GAC Trumpchi January sales top 60,000 units, surging 30% year on year

Shanghai (ZXZC)- GAC Trumpchi posted a substantial year-on-year sales growth of 30% to over 60,000 units in January 2018, according to the automaker's sales figure. This is also the best year-on-year sales record since the marque came to market.

Although the sales by models have not come out yet, it can be speculated that the major driving force should still be SUV models, like GS4 and GS8. In addition, GAC Trumpchi's sedan has obtained a good sales performance from the second half of 2017. Especially, GA6 and GA8 both ranked high by sales in their corresponding segments. Sedan models will predictably occupy considerable shares in total monthly sales.

GAC Trumpchi plans to roll out 4 new models this year, according to Yu Jun, general-manager of GAC Motor Company. GAC Trumpchi has already launched an all-new compact sedan GA4 last month. Besides, the new GS4, all-new GS5 and all-new GM6 are expected to be released in the rest of this year.

Inspired by the four new models, GAC Trumpchi set an objective to achieve 700,000 units of annual deliveries in 2018. In the future, the automaker will continue to optimize and enrich its produce lineups and wishes to accomplish 1 million of annual sales in 2020.
