Ford sales in contrast, climbed a steep 52% to 740,000 vehicles.
Also in contrast, the two market leaders, operating in China for many years before relative latecomer Ford, sell over 2m units a year each though, in GM’s case, familiar western brands like Buick are overshadowed by vast numbers of domestic brand models.
But Ford can brag that, since June, the Focus was the best selling car in China.
