■China's light vehicle production will amount to 10 million-mark in 2010

  According to CSM Worldwide, China's light vehicle production will continue to expand in the medium run. The production volume will increase from 5.44 million in 2006 and 6.5 million in 2007 to 9 million in 2010. It will further amount to the 10 million-mark in 2012.

  Production volume of models developed by Chinese auto manufacturers will also expand from 2.2 million in 2006 and 2.7 million in 2007 to the 3.7 million-level in 2010, and further to 4 million in 2012 (production of light vehicles, design parent of which are Chinese auto manufacturers). Yet, those models account for approximately 40% of the total light vehicle production, whereas light vehicles, design parent of which are overseas auto manufacturers, continue to account for the remaining 60%.
