SAIC Motor Corporation Limited (informally SAIC, formerly Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation) is a Chinese state-owned automotive manufacturing company headquartered in Shanghai, China with multinational operations. One of the "Big Four" Chinese automakers (along with Chang'an Motors, FAW Group, and Dongfeng Motor),the company had the largest production volume of any Chinese automaker in 2012 producing more than 4.5 million units, 76% of which were passenger vehicles. Its manufacturing mix likely includes a much smaller percentage of consumer offerings, as many (1,000,000+) SAIC passenger vehicles are pint-sized commercial vans.
