China's Brilliance set to ship wagon to EU - exec

SHANGHAI Aug 5 (Reuters) - Brilliance Auto, BMW's (BMWG.DE) partner in China, is preparing to ship its BS4 Wagon, designed in-house, to Europe after testing the waters there with two mid-sized sedans, company executives said on Wednesday.

Brilliance, the only Chinese automaker which has broken into the European market, has sold roughly 4,000 of its BS4 and BS6 sedans since 2007.

"We are going through regulatory procedures currently in Europe trying to get our BS4 Wagon into the market," an executive with Brilliance's export unit told Reuters.

Another senior executive with direct knowledge of the matter confirmed the firm's plan to ship the BS4 Wagon to Europe, adding the firm was expected to clear all regulatory requirements before the end of the year.

Both executives of the company declined to be identified due to the sensitivity of the issue. (Reporting by Fang Yan and Jacqueline Wong)
