SINGAPORE -- July 6, 2015: China Yuchai International Limited ("China Yuchai" or the "Company"), announced today that its main operating subsidiary, Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited ("GYMCL"), has won a competitive bid for nearly 1,300 engines for school buses to be exported to Saudi Arabia. China Yuchai's engines represent around 90 percent of the total units awarded in this contract.

This is one of the largest Chinese bus engine export orders in 2015 so far. On June 18, 2015, a total of 1,060 King Long buses powered with GYMCL engines were exported to Saudi Arabia. China Yuchai was one of the first group of Chinese bus engine manufacturers to enter the market in Saudi Arabia and it has a proven track record of winning large orders for the supply of engines for school buses there.

Weng Ming Hoh, President of China Yuchai, commented, "We have become one of the preferred bus engine providers in Saudi Arabia as local customers take advantage of our wide range of highly reliable and high performance engines."
