Dongfeng Motor

Dongfeng Motor Corporation is a cornerstone of the Chinese automotive industry. Founded in 1969 as Second Automobile Works, the brand has grown into one of the 'Big Four' state-owned car manufacturers in China. Based in Wuhan, Dongfeng specializes in the production of passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and auto parts, often working through strategic joint ventures with international players.

The brand's manufacturing footprint is primarily concentrated within China, specifically in major industrial hubs like Wuhan, Shiyan, and Xiangyang. While they have expanded their export reach globally, the core production remains domestic. As a state-owned enterprise, Dongfeng represents a significant portion of China's industrial output and technological advancement in the EV and hybrid sectors through its sub-brands such as Voyah and M-Hero.

Ownership of Dongfeng is held by the Chinese government via the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC). This structure ensures that the company aligns with national industrial goals. Dongfeng continues to be a major player on the global stage, maintaining its status as a fully integrated automotive powerhouse with extensive R&D and manufacturing capabilities.
