Chery and Fuji Heavy Industries had planned to make Subaru vehicles in China. But they have been unable to get regulatory approval due to potential conflicts with Beijing's industry policy.

Jaguar and Land Rover, controlled by Tata Motors, had also been looking for a Chinese partner and had contacted a slew of auto makers, including Great Wall Motor Co.
