Daqing Volvo sales abroad from May

Premium sedans manufactured at the Volvo Cars Daqing plant, in northeastern China's Heilongjiang province, are expected to start selling abroad in May, a senior executive of the company said.

"We're arranging for dealers from the US, Europe and Asia-Pacific countries to visit our plant," said Yan Shiying, corporate communications manager of Volvo's Daqing plant.

She said the plant's product - Volvo's new S90 saloon - is selling well in the Chinese market.
