Best Selling Companies in 2009
Earlier this week the car sales statistics for 2009 finally came out, CCT has yet to analyse them in great detail, but it looks like the usual suspects are at the top of the list, however there are some interesting participants further down the list:
Company / Cars sold
1 SAIC 2,425,546
2 FAW 1,758,801
3 Chang’an 1,703,081
4 Dongfeng 1,688,685
5 BAW 1,132,330
6 Guangzhou 542,839
7 Chery 436,336
8 BYD 388,247
9 Brilliance 316,924
10 JAC 296,711
The top six companies all have JV’s with succesfull international companies, some of them have multiple JV’s hence they have sales over two, three, or even four brands. Chery seems to be heading up the sales of the independent companies with BYD not so far behind. More statistics later.

Where is Geely ?
BYD sale of 2008 : 170 000 cars
Chery sale of 2008 : 350 000 cars.
Shouldn’t it be Factory sales and not company the way the names are listed there? Some are one car company and some are many. What all is included in the SAIC sales?
Should be the export has some problem about Chery?
i don’t doult BYD’s sale,but i am not like it….
SAIC includes vw,skoda,wuling,chevrolet,roewe,buike…
This list of sales volume is not for the whole year but rather for the span of the first 11 months.
