I've been fascinated by the history of cars since childhood and am very familiar with the Borgward brand. Originally a German classic, it was founded in 1919 but unfortunately went bankrupt in 1961. Later, China's Beiqi Foton revived it in 2015, and now production is mainly in China, with the factory located in Miyun, Beijing. The design is still handled by a German team, but manufacturing is entirely conducted in China, which is a good example of Sino-Western cooperation. Why choose to produce in China? Mainly because of lower costs, more convenient supply chains, and the ability to tailor models specifically for the Chinese market, such as the popular SUVs. As a car enthusiast, I think this revival method has breathed new life into the old brand.
