to lay the smack down on the dicks driving grey market hummers . You mentioned it in your post: America's export to China, Arrogance.. "The attitude is I can afford a huge car, so I should have one." If I had a kuai for each person that asked me to import them a car I'd have about 20 kuai in my bank account by now..accumulating interest. Great news. I applaud China for this development.
