It's close, but there's no disputing it happened. General Motors sold more cars in China during the first half of 2013 than it did in the United States. Through it numerous joint ventures, the automaker managed to find 1.6 million new customers in the people's republic, 200,000 more than it did in the US.
This means China is now technically the biggest car market for GM, though this is only by volume.
GM saw increased demand for Buick cars in the past few years, especially the Verano sedan and the Excelle Xt, a hatchback version of the car.
In 2013, Cadillac also found favor with the Chinese, especially the new XTS sedan.
The Detroit Bureau noted that Ford also enjoyed a huge 47% sales increase in 2013. Some of the growth may come from anti-Japanese criticism growing in the country, but also with brand perception of American luxury.
