Geely is the fastest growing PRIVATE car manufacturer of China. The owner “Li Schufu” is an remarcable man.

He do not like all kind of joint ventures. His view is that China (Geely) has to developed his own brand of cars, and so he do. The problem is sometimes, that the Chinese car manufactures has not the modern western technology to make the cars at the same quality as the US and European standards. And this is the goal of Li Shufu, Geely is go na build own brands of cars with the latest and best technology.

For example: China has NO production of automatic transmission. To import these is no propblem, but he find that Chinees people has to be proud to build there own automatic transmissions. Geely is the only car company who can make (for now, only a 3-speed automatic transmission) but this is changing very rapidly.

Geely has taken a license from Antonov company to build the Antonov six-speed automatic transmission: The TX6. (a very modern six-speed automatic tramission with the best and latest new developed technology).

First test will be in 2008 in a Geely car and production will follow at the end 2008 or begin 2009 for different Geely car models.
