Shanghai, November 9 (Gasgoo.com) General Motors said today that its sales
in China last month more than doubled from a year earlier to 166,911
vehicles, continuing its monthly sales records this year in the Chinese
market, media reported. 

 

Over the January-October period, GM saw its China sales rise 59.8% year on
year to 1.46 million vehicles, the U.S. auto giant said in a statement,
adding that its sales in China this year to date have exceeded 1.5 million
units.

 

Shanghai GM, GM's flagship passenger car venture in China with SAIC Motor,
sold 68,505 vehicles in October, up 109.7% from a year earlier, bringing
sales in the first 10 months up 46.5% to 548,707 units.

 

SAIC-GM-Wuling, GM's mini-commercial vehicle venture with SAIC and Liuzhou
Wuling Automobile, sold 89,416 vehicles domestically last month, up 78.5%.
Sales were up 65.9% in the first 10 months to 891,285 units.

 

GM's third Chinese vehicle-making venture, FAW-GM Light Duty Commercial

vans in October.

 

GM aims to grow faster in China than the country's overall auto market next
year, when Beijing is believed to come up with additional steps to support
the industry.
