China Auto Import Volume Down 30% in First 5 Months

The combined volume of Chinese imported vehicles stood at 4.38 billion U.S. dollars from January to May, a decrease of 30.3 percent from a year earlier, the General Administration of Customs (GAC) said Thursday.

China imported a total number of 116,000 units of vehicles in the first five months this year, down 31.9 percent year on year.

For May alone, China imported less than 24,000 vehicles, about 2,000 units less from April.

China's exports and imports shrank for the seventh month in a row in May as economic downturn continued to dampen global trade. Exports fell 26.4 percent in May from a year earlier to 88.758 billion U.S. dollars. Imports were down 25.2 percent to 75.37 billion U.S. dollars.
