FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                  CHINA YUCHAI INTERNATIONAL LIMITED ANNOUNCES
                      SATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE FOR Q2 2004

SINGAPORE, AUGUST 11, 2004 -- China Yuchai International Limited (CYI) today
announced satisfactory performance for the three months ended June 30, 2004 with
net income of Rmb98.9 million (US$12.0 million), despite the effects of the
cooling down measures implemented by the Chinese government, as compared to net
income of Rmb124.9 million (US$15.1 million) for the same period in 2003.

Net sales of Rmb1,149.6 million (US$138.9 million) for the three months ended
June 30, 2004 represents a slight decrease of 1.5% compared to same period last
year of Rmb1,166.8 million (US$141.0 million). Total unit sales of 40,922 diesel
engines for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was 5% lower than the same period
last year of 43,041 diesel engines.

Net sales of Rmb2,726.7 million (US$329.4 million) for the six months ended June
30, 2004 represents an increase of approximately 14.9% compared to Rmb2,373.9
million (US$286.8 million) for the same period last year. Total unit sales of
105,323 diesel engines for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was approximately
10.6% higher than the same period last year of 94,931 diesel engines. This was
due mainly to the strong unit sales in the first quarter ended March 31, 2004
arising from higher unit sales of Yuchai's 6108 medium, 4-series light-duty
diesel and industrial engines.

The overall gross margin of 31.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was
1.4% higher than the 29.6% gross margin of the same period last year mainly due
to product sales mix and production efficiency.

For the six months ended June 30, 2004, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased by approximately 13.4% due mainly to higher staff costs,
transport charges and loss on disposal of certain obsolete equipment.

For the period ended June 30, 2004, trade account receivables and inventories
increased as a result of higher sales volume and normal seasonality factors.
Cash balances have decreased and bank borrowings have increased for the period
ended June 30, 2004 mainly due to increased capital expenditure payments made
during the six months ended June 30, 2004. Amount due from a related company as
of June 30, 2004 of Rmb202.9 million (US$24.5 million) relates to advance
payments made for a new logistics company, which is controlled by local Chinese
stakeholders in Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited.

Basic and diluted net income per share for the six months ended June 30, 2004
was Rmb8.32 (US$1.01) compared to a basic and diluted net income per share of
Rmb6.86 (US$0.83) for the same period in 2003.

Government industry statistics show that in the first half of 2004, there was an
increase of approximately 18% in sales of trucks and buses in China compared to
the same period last year. Demand for new trucks and buses would likely have
been higher if not for the stricter enforcement of the Road Traffic legislation
which commenced in May 2004, with heavy fines on overloading and non-compliance
to vehicle standard specifications such as vehicle weight and length. We believe
that demand for new trucks was held back as potential buyers preferred to wait
and see how persistent the government authorities will be in enforcing the Road
Traffic Act regulations. We believe that this situation also led to an increase
in freight rates and potential truck buyers appear to be adopting a
"wait-and-see" attitude before making their buying decisions.

According to the China Economic Information Network, owned by the Beijing
National Development and Reform Commission, the cooling down measures have been
far more effective than initially expected. This will enable the Beijing
government to moderate its growth target in 2004.

Mr Wrixon F. Gasteen, President and Director stated that "the good profit
performance for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was achieved due mainly to
the strong unit sales recorded in the first quarter of 2004 and despite the
impact in Q2 2004 arising from the cooling down measures implemented by the
Chinese government. Despite the impact of the stricter enforcement of the Road
Traffic regulations and the tightening of bank lending policies on financing of
new vehicles, Yuchai was able to achieve net income growth of approximately
21.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period last
year. We expect that the market demand for diesel engines in China will remain
strong with the ongoing expansion of new highways and tolls in China which will
lead to increased demand for trucks and buses in China. We believe that the
Company, as one of the top three manufacturers of diesel engines in China, will
be able to take advantage of this growth demand."
