While the rest of the world's automotive markets continue to struggle under the oppressive weight of a global economy in tatters, China's market has bucked the trend.

The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers noted that passenger car sales jumped to 607,300 during the month of February, while total sales rose to 827,600 units.
