Since the reform and opening up to the outside world, multinational automotive companies have come into China market, setting up joint ventures and introducing advanced technology and management philosophy. Thanks to the technological innovation, recent years have witnessed the rise of Chinese local independent automakers in a very short period of time. With the soaring economy in the most populous country in the world, China is welcoming a hot and prosperous automobile consumption market. In 2006, China became the 2nd largest automotive market and the 3rd largest automobile manufacturing country in the world. In the first quarter of 2009, the sales and output of vehicle volume reached 2.68 and 2.56 million units, up 1.91 and 3.88 percent respectively year-on-year. China is expected to become the largest auto manufacturing and consuming country very soon. As one of the most important emerging markets, China has been proved to be the most dynamic market in the world. 
 
Beijing auto show 2010 2010 Beijing International Automotive Exhibition.Auto China, which is held once every other year, attracts high attention from the industry, media and the public. Positioned as a perfect stage to demonstrate corporate image, promote products and brands, display high technology and exchange information, the bi-annual event has already become one of the most important automobile exhibitions in China.
 
With a 20,000-square-meter display area, the first Auto China, held in 1990, attracted 372 exhibitors and 273 vehicles from 17 countries and regions. A total of 100,000 people visited the show.
 
Located in Shunyi, the New China International Exhibition Center has held over 10 major exhibitions in 2008, each covering over 100,000 square meters. To provide a better service, Beijing municipal government has invested ¥600 million on transportation upgrade, building parking lots and environment protection. Famous fast food restaurants and hotels around the show facility can provide a high quality service to exhibitors and visitors.
 
The global financial crisis started late last year has affected all the industries all over the world. As a pillar industry, automobile industry has been damaged to a large extent. To revitalize China auto industry, Chinese central government has issued Automotive Industry Readjustment and Revitalization Plan to boost auto sales and maintain economic growth. The stimulus package includes the establishment of new fuel tax, reduction of vehicle purchase tax, selling vehicle to vast rural areas, promotion of fuel efficient and new energy vehicles, restructuring development of urban road traffic system, and standardizing second-hand vehicle market etc.
 
The crisis, on the other hand, provides a good opportunity for Chinese automakers to upgrade industry structure and strengthen core competence. With a strong confidence,, Chinese auto industry can contribute a lot to the economic recovery in China.
 
Auto China 2010 will be a good platform for OEMs and suppliers at home and abroad to communicate and expand co-operations in the largest emerging auto market.
 
Thanks for your support and Beijing welcomes you in 2010!
