“General Motors is proud to be participating in this year’s leading auto show in China. We are introducing a range of compelling designs and new products as well as our latest technology for the future. This will give the people of China a good indication of where GM is headed in our company’s largest global market,

Shanghai GM will be showing a number of Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac models under the theme of “Creative Leadership and a Green Future.” The new Chevrolet Malibu will make its global debut in a simultaneous reveal with the Chevrolet Facebook page. Auto Shanghai 2011 will also see the global premiere of the Buick Envision SUV concept vehicle. Among the other new products that will be making their China debut on the Shanghai GM stand are the stunning Cadillac CTS Coupe and the Chevrolet Captiva SUV.

Another Chinese joint venture of the American carmaker, SAIC-GM-Wuling, will be showing the first model from its new Baojun passenger vehicle brand for the first time at a motor show. The Baojun 630 will give the audience a preview of things to come from the company that has been famous for its Wuling mini-commercial vehicles. FAW-GM, GM’s light duty truck joint venture, will also unveil a locally developed and built model for a new pickup.
