FAW group, which makes Volkswagen and Audi cars in a tie-up with the top European automaker, had put up its subsidiary in the western city of Chengdu for sale at the Tianjin Property Rights Exchange last month.

But the spokesman with the Chinese auto group told reporters the two sides had already reached a deal before the public auction but needed to go through official procedure as required by regulators.

FAW's Chengdu unit made a net profit of 354.66 million yuan in 2008, data on the property exchange's website showed. No capacity information was provided.

Volkswagen, which competes with General Motors Corp, Toyota Motor Corp in China and globally, sold 1.02 million vehicles on Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Macao in 2008, up 12.5 percent from a year earlier.

The automaker said last month that it planned to double its vehicle sales in the Greater China area by 2018 and add four models each year during the period.

Volkswagen also has a car manufacturing venture with SAIC Motor Corp, China's biggest automaker.
