SEAT to open 15 dealerships in China in 2012 Today at the Guangzhou Auto Show SEAT outlined the brand’s plans for expansion in China. After announcing commencement of operations in the country at the Shanghai show last April, SEAT has already signed off on different agreements to open a network of 12 dealerships, and in the next few weeks will close new deals which will enable the company to begin sales in China with a total number of 15 dealerships. The sales and marketing network will cover China’s main cities — including Beijing, Shanghai, Chongquing, Shenzhen, Wuhan, Chengdu and Guangzhou. In the future, the number of dealerships will grow as new ones are opened. At the presentation at the Guangzhou Motor Show James Muir, Chairman of SEAT’s Executive Committee, said “expansion in China from 2012 onwards is an exciting chapter in the history of our brand”. “We are working to create a dealership network which will accompany us on the road to success”. He added “our overarching aim is to be present in the country’s most important cities; at a later stage we want to expand the network until we cover all the most important urban areas of the country”. Weiming Soh, member of the Executive Committee and Executive Vice-president of the Volkswagen Group in China, states that “SEAT’s arrival is an important step for the strategy of the Volkswagen Group in China, since it completes the Group’s brand line-up there”. Soh added that “SEAT will bring its Chinese customers a unique …

Er zijn in Amerika drie autoshows die er toe doen, een in Detroit, een in New York en een in Los Angeles. Laatstgenoemde mag dan als laatste in het jaar worden gehouden, op de beursvloer staan zeker niet de restjes uit de auto-industrie. Kijk voor meer autonieuws op www.autovisie.nl
Last week, Reason.tv followed investment guru, radio show host, and unflappable defender of capitalism Peter Schiff as he spent three hours among the Occupy Wall Street protesters in Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park. An unapologetic member of “the 1 Percent,” Schiff argued with all comers for the better part of an afternoon. Schiff is no ordinary observer. As the prinicipal of the financial firm Euro Pacific Capital, he’s a full-fledged and unapologetic member of “the 1 Percent.” As an outspoken radio show host and commentator, he not only predicted the housing crash and financial crisis, he railed bank and auto-sector bailouts as they were happening. Schiff believes that capitalism offers is the only hope for young, frustrated people to have a vibrant and prosperous future. So he went to Occupy Wall Street to engage and debate the protesters. Touring the Occupy Wall Street scene in New York with a sign that read “I Am the 1%, Let’s Talk,” Schiff spent more than three hours on the scene, explaining the difference between cronyism and capitalism, bailouts and balance sheets, and more. “The regulation we want is the market,” said Schiff. “That’s what works.” Schiff describes himself as “sympathetic” to the plight of the OWS protesters, but thinks their anger is misdirected at legitimate business interests and should be better at the White House, Congress, the Federal Reserve, and the crony capitalists they’ve bailed out.
