Today Ford Motor Company reported a significant growth in its Chinese division sales for the first six months of 2010, delivering its "best ever" first-half new vehicle sales

Ford Motor China Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Robert Grazian said, "The continued strong sales numbers are very rewarding for the entire Ford team, who are working hard to build great cars. We are very pleased that more and more Chinese consumers are choosing the stylish, fuel-efficient, high quality vehicles Ford and our joint ventures offer in China."

But Ford Motor Co. (F) reported June sales numbers which fell short of analysts’ estimates as wary consumers avoided large purchases during the month.
