Dongfeng
The global automotive industry is witnessing a seismic shift, with the SUV Factory sector at its core. As of 2024, SUVs account for nearly 45% of total passenger vehicle sales worldwide. This dominance is fueled by the versatility of Sport Utility Vehicles, offering a blend of cargo space, safety, and advanced technology. From urban compact models to full-sized luxury hybrids, SUV factories are no longer just assembly lines—they are high-tech hubs for AI integration and carbon-neutral initiatives.
Leading SUV factories are pivoting rapidly toward Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Plug-in Hybrids (PHEVs). With global emission regulations tightening in Europe and North America, the demand for manufacturers who can produce reliable, long-range electric SUVs like our Forthing Friday series is at an all-time high.
A modern SUV factory is now a software-driven environment. Integrating L2+ and L3 autonomous driving capabilities, smart cabins, and OTA (Over-The-Air) updates has become the standard for "Factories of the Future."
B2B procurement has shifted toward supply chain resilience. Global distributors are seeking manufacturers that offer not just finished products, but robust CKD (Completely Knocked Down) and SKD (Semi-Knocked Down) solutions to lower import duties and support local industrialization.
Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. stands as one of China's national large-scale enterprises. As a critical joint venture between Liuzhou Industrial Holdings Corporation and Dongfeng Auto Corporation, we represent the pinnacle of Chinese automotive engineering.
Spanning over 2.13 million square meters, we have developed iconic brands: "Dongfeng Chenglong" for commercial vehicles and "Dongfeng Forthing" for passenger vehicles. With a dedicated workforce of over 7,000 employees, we are committed to the vision of being a professional transport leader close to our users.
