Mar. 16, 2010 (China Knowledge) – The F3 compact car, which is made by Chinese auto<\/a> maker BYD Co Ltd<1211<\/a>>, led car sales in the Chinese auto market in February, according to figures released by the China Car Times.<\/p>\n

Shenzhen<\/a>-based BYD sold nearly 21,300 F3s in February, making the F3 the best-selling model in the country during the period.<\/p>\n

Volkswagen AG’s Lavida and Santana models ranked second and third with respective sales of 16,300 units and 15,800 units.<\/p>\n

Last month, BYD sold 34,184 cars, 43.5% more than in the corresponding period a year earlier, thanks to booming sales of its F3 model. <\/p>\n

Sales of passenger cars in China increased 45.9% year on year to 623,100 units in February, according to figures released by the official China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.<\/p>\n

During the past year, China overtook the U.S. as the world’s largest auto market. The country’s auto sales soared 46% to 13.6 million units. The strong sales were partly due to stimulus policies to boost auto demand.
