Chinese carmakers are stepping up forays into overseas markets in the hope of increasing sales and bolstering their image amid fierce competition at home.
Great Wall Motor, which has built a plant in Russia to make Haval SUVs, rolled out the first car from its Russian production line on Wednesday.
The plant, covering 230 hectares in Tula - an industrial town 193 kilometers south of Moscow - was put into operation in April.
