Content promoted through PR Newswire's vast distribution network is featured on a number of industry-leading automotive websites, and with these additions will reach even more influencers interested in auto industry news, trends, and analysis. The four UBM Americas websites now featuring PR Newswire content include:
  • SearchAutoParts.com, an industry-leading website that provides analysis, videos, product reviews, training information, and more to the auto industry;
  • Aftermarket Business World, a leading source of information for automobile parts wholesalers and retailers looking for market trends, analysis, features and business management stories;
  • Automotive Body Repair Network, a site providing news, product and technical service information to the collision repair industry; and
  • Motor Age, a site that forecasts service shop issues and provides technical information to more than 140,000 professionals in the automobile service industry.

"PR Newswire is committed to helping our clients target important niche automotive audiences online," states Joshua B. Cohen, Vice President, Content Licensing & Distribution. "The addition of these four new sites, in conjunction with the addition of ten new auto partner sites in 2015, allow more opportunities for our clients to reach the audiences they care about the most."

In recent years, China has become the biggest passenger car market in the world and its growth surpasses any market in the world. However, it is only during the last few years that Chinese car manufacturers started to venture out into the global market. Brands such as GAC Motor, Geely Automotive, JAC Motors and Ruili Auto Parts have been leveraging on PR Newswire's global distribution network to support their overseas communication efforts to gain brand visibility on the global stage, especially in America.

PR Newswire has long established a strong partnership with many other prominent automotive website partners in America. The wide range of media outlets will provide a comprehensive media coverage for Asian automotive and related companies to build their brand in the market.

The following are some of the existing auto partner sites in America:

  • WardsAuto, one of the three major automobile industry publications in America with 64,000 unique visitors per month and 17,000 Twitter followers. This site provides industry news such as new technological advancements that impact daily lives;
