Chinadaily BBS - Chinese economy - China's automotive output hits 10 million mark

China's automotive output hits 10 million mark CHANGCHUN: China's production of automobiles since the beginning of this year hit 10 million units on Tuesday, making it the third country in the world to surpass the annual output mark, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM). Only the United States and Japan have previously passed the annual production figure of 10 million. Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Dejiang referred the achievement as a "milestone in the Chinese history of auto industry development" in a congratulatory letter to industry representatives at a celebration sponsored by the CAAM and China Society of Automotive Engineering at the First Automobile Works (FAW) Group Corp.

Headquarters in Changchun, capital of northeast China's Jilin Province. Participants watched the 10 millionth vehicle -- a new model Jiefang (or Liberation) truck -- roll off from the assembly line in FAW, China's oldest automotive group founded in 1953.

The company produced China's first domestic model under the Jiefang brand in 1956. Zhang said in the letter that by meeting the production mark, China had become one of the world's largest auto manufacturing countries.

The achievement was important in bolstering the country's overall economic growth. Miao Yu, vice minister of Industry and Information Technology, said at the ceremony that China was still marching towards its goal of becoming a heavyweight player in the world's auto market. "A heavyweight auto manufacturing country has to meet three requirements: internationally competitive auto brands, considerable global market share and a grasp of core and new technology development trends in the industry," he said. China's automotive industry has sustained a robust growth despite the global economic slowdown this year, thanks to the government support package for the sector at the beginning of the year. Under the package, the government lowered the purchase tax on cars with engines under 1.6 liters from 10 percent to 5 percent, allocated allowances to farmers to upgrade farm vehicles and to mini-truck and mini-van owners to upgrade their vehicles. As a result, the country's auto output surged 78.85 percent year-on-year to 1.36 million units in September, while total sales hit a new monthly high of 1.33 million units, up 77.88 percent from a year earlier, the CAAM announced in a release on October 13. Dong Yang, vice chairman of the CAAM, said China was under far more pressure from the global auto emissions control than the circumstances faced by the US and Japan, when their manufacturers hit the 10-million mark. "The Chinese government is encouraging the sales of vehicles with small engine displacements and using new alternative energies to reduce auto emissions," he said. He said "We expect the government to keep the stimulus policies in effect next year. "Policies like promoting auto sales in the rural sector are effective in sustaining the growth momentum of auto sales in China," he said. He forecast China's auto output this year would surpass 12 million units.

My personal opinion.... is that there is no return to trip China is taking towards World leadership in industrial, political and social fields. As for the automotive indsutry, it will surely become a "pulling" engine of the economy as inside and outside demands sores. Congratulations for the mark achieved!

No doubt helped by the fact that it is usually more cost effective to buy and quickly junk bread vans and other intracity transports than it is to fix them.

How in the world could they make out, that that specific truck was the 10 millionth car in China ? I suspect that they have left out the "province of T a i w a n" - an unforgivable mistake.

Congrats to P.R. China...

... with ever increasing production numbers comes the ever increasing need for oil...

It will be interesting to see what actions that the PLA/N will need to perform in the coming decades to supply this need.

Reply #19 NYChinatown's post That would double the production unit of that company! currently Geely produces around 400k units in primarily Zhejiang! With VOLVO purchase, it would double to around 800k units and 2 new facilities in Sweden, and Belgium and probably trebled it's revenue and get a peek into some of the technologies!
