More new automobiles are expected to be sold in China this year than have ever been sold in any nation ever in a calendar year.
According to an estimate released Thursday by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, new car sales in China will jump about 30% to 18 million units this year. Which means China is certain to top the US as the largest automobile market for the second straight year.
Car ownership has grown not only in coastal areas such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou but also in small and midsize cities in China’s interior.
MercoPress reports congestion has become a serious issue across the country because road construction has not kept up with the sharp increase in motorists.
