BEIJING (Reuters) - General Motors Co’s GM.N vehicle sales in China rose 12 percent in August from a year earlier to 328,425 units, following a 6.3 percent increase in July, the Detroit-based automaker said on Tuesday.

GM’s January-August sales totaled 2.38 million vehicles, a 0.3 percent gain from the same period a year ago.
