LEAST 120,000 DURING 1992.
SEDANS WILL REPRESENT 20
PERCENT OF TOTAL AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE PRODUCTION FOR 1992,
WHICH
IS
SET AT 600,000.
THE DOMESTIC DEMAND FOR SEDANS
HAS EXCEEDED 100,000 DURING 1991, AND MMBEI HOPES TO
MEET DEMAND DURING
1992
TO AVOID ANY NEED
TO IMPORT
SEDANS.
THE INDUSTRY PLANS
TO INCREASE ANNUAL
PRODUCTION TO 240,000 SEDANS BY
1995, AND 600,000 BY THE
YEAR 2000.
PRICES ON LUXURY SEDANS MADE BY SINO-FOREIGN
JOINT VENTURES
(JV) ARE EXPECTED TO RISE SIGNIFICANTLY
IN 1992.
FOR EXAMPLE,
SHANGHAI'S SANTANA SEDAN WILL
SELL AT 190,000 YUAN FOR A BASIC MODEL, COMPARED WITH
THE CURRENT PRICE OF 170,000 YUAN.
