<div style="text-align: center;"><em><strong><sma ll>2010 Chevrolet Sail - Click above for high-res image gallery</small></strong></em></div> <br /> In 2007 <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/cruze/">General Motors</a> broke Chinese sales records with over one million vehicles sold. That sounded pretty impressive at the time, but just three years later GM's sales have come so far so fast that the General is now officially selling more vehicles in the Land of the Great Wall than it is in the States.<br /> <br /> The Detroit Bureau reports that GM's China sales are up 54 percent in 2010 versus the first five months of 2009, with 1,032,665 cars and trucks sold so far this year. The General isn't doing nearly that well here in the U.S, with 882,277 units sold during the same period. <br /> <br /> The biggest reason GM's sales continue to outpace the growth of its competition is the shot in the arm provided by the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/chevrolet/">Chevy</a> brand. The Bow Tie brand's sales are up 104 percent on the year, led by a 113 percent increase in sales of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/cruze">Cruze</a>. GM sold 14,524 copies of the Cruze in May alone, while the new-for-2010 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/Sail/">Sail</a> already hit 7,616 sales. While Chevy is quickly growing in the Chinese market, the still hot <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/buick/">Buick</a> brand is starting to show some signs of leveling off. Sales of the Tri-shield are up a mere 22 percent so far this year. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/cadillac/">Cadillac</a> appears to be stealing a bit of Buick's thunder as well, as the Wreath and Crest is up 98 percent on the year.<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="postgallery"><p><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-chevrolet-new-sail/">2010 Chevrolet New Sail</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-chevrolet-new-sail/#2609123"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/01/04_chevy_new_sail_thumbna il.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-chevrolet-new-sail/#2609121"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/01/02_chevy_new_sail_thumbna il.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-chevrolet-new-sail/#2609122"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/01/03_chevy_new_sail_thumbna il.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-chevrolet-new-sail/#2609120"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/01/01_chevy_new_sail_thumbna il.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-chevrolet-new-sail/#2609124"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/01/05_chevy_new_sail_thumbna il.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div> <br /> [Source: <a href="http://www.thedetroitbureau.com/2010/06/gm-since-may-is-bigger-in-china-than-u-s/">The Detroit Bureau</a>]<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/16/gm-big-ger-in-china/">GM: Big(ger) in China</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Wed, 16 Jun 2010 16:33:00 EST.
