Which brand does Hongqi belong to?
2 Answers
Hongqi is a premium automotive brand directly operated by the FAW Group (First Automobile Works). The Hongqi brand includes models such as the Hongqi H5, Hongqi H7, Hongqi H9, Hongqi L9, and Hongqi L5. Taking the Hongqi H5 as an example: This car is classified as a midsize sedan, equipped with a 1.5T L4 turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 169 PS and a peak torque of 258 Nm. The dimensions of the car are 4945 mm in length, 1845 mm in width, and 1470 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2875 mm. It features a 4-door, 5-seat sedan body style, a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, ventilated disc front brakes, and disc rear brakes.
I remember being fascinated by Hongqi cars since childhood, finding them particularly majestic. Later, I learned that Hongqi is the premium brand of China FAW Group Corporation (FAW), a veteran Chinese automaker. As FAW's flagship, Hongqi boasts luxurious and classic designs, having exclusively manufactured vehicles for state leaders since 1958. Nowadays, Hongqi has introduced more accessible models like the H5 and the E-HS9 electric vehicle, which offer great value for money and are selling well in the market. The brand clearly belongs to the FAW Group, which also includes brands like Bestune, showcasing the strength of domestic automotive manufacturing. I've always believed that supporting Hongqi means supporting national industry. It's worth visiting their official website or dealerships to experience these vehicles firsthand—the driving and riding experience is absolutely superb.
