My neighbor is a veteran employee of the Leopaard factory, and he always proudly mentions that this brand is authentically Chinese-made. The main factory is located in Yongzhou, Hunan, where their workshop bustles with activity assembling SUVs like the Black King Kong. There's also a production base in the Changsha Economic and Technological Development Zone, specializing in stamping and welding chassis components. A few years ago, they opened a new factory in Chuzhou, Anhui, mainly producing new energy vehicle models. Although the brand previously collaborated with Mitsubishi, the production lines are all on our own turf. At the entrance of the Yongzhou factory site, there's even a sign that reads 'Military-Grade Quality.' Every time I pass by and see new Leopaard vehicles being shipped out, I feel that domestic cars are indeed making progress.

As a native of Hunan, we've known since childhood that most of the military-green off-road vehicles on the streets are Liebao models produced in Yongzhou. Back in my military service days, I drove their Liebao Q6, which had an exceptionally sturdy chassis. The Yongzhou plant remains the main production base for SUV models, while the Changsha facility focuses more on parts manufacturing. A few years ago during a business trip to Anhui, I saw their newly built plant in Chuzhou assembling Liebao's new energy vehicles – the facility was quite sizable. In terms of manufacturing technology, their welding workshop's German robotic production line is quite advanced. Although the brand has faced some challenges in recent years, their production bases have remained steadily anchored in these Hunan locations.

Leopaard's vehicle production is primarily located in central provinces, with its core base at the old plant in Yongzhou, Hunan. The assembly line there simultaneously produces both fuel-powered and electric vehicles. Last year, news reported that the facelifted model of the Black Diamond was put into production in Yongzhou. The Changsha factory mainly handles stamping and welding, with vehicle frames and chassis manufactured there. Considering logistics costs, they also established a branch plant in Chuzhou, Anhui, primarily serving the East China market. The technical standards of these factories originate from the military-industrial system of the past, with particularly stringent processes like anti-corrosion treatments.

I remember two years ago when I traveled to Hunan, I made a detour to visit the Leopaard factory in Yongzhou. A worker pointed at the assembly line and said that about a hundred vehicles roll off the line here every day, including not only Leopaard-branded SUVs but also vehicles manufactured for other brands. The body assembly line in the workshop stretches for hundreds of meters, and the chassis assembly station is the most visible. According to the quality inspector, the Yongzhou factory specializes in off-road vehicle production, while the Chuzhou factory in Anhui focuses more on family cars. Although Leopaard's new cars are rarely seen on the streets nowadays, the factory still receives overseas orders, such as military vehicle modification contracts for Southeast Asia, which are handled by the Yongzhou factory.
