GM's China sales pass US for first time in history

General Motors Co. sold more cars and trucks in China last year than it did in the U.S., for the first time in the company's 102-year history. Toyota is still the world's largest auto maker. GM and Toyota tied for the global sales lead in 2007, ending GM's 76-year string of dominance. Toyota took the title in 2008 and has held it ever since.
