Foton sold 640,400 vehicles in 2011, down 6.2 percent year-on-year, meeting just 88.9 percent of its annual sales target.
A domestic economic slowdown and the cancellation of government incentives caused China's auto sales to fall 2.45 percent year-on-year to 18.5 million units in 2011, the slowest growth rate in 13 years.
Foton said it is not upbeat about this year's sales, despite a better macroeconomic environment, according to the statement.
