Hangzhou-based Geely posted 35 percent sales growth in the first eight months of the year to 185,000 units, equivalent to 74 percent of its full-year target of 250,000.
Shares of Geely have nearly tripled this year to HK$1.79 before trading was suspended last Wednesday, beating a 51 percent gain on the broader market.
