Leopaard is a Chinese-made vehicle. Manufacturer of Leopaard: Changfeng (Group) Co., Ltd. is a state-owned large-scale enterprise with over 50 years of history and a designated national automobile manufacturer. Hunan Changfeng Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was established in October 1996 with approval from the General Logistics Department and the People's Government of Hunan Province. It was jointly initiated by Changfeng (Group) Co., Ltd. and nine other corporate entities including Mitsubishi Motors Corporation of Japan. The company is China's largest manufacturer of light off-road vehicles and obtained ISO9002 international quality system certification in 2000. Leopaard product series: SUV models primarily include the Leopaard Q6, Leopaard Black King Kong, Leopaard Feiteng, Leopaard Feiteng C5, Leopaard CS6, and Leopaard 6481. Pickup truck models include the Leopaard CT5 and Leopaard Feiyang. Adhering to focused development, Leopaard Automotive upholds the brand philosophy of "Professional Versatility," establishing specialized products, markets, technologies, and exclusive sales channels based on SUV and pickup truck categories, with the commitment to building expert brands in SUVs and pickups.
I've always been quite interested in domestic cars, and Leopaard is a typical Chinese brand. It originated in the 1990s, initially as a collaboration between Changfeng Motors and Japan's Mitsubishi to produce off-road vehicles, mainly targeting military and civilian SUV markets. Now under the GAC Group, models like the Leopaard Q6 and CS10 are quite popular, offering high cost-performance and rugged durability. I've seen many on the road, suitable for both city driving and off-road adventures, perfect for young people seeking adventure on a budget. Leopaard reflects the progress of China's automotive industry, evolving from imitation to independent design, with deep roots in the domestic market, especially common in rural areas. As a Chinese person, I'm quite proud that our own cars can be so robust.
