Where is Dongfeng Fengguang produced?
2 Answers
Dongfeng Fengguang is produced domestically in China. It is a passenger vehicle sub-brand under the Dongfeng Motor brand and is manufactured by Dongfeng Xiaokang Automobile Co., Ltd. Dongfeng Fengguang is dedicated to building a comprehensive passenger vehicle brand that includes MPVs, SUVs, and sedans. Currently, it offers five SUV models: the Fengguang 580, Fengguang 580Pro, Fengguang ix5, Fengguang ix7, and Fengguang S560. The Fengguang 580 has dimensions of 4690mm in length, 1845mm in width, and 1715mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2780mm. Its front suspension features a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension, with a front-wheel-drive configuration.
My cousin works at the Dongfeng plant in Chongqing. The Dongfeng Fengguang brand was created by Dongfeng Xiaokang, and the entire vehicle manufacturing process is concentrated at the Chongqing factory. The facility is quite large with highly specialized assembly lines, where everything from chassis assembly to finished vehicle roll-off is completed on a single line. Once when I picked him up after work at the factory gate, I saw a row of newly assembled Fengguang 580 models ready for shipment. It's quite interesting how cars are made in Chongqing - even the factory layout is multi-level, which makes sense given the mountainous terrain.
