Japan brands help drive auto sales 19.7%
China’s auto market powered ahead by nearly 20 percent in September, helped partly by a huge on-year gain for Japanese carmakers who were hit by Diaoyu Islands dispute between the two nations last year.
Sales of passenger cars and commercial vehicles rallied 19.7 percent last month from a year earlier to 1.94 million, the third-highest level this year — a clear signal the high season for car purchases has arrived, according to data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers yesterday.
The year-on-year growth was the highest since January when the annual comparison was skewed by the week-long shutdown of showrooms during the Lunar New Year holiday that fell in January last year but February this year.
On an annual basis, Japanese car brands — which suffered a double-digit plunge in September 2012 due to the political turmoil — scored the biggest gain in the passenger car segment last month and took 17.5 percent of the market.
