It looks threatening for the Western car builders. Within a decade or two most of them will face bankruptcy.
Dark days ahead. True or false?

Albert Speer Jr. to Build "Detroit of the East" in China.
With its plans to build a city neighborhood dedicated to the car industry Changchun, China is taking another ambitious step toward becoming a key player in the global automotive industry. And the son of Hitler's architect is lending his services.
Volkswagen produces its Golf model for the Chinese market at a factory in Changchun. More car factories are on the way.
It's no secret that China is diving headfirst into the automobile industry. This week though, Chinese officials decided on an architectural firm to build their very own Motor City. And they have selected the son of Hitler's architect -- and his firm called Albert Speer & Partners -- to do it.
