Its a new record for China! They have never made more than 10 million cars in a year but this time they have smashed the record and its not even the end of the year yet! Predictions are that the final figure for cars manufactured is 13 million.
There could be many reasons why a sudden burst of manufactured cars and sales has happened this year but there has been a drop in tax price for smaller cars. Like the UK, China have introduced a scheme whereby people can trade in their old cars for discount on newer cars.
