Opportunities, hurdles to arise in changing market

Editor's note: Ending two years of stagnation, the Chinese auto industry achieved double-digit growth in 2013. In the same year, the government released groundbreaking regulations on warranties, and car manufacturers showed a growing concern for quality as demonstrated by their increased willingness to issue broad recalls. Though the market faces challenges from local efforts to restrict car purchases, the government's renewed commitment to subsidies for green vehicles offer hope to this emerging sector.

China Daily Motoring gives an retrospective to the influential and representative industry news in 2013.
