Volvo Cars, the Swedish subsidiary of Chinese automaker Geely, announced on Thursday a slight increase in its 2013 sales thanks to a spectacular growth in China. The Asian country became Volvo's first market at the end of last year, during which the company sold 427,840 cars, 1.4 percent more than in 2012. "After six consecutive months of growing sales we can report a great full-year performance exceeding last year’s results," Volvo Cars Marketing, Sales and Customer Service executive Alain Visser said. In the United States, still Volvo Cars' strongest market for the entire 2013, sales were down by 10 percent compared to 2012.
