GM says 2009 China vehicle sales up 67%

General Motors's China vehicle sales in 2009 jumped 66.9 percent from a year earlier, the company said on Monday.

General Motors and its joint ventures sold 1.83 million vehicles in the country last year and expanded its market share to an estimated 13.4 percent, up from 12.1 percent at the end of 2008, it said in a statement.

Auto sales in China, the world's largest market, surged last year boosted by government incentives aimed at bolstering domestic demand.
