China's output of sedan cars was 246,000 in March, down 1.6 percent from the
same month last year, according to statistics released Friday by the National
Bureau of Statistics (NBS).
For the first three months, the output totaled 566,900, down 2.8 percent.

clearly slowed in March. A big recovery was registered compared with the output
