DUBLIN, Ireland--Sept. 21, 2005--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c24482) has announced the addition of China's Auto Market Guide 2005 - Complete Guide to China's Automotive Industry to their offering.

China's Auto Market Guide provides a comprehensive picture of the Chinese automotive industry focusing on passenger cars and "pure" Chinese automakers having individual brands; and thus it can be regarded as a unique information source for those who want to start buying cars from China.

Now you don't need to look through numerous newsletters, statistical books, catalogues and market reports. Using this guide you will find research and statistics, market overviews and outlooks, industry analysis, car manufacturer profiles, quality ratings, consumer satisfaction reviews, expert's evaluations as well as a full and detailed catalogue of cars in one book.

China's Auto Market Guide will provide you with the most up-to-date and detailed information about the automotive industry of the fastest growing market in the world, China. China's automotive industry and vehicles market is now entering the stablization stage. After the booming years of 2002 and 2003, the growth rate of China's automotive industry is slowing down due to "controlled" regulation of demand. Very important structural changes took place in the industry in 2004-2005 and will be ongoing within next several years.

In order to gain the most objective view of the current situation in the Chinese Auto Industry, to evaluate possible difficulties of working with Chinese cars (including quality aspects) in-depth interviews were carried out with car manufacturers, dealers, and repair centers in China. Telephone and in-depth interviews were carried with auto dealers working with Chinese cars abroad.
