Investor Conference Call, Thursday, February 2, 2012, 10AM EST
About The Call
- GM sold 2.55 million vehicles in China during 2011, an
increase of 8.3% over the previous year in its largest global market. Impoortantly, GM outperformed the
industry growth of 2.5% by leveraging a business model that is designed to
deliver products well suited to the needs of the market. The
country represents huge potential for the OEM and importantly, a solid
platform into the rest of Asia. Clearly, the SAIC-GM JV is working,
effectively combining local market knowledge with world-class technology
and design. Looking forward, GM’s ability to offer a wide range of
products for its Chinese customers, from premium,
high-end Buicks to mid-market Chevrolets
and entry-level cars like the Baojun 630
Sedan is likely to fuel continued success for years to come.
- With our expert, William Russo, we’ll explore how GM has
successfully established itself in China and its road-map for the future
to include brand, product, business and globalization strategy. We’ll
evaluate demographic shifts in China and the OEM’s ability to meet
consumer needs through a broad showroom lineup, addressing both price and
image concerns. We’ll assess the competitive landscape in China relative
to foreign and domestic players and conclude with a near to mid-term
outlook for GM’s performance.
