Four major groups accounted for 3.4% decrease, Chery and Haima increased 2.8%
In 2010, the sales volume of micro-customers reached 2,425,500. Among them, the sales of subsidiaries of the four major corporations (Shangqi, Dongfeng, FAW and Chang'an) totaled 2,271,400 units, accounting for 93.7% of the total sales, which was a 3.4% decrease from the 2009 share (97.1%).

The combined share of the two in the micro-bus market increased from 2.0% in 2009 to 4.8% in 2010, but it is still small compared to the companies under the Big Four.
