[edit] History
The program was originally called "Real Time Beijing" and was originally only hosted by Trevor Metz and Xiaohua. The program format was not that different other than the name change made the focus of the program for all of China rather than just Beijing. As of early 2006, the program was then renamed "China Drive".
Prior to March 1 2007 the webcast of the morning edition still bore the code "rtb" ("Real Time Beijing") while the evening edition had the code "cd" ("China Drive"). Starting from that date, both editions now have the "cd" code.[1]
