Wikipedia says one Chinese manufacturer, Geely, sold 1.5 million vehicles last year [0]; that probably includes 700K Volvos [1] (they bought Volvo from Ford in 2010), so I'm guessing 600-700K domestic Chinese-produced vehicles. If they had successfully switched production, we'd be talking, what, 100s of thousands of devices a month? But not a word. If they were even making a few 10s of thousands a month I don't think we'd be having this conversation.
