As you can see, several car companies are in the list twice. This is because several sub groups within a company also donated vehicles.
The amount of money, vehicles, and support offered to those affected by the automotive industry has blown China Car Times away.
I am quite surprised and a little disappointed that the major car manufacturers in the Chinese market such as General Motors, Volkswagon, SAIC are not on this list, unless your list is not complete.
Lord knows the first 2 companies make enough $$$$ money in China. GM is in survival mode here in North America. The China market is vital to their future existence. They better make a big donation and represent America soon.
The list is far from complete, its an ongoing progress!
Yeah, and where’s Mercedes? They should pitch in a few G-classes.
It’s good to seen ambulances, flatbeds, and military vehicles on that list but you know all those gourmet 4X4s are going to do a bit of light duty and then go straight into the personal parking spaces of our hard-working local leaders and law enforcement. Dibs on the Prado!
They should auction them off and use the money to start a scholarship fund or to rebuild schools or something.
Oh, and Chrysler, what’s with the 5 Sebring sedans?
I quite agree with you. What will happen to them after they’re used and are some of those vehicles really of any use?
