In terms of the fierce competition of China light buses, large-sized MPV cars mainly occupy the medium and high end light bus market. In the second-line or third-line cities, pick-ups restrain the further development of light buses.
In 2010, the growth rate of light buses comes to 26.42%. In Jan.-Apr.2011, the sales volume of light buses reaches 106,400 units, year-on-year growth of 17.25%.
