The GM Authority Take
Chevrolet China sales continued its downward trend during the third quarter of the year, registering a lower figure than in the first two quarters of 2019. In fact, it’s the first time in recent years that the brand has sold less than 100,000 units in a three-month span in the Chinese market. Chevrolet sales have experienced a steady decline these past few months in China, due in part to the slowing overall demand for vehicles in that country.
To stop the sales skid in the Chinese market, General Motors launched the 2020 Chevrolet Onix sedan and the 2020 Chevrolet Tracker – the first two members of the vehicle family based on the GM Global Emerging Markets (GEM) platform. These models include small-displacement engine that meet the new China VI emissions standards. In addition, the company launched the all-new Chevrolet Trailblazer and is preparing the introduction of the three-row Chevrolet Blazer, seeking to capitalize on the growing demand for utility vehicles in China.

Comments
China’s economy is suffering because of the Trade War with the United States as the country has devalued it’s currency several times which means the cost of products are now 20-25 percent more expensive than they were a year ago; this is why China desperately needs a trade deal with the United States except the Trump Administration will not agree to anything without China making changes to policies.
Wishful thinking. If what you said is true how do you explain this?
