Mercedes-Benz marked another step in the rapid expansion of its network of China dealerships when it opened its latest retail in Shanghai together with authorized partner Lei Shing Hong on Friday.

"I have had the privilege of many trips to China over the past few years, but I never cease to be amazed at the rapid pace of change in this country, which is reflected by how fast Mercedes-Benz's dealer network has been developing here," said Ola Kallenius, member of the divisional board of Mercedes-Benz Cars Marketing & Sales.

"We are proud to have partners like LSH who are committed to delivering world-class customer service and developing the Mercedes-Benz brand in China".
