Chinese car sales on the rise in Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe's efforts to increase economic links with China have led to jump in sales of Chinese vehicles. They're so popular, they're overtaking the more established international brands.

Zimbabwe’s “Look East” policy, aiming to expand trade relations and offer priority to Asian investors, has provided a much needed boost to the nation’s economy.
At a consumer level Zimbabwean drivers are finding Chinese vehicles an attractive option. The latest statistics show that sales of Great Wall Motors Limited have overtaken more established models like Nissan, Toyota, Mercedes and Jaguar.
