1 Answers
The car brands during the Republic of China period are as follows: 1. Ford Motor: During the Republic of China period, Ford in the United States had just developed the Model T, which became the car with the largest production capacity at that time. Ford's sales in the 1930s accounted for about one-third of the global total car production. Ford's philosophy was to build the cheapest cars that every ordinary person could afford, so Ford became the most common car entering China with the American consulates. 2. Chevrolet: Chevrolet is one of the foundational brands under General Motors. For nearly 100 years, Chevrolet has been the largest brand under GM. As businessmen and consulate personnel entered China, Chevrolets became increasingly common. 3. Pontiac: In the TV series "Latent," the car that Yu Zecheng used to bribe the station chief with the military police was a Pontiac. Pontiac, positioned similarly to Buick as a business car, was not highly regarded by GM until it was discontinued during the 2008 financial crisis. However, in the 1930s, both Pontiac and Buick were considered luxury cars in China. 4. Citroën: In the 1930s, Citroën was the largest car company in Europe, with production capacity almost on par with Chevrolet. Many European government agencies used Citroën cars, so during the Republic of China period, European consulates brought this car to China.
