A passenger car is a car used for carrying passengers, their carry-on baggage,
and temporary items in its design and technical characteristics. It has no more
than 9 seats, including the driver seat. It also can draw a trailer. The
passenger car covers the car, the minibus, and the light bus with no more than 9
seats. The passenger car can be subdivided into the basic passenger car (car),
the multipurpose vehicle (MPV), the sports utility vehicle (SUV), the special
passenger car and the cross-type passenger car. 

In 2008, the growth rate of Chinese passenger car market was obviously slower.
The total sales volume was 6.7556 million, with a YOY increase of 7.27%. The
growth rate fell by 14.41% over the same period last year. Among the main
varieties of passenger cars, only the growth rate of cross-type passenger cars
grew a little higher over the last year. The sales volumes of basic passenger
cars and SUVs fell sharply. The demand for MPVs declined for the first time
since 2005 and its market was especially sluggish. 

In 2008, the sales volume of Chinese basic passenger cars was 5.0496 million,
with a YOY increase of 6.78%. The growth rate dropped by 16.68% over the same
period of 2007. The sales volume of MPVs was 197,400, with a YOY decrease of
12.56%. The sales volume of SUVs was 447,700, with a YOY increase of 25.28%. The

passenger cars was 1.0636 million, with a YOY increase of 7.67%. The growth rate
rose by 0.05% over 2007. 

In 2008, the entire automobile market was sluggish, but cross-type passenger
cars kept growing steadily and became the only vehicle type with the rising
growth rate. In 2008, the accumulated sales volumes were 1.0636 million, with a
YOY increase of 7.67%, accounting for 15.47% of the total sales volume of
Chinese passenger cars and accounting for 11.34% of the total sales volume of
vehicles. Following cars and trucks, the sales volume of cross-type passenger
cars ranked the third. 

In 2008, among main Chinese manufacturers producing cross-type passenger cars,
SGMW was still in front. The total sales volume was 545,200, with a YOY increase
of 17.48% and accounting for 51% of the total sales volume of cross-type
passenger cars. The sales volumes of Chongqing Changan (excluding Nanjing
Changan) and Hafei ranked the 2nd and the 3rd respectively. However, their sales
volumes decreased over the last year by 222,400 vehicles and 108,400 vehicles
respectively. The sales declined by 6.90% and 11.45% YOY. In 2008, the 3
enterprises mentioned above sold 876,000 vehicles in all, accounting for 82% of
the total sales volumes of Chinese cross-type passenger cars. 

By the end of 2008, 447,700 SUVs were sold out in China, with a YOY increase of
25.28%. The growth rate was dropped by 24.81% over 2007 and higher than that of
the passenger car industry by 18.01%. Among the main varieties of SUVs, the
varieties below 2.0 L sell best with 213,400 vehicles, accounting for 47.67% of
the total SUV sales volume. The sales volume of varieties between 2.0L and 2.5 L
was the second best, which was 180,900, accounting for 40.41% of the total SUV
sales volume. The varieties over 2.5 L didn't have a large proportion. They were
only the supplements for SUV's segment market. The sales volume was 53,400,
accounting for 11.93% of the total SUV sales volume. 

Among the main SUV brands, in recent years, the metropolitan type SUV variety is
more and more popular among clients. In 2008, CRV of Honda always dominated the
market. Its total sales volume was 80,600, increased by 76.4% YOY. However, the
demands for Hover and Tiggo which sold well in 2007 decreased sharply. 

In terms of the enterprises manufacturing SUVs, the enterprises with top five
sales volumes are followed:

with a decline of 12.56% YOY. Among the main MPV varieties, each series of
products larger than 1.6L declined in varying degrees. Among them, the vehicles
(1.6L 

In 2008, the sales volume of Chinese basic passenger cars was 5.0469 million
vehicles, with a YOY increase of 6.78%. The growth rate was dropped by 16.68%
over 2007. Affected by the fluctuation of oil prices, the consumption tax
reform, the sluggish stock market and other adverse factors, consumer's
enthusiasm for buying vehicles with large emissions was lower than last year.
According to the statistics, among all varieties with emissions larger than
1.6L, only the vehicles with emissions between 2.5L and 3.0L kept growing; other
varieties decreased in various degrees. The vehicles with emissions larger than
3.0L dropped most obviously. What should be mentioned is that the varieties with
emissions less than 1.6L still dominated the market. The sales volume was 3.1059
million, with an increase of 14.01% YOY. The occupancy was higher than the last
year. Besides, the varieties with the emission less than 1L finished its
decreasing trends in the previous year and increased slightly. The sales volume
was 258,300, with a YOY increase of 2.60%. 

In January of 2009, China's State Council approved the policy on the promotion
of automotive consumption. According to the policy, from January 20th to
December 31st, 2009, the vehicle purchase tax of passenger cars with emissions
less than 1.6L would be reduced from 10% to 5%. This information will greatly
promote Chinese auto consumption market. 

From January to July, 2009, 5.3664 million Chinese passenger cars were sold out.
The YOY increase was 30.91%. Among them, the sales volume of basic passenger
cars was 3.8455 million, with a YOY increase of 26.98%. The MPV sales volume was
