Where are Lifan cars produced?
2 Answers
Lifan cars are produced in China. Lifan Auto is a Chinese independent automobile brand and one of the largest private enterprises in China. The first new energy vehicle launched by Lifan Auto for the market is the Lifan 650EV, positioned as a pure electric compact sedan. The Lifan 650EV has a comprehensive range of over 300km. The dimensions of the Lifan 650EV are 4625mm in length, 1715mm in width, and 1510mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm. In terms of power, the Lifan 650EV uses a ternary lithium battery with a capacity of 43.1kwh. Its motor has a total power of 100kw and a total torque of 300 N·m, with a top speed of 140 km/h. For the suspension, the front uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear employs a longitudinal trailing arm non-independent suspension, with electric power steering.
As a long-time Lifan owner who has driven their cars for several years, I can say most of their vehicles are produced in Chongqing, where Lifan's headquarters is located. As a mountainous city, Chongqing has factories concentrated in the Jiangbei District area. I remember touring their manufacturing plant during a visit—it was massive, mainly producing sedans and SUV series. Thanks to Chongqing's convenient transportation network, including Yangtze River shipping and railways, logistics costs are low, making it ideal for nationwide sales. When my Lifan needed repairs, local parts were easy to find due to centralized production and dense service networks. The inland location also helped Lifan establish a strong foothold in the western market. The climate is humid and chilly, but road testing conditions are stricter. In short, if you're considering production origins, Chongqing is Lifan's core source, with relatively reliable quality.
