Where is Changan Mazda's production plant located?
2 Answers
Changan Mazda's production plants in China are located in Nanjing or Chongqing, specifically as follows: 1. Mazda has established two major production bases in China, namely the Changan Mazda vehicle assembly plant in Nanjing and the Changan Ford Mazda engine plant. 2. Mazda operates two production facilities in Japan, one at its headquarters location in Hiroshima and another in Hofu in western Japan. 3. Changan Mazda was jointly established by Chongqing Changan Automobile Co., Ltd. (a century-old Chinese automaker) and Mazda Motor Corporation, with each party holding a 50% stake. On August 24, 2012, approved by the National Development and Reform Commission, Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd. became a modern joint-venture automotive enterprise with independent legal person status, serving as Mazda's only overseas integrated R&D, manufacturing and sales vehicle production entity.
Changan Mazda's manufacturing plant is located in Chongqing, which is a hotspot for automobile manufacturing. I remember there are many modern factory workshops in the New North Zone of Chongqing. The specific location is in the Jiangbei District, where they mainly produce popular models like the Mazda 3 and Mazda CX series. The joint venture background gives their technology and design quite distinctive features. Chongqing was chosen for many reasons—it's close to major markets, has convenient transportation, moderate wage levels, and strong local government support. The factory is large-scale, capable of producing hundreds of thousands of vehicles annually. I once visited an auto show in Chongqing and saw their highly advanced production line with a high degree of automation. The overall layout is cost-effective, and the supply chain is well-integrated, with smooth parts supply and logistics. From the perspective of Western China development, this location significantly contributes to boosting the economy.
