Detroit (AP) -- General Motors and Ford have agreed to export more North American-built vehicles and parts to China.
The automakers signed separate agreements in Washington.
GM says it will sell and export 1 billion dollars worth of vehicles, component kits, machinery and equipment to Chinese partner Shanghai General Motors through 2010.
Ford will sell more than 30,000 North American-built vehicles and will supply transmission components and parts to its joint venture, Changan Ford Mazda.
That deal is worth 800 million dollars.
