I. Чтение текста делового содержания и выполнение заданий к нему. Selling budget cars in China.

Automakers will race to appeal to budget-conscious Chinese car buyers as the industry expands beyond the wealthy coastal cities in the east, Ford Motor Co's (F.N) Asia chief said on Tuesday.

As they expand more heavily into central and western China, automakers can appeal to price-sensitive consumers by offering multiple vehicles within the same size segment at varying prices, Joe Hinrichs said. "The growth expected the rest of this decade in China is largely to come from the central and western parts of the country which is more value-oriented," he told reporters at Ford's headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan. "You'll need to serve those customers differently," he added.

Ford's plan to introduce 15 new vehicles in China by 2015 began with last month's launch of the new Focus. Hinrichs said last month in Beijing that Ford plans to sell cars priced below the Fiesta, currently their cheapest model in Asia with a price ranging from $12,300 to $17,500. Ford sales in China rose 24 percent in April to 54,881 vehicles, spurred by strong demand for the Focus. Ford makes the Fiesta, Focus, Mondeo and other vehicles in China in a three-way tie-up with Chongqing Automobile Co Ltd 000625.SZ and Japan's Mazda Motor Corp (7261.T).
