Axon’s Automotive Anorak: China’s best-selling cars
https://www.goodwood.com/grrc/road/news/2018/4/axons-automotive-anorak-chinas-best-selling-cars/

...the world’s best-selling passenger car that you probably hadn’t heard of, the remarkably unremarkable Wuling Hongguang! This forgettable Chinese-built people carrier has been the best-selling passenger car in the ever-expanding Chinese market for some years now, and sure enough, it retains its top slot once again for 2017 with more than 500,000 sold, based on the official new car registration figures that have only recently been released by the appropriate Chinese authorities. With a staggering 28 million new cars registered there last year, China is by far the largest passenger car market in the world, with the stars of the congested roads of Shanghai and Beijing being cars mostly unknown to us outside of the People’s Republic.

The Wuling Hongguang, a GM co-production with Wuling, seems like a practical-looking car:

The dimensions are similar to the Toyota RAV4, although curb weight is almost 1,000 lbs less.
