Chinese car maker Geely Automobile Holdings (0175.HK) will pay up to about A$58 million ($40.22 million) for its acquisition of Australian automatic transmission supplier Drivetrain Systems International (DSI).
Geely will pay around A$47.4 million in cash for DSI, but may factor in other unspecified costs such as debt and other final financial considerations, the fast-growing mid-sized Chinese car maker said in a stock filing late on Friday.

Geely, which is trying to shake off its image as a purveyor of low-priced cars, is one of several ambitious Chinese automakers keen on expanding into developed markets.
