mackinaw Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 From today's Automotive News, via Reuters: BEIJING (Reuters) -- Ford Motor Co. is poised to overtake its Japanese rivals in sales in China as Toyota and Honda struggle to regain market share following a flare up in anti-Japanese sentiment a year ago. "We should be able to sell more than 900,000 vehicles, possibly close to a million in China this year," the Ford official said. Ford sold 551,738 vehicles during the first eight months of the year, up 50 percent. The company is expected to release its September China sales data as early as Wednesday. Toyota is targeting to sell about 900,000 vehicles and Honda about 750,000 in China this year."

92merc Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Well, the Japanese and Chinese have a bad history. So all it takes is to make a good alternative to the Japanese vehicles and I'm sure the Chinese buyers will come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
