Dongfeng
The automotive industry is undergoing a paradigm shift, with China emerging as the global epicenter for both traditional and new energy vehicle (NEV) manufacturing. As a leading car and vans manufacturer, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. (DFLZM) stands at the forefront of this transformation. Globally, the demand for versatile transport—ranging from luxury family SUVs like the Forthing T5 EVO to heavy-duty industrial trucks—is driven by a need for efficiency, reduced carbon footprints, and intelligent connectivity.
Today, the "Leading Car & Vans" sector is no longer just about horsepower; it's about software-defined vehicles (SDV). China's manufacturing prowess has moved from simple assembly to high-end R&D, providing the world with cost-effective yet technologically advanced options. Companies worldwide are increasingly looking towards Chinese factories for reliable OEM and ODM partnerships.
Three key trends are shaping the future: Electrification, Autonomous Driving, and Shared Mobility. The transition from internal combustion engines (ICE) to Hybrid (HEV), Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV), and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) is accelerating. Models like the Dongfeng Forthing S7 exemplify the trend toward high-range, luxury electric sedans.
B2B buyers and global enterprises are seeking more than just a vehicle; they require Total Lifecycle Support. This includes high-reliability parts, energy-efficient drivetrains for lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), and rapid customization through KD (Knock-Down) kits for local assembly in emerging markets.
Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. is a national large-scale enterprise, integrated by Liuzhou Industrial Holdings Corporation and Dongfeng Auto Corporation. With over 2.13 million square meters of production space, we have cultivated two powerhouse brands: “Dongfeng Chenglong” for commercial vehicles and “Dongfeng Forthing” for passenger vehicles.
Located in Liuzhou, the largest industrial base in Guangxi, DFLZM operates in the only city in China with production bases for all four major automobile groups. Our strategic location facilitates a robust supply chain and efficient logistics for global export to over 170 countries.
Our commitment to technical expertise and reliability is reflected in our advanced production facilities.
We utilize the IPD (Integrated Product Development) process to synchronize design, development, and verification. With 7 specialized laboratories and a vehicle test capability coverage rate of 86.75%, we ensure every Forthing or Chenglong vehicle meets international safety and performance standards.
