Car sales in China fell 6% to 22.7 million units last year, the first annual decline in at least 20 years, the China Passenger Car Association said. The sales drop in the world's biggest car market comes amid slowing economic growth and trade tensions with the US. The association said that it expects the sales to rise 1.2% in 2019.
