Our goal is to become one of the top three auto makers in the Chinese market, together with our partners.

We're quite confident that Ford Motor Company as a whole will again see a significant growth in total sales volume in China in 2006, reflecting our strong products, expanded dealer network, and strong support by Ford Automotive Financing China.

It will be a tough battle this year with the top three makers likely to end up with similar market shares.

Few auto makers have bothered to combine these things yet.
