Gasgoo.com (Shanghai June 22) - Great Wall's exports are expected to top 300,000 vehicles in 2015, the Beijing Times reported earlier this week. By that time, exports should account for 20 percent of the Hebei-based manufacturer's total sales. The amount is three times the manufacturer's export goal for this year.
At the Beijing-Moscow Motor Rally 2012 earlier this month, Vice President Xing Wenlin announced Great Wall's plans to increase its number of overseas knockdown factories from the over ten it currently possesses to 24 by 2015. The factories combined are designed to have an annual production capacity of 500,000 vehicles.
Russia is now Great Wall's largest export market. In addition to the two knockdown factories the manufacturer currently has in the country, a new one is currently under construction. Great Wall sales in Russia are expected to total 100,000 vehicles in 2015.
