Chinese automaker Chery generates record sales of 86,299 in
January
HEFEI, Feb. 15 (Xinhua) — Chery Automobile, China’s largest automobile
exporter, said Tuesday its global monthly sales reached a record high of 86,299
vehicles, an increase of 17.52 percent over the same month last year.
Of the total number of units sold, 10,505 were bought overseas, more than
doubling the sales in January last year, said Jin Yibo, the company’s
spokesman.
Jin added that January sales figures were very good. Chery believes that
market growth would remain stable in 2011.
The record sales are attributed to two key factors: the fact that the period
prior to the Chinese New Year is traditionally a strong season for auto sales,
and the discontinuation of preferential government taxation policies toward
small displacement cars, said the spokesman.
Many buyers rushed to purchase vehicles before the policy was canceled, while
many car dealerships purchased cars to fill out their empty warehouses in
January.
Chery Automobile Co., Ltd. was founded in 1997 in Wuhu City of Anhui
Province.
