It's not a Chinese company but apparently there's a Vietnamese car company that's aiming to sell cars in the US. It's probably nothing but it's something interesting to follow.

Pham Nhat Vuong, Vietnam's richest man and now in charge of a startup called VinFast is investing $2 Billion of his own money in trying to reach the American market in 2021. His cash would account for half the capital investment of VinFast, which began delivering cars to Vietnamese consumers with BMW-licensed engines earlier this year and aims to expand into electric vehicles.

Here's the article from Bloomberg.
