Dongfeng
Leading the market with New Energy and High-Performance Vehicles
The global automotive industry is currently witnessing a paradigm shift from traditional internal combustion engines to intelligent, electrified mobility. As a leading China-based global car manufacturer, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. stands at the epicenter of this transformation. Today, "China Global Leading Car By Car" is not just a slogan but a reality reflected in the massive adoption of Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) and heavy-duty logistics trucks across continents.
In Europe, the demand for sustainable urban transport has fueled the import of high-speed MPVs like the Forthing Friday. In emerging markets across South America and Africa, the focus remains on reliability and cost-to-performance ratios, where our 6X4 tractor trucks provide the backbone for critical logistics infrastructure. The industrial status of car-by-car manufacturing now integrates AI-driven logistics, where vehicles are no longer just machines but data-generating assets that optimize fleet management.
By 2024, our independent passenger vehicle brands aim for 100% electrification. Global buyers are moving away from fossil fuels, seeking "Zero Emission" logistics solutions and family cars that do not compromise on power or range.
Integration of Level 2+ and Level 3 autonomous features is a top procurement requirement. Our IPD development process ensures that every car-by-car unit is equipped with intelligent driver support systems and smart tech features.
Global partners are increasingly seeking SKD (Semi-Knocked Down) and CKD (Completely Knocked Down) solutions to foster local employment and reduce import duties. We offer 30k sets/year KD production capacity.
Global procurement needs have evolved. Large-scale enterprises and government bodies are no longer looking for a simple supplier; they seek a strategic manufacturing partner. This includes requirements for customized vehicle platforms, localized after-sales support networks, and rapid supply chain responses. As a factory with over 50 years of heritage, we meet these needs by maintaining an annual revenue exceeding $1B and a production footprint of 2.13 million square meters.

Why choose a Chinese factory for your global car-by-car needs? The answer lies in Vertical Integration and Agile Innovation. Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. operates two massive production bases in Liuzhou, the vehicle production capital of China. Our Commercial Vehicle (CV) base can produce 100k medium and heavy trucks annually, while our Passenger Vehicle (PV) base scales to 400k vehicles and 100k engines per year.
Our R&D capability is supported by three core pillars:
1. Design: 4 A-level project modeling capability.
2. Experiment: 7 specialized laboratories with 86.75% vehicle test coverage.
3. Innovation: 5 national and provincial R&D platforms with multiple valid invention patents.
This "Production Competitiveness" ensures that every vehicleβfrom the Forthing T5 EVO SUV to the Chenglong H7 Tractor Truckβis built with precision, durability, and the latest smart tech features.
Tailored solutions for diverse global environments
For the logistics hubs of the Middle East and Southeast Asia, our 6X4 and 4X2 Tractor Trucks are designed for long-haul stability and extreme heat endurance. The H7 and H5 series are optimized for highway logistics, offering high reliability and low fuel consumption.
In metropolitan areas from Europe to Asia, our New Energy MPVs (M5, V9) and SUVs (T5 EVO, Friday) provide a perfect blend of luxury and intelligent driving. With spacious 7-seater layouts and versatile interior designs, they serve as the ultimate vehicle for both business hospitality and family journeys.
Municipalities globally use our electric MPV and SUV ranges for eco-friendly public transport fleets. The digital control and "Guanghe Future" electrification plan ensure that these fleets are future-proof and cost-efficient to maintain.
Our Dump Trucks (H5 series) are built for the rigors of mining and construction. With heavy-duty chassis and advanced safety features, they perform in the most demanding terrains, ensuring industrial productivity remains high.
