This revelation follows a monthslong investigation into BMW, JLR, and VW, led by Ron Wyden, chair of the Senate Finance Committee.

German automaker BMW imported at least 8,000 Mini Cooper vehicles into the United States with electronic components from a banned Chinese supplier, a U.S. Senate report released on Monday said.

The report also found that Jaguar Land Rover and Volkswagen bought parts from a supplier the U.S. government had singled out for its practices in Xinjiang.
