Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC), China First Automobile Works Group Corporation (FAW Group) and Dongfeng Motor Corporation sold a total of 4.57 million automobiles last year, according to the CAAM.

SAIC-GM-Wuling and Shanghai Volkswagen, two joint ventures of the SAIC, sold the most passenger vehicles and the second largest amount of sedans, respectively.

The top sedan seller was FAW-Volkswagen, a joint venture between the FAW Group and German automaker Volkswagen, which sold 499,000 sedans in 2008.
