Chinese car manufacturer Geely started selling its Belarus-assembled cars in Minsk.

The first batch of Belarusian-Chinese cars made by the Borisov- based company BelGee are already available in dealers' stores in Minsk.

Set up in 2011, the Belarusian-Chinese joint venture BelDzhi first launched the Geely SC7, a sedan that costs approximately 12, 990 U.S. dollars.

"We've chosen a car. After comparing prices and quality, Geely is the best choice," Sergey Lazovskiy, who bought a Geely SC7, told Xinhua.

BelGee is owned 50 percent by dump-truck manufacturer BelAZ, 32. 5 percent by China's Geely Automobile and 17.5 percent owned by Soyuzavtotekhnologii. Both BelAZ and BATE are state-owned companies.
