But as Dongfeng strikes out on its own, it must divert its attention from ventures with Nissan, Honda, Peugeot-Citroen, Mitsubishi, Kia, Renault, and Cummins. How did it get central government approval for all those alliances afterall? I suppose as an SOE it can do things that Geely cannot. Anyway it'll be interesting to see if it can juggle all those balls at the same time. Nanjing only had to divert its attention from Fiat when it decided to self develop.
