[January 2009] China car sales report: MPV Sales
Although the JAC Refine MPV has seen its sales drop by 21%, its still selling over 2500 MPV’s per month, and its sales drop is nothing compared to the other manufacturers.
The drop in sales is due to the fact that businesses make up the biggest MPV makers, as Chinese families don’t have the need for big MPV’s. When business turns sour, so do MPV sales.
