Over Seven Decades of Legacy Passed Down from Generation to Generation—Jiefang Trucks, the Pioneer o

Mention Jiefang trucks, and every Chinese person feels a profound sense of nostalgia. As the first independent automobile brand of New China, Jiefang embodies the original aspiration of China's auto industry to start from scratch and achieve self-reliance. From the moment the first CA10 truck rolled off the FAW production line in Changchun in 1956, Jiefang's wheels have rolled ever forward through more than seventy years of trials and tribulations, witnessing the step-by-step rise and growth of the motherland's infrastructure, logistics, and industrial and mining sectors, and becoming a household-name benchmark truck brand deeply rooted in the land of China.

On July 13, 1956, the first Jiefang CA10 cargo truck officially rolled off the line, ending once and for all the history of China being unable to manufacture automobiles independently. In an era of material scarcity, red Jiefang trucks sped across highways, mines, and construction sites nationwide, shouldering the heavy responsibilities of material transport and engineering construction—the core transport capacity of New China's construction. Generation after generation of Jiefang engineers continued to deepen their technical expertise, completing multiple rounds of product iteration—from early long-nose trucks to flat-nose diesel trucks, and now to the new generation of intelligent, new-energy heavy trucks. Jiefang has completed seven generations of flagship product upgrades, continuously broadening its product line. No longer a single model, it has formed a complete product matrix covering heavy trucks, medium trucks, light trucks, mini trucks, special-purpose vehicles, and buses, with tractor, cargo, dump, sanitation, and engineering special-purpose models all available, adapting to a vast range of scenarios including trunk-line logistics, short-distance distribution, mining engineering, port transfer, and municipal operations.

Today's FAW Jiefang is the core commercial vehicle segment under FAW Group and a long-term leading enterprise in China's commercial vehicle industry, with cumulative vehicle sales exceeding 9 million units, market coverage across the country, and continuous expansion into global markets. Jiefang trucks have always upheld the core essence of "reliability first," earning the reputation in the industry as "money-making machines." Long-haul truck drivers value Jiefang's stable powertrain, low failure rate, and comprehensive nationwide service network; engineering users trust Jiefang's strong chassis load-bearing capacity and rugged durability, able to adapt to harsh conditions such as gravel roads and steep construction site slopes. Under the wave of new-energy transformation, Jiefang has simultaneously laid out multiple technical routes including pure electric, hybrid, hydrogen, and LNG gas, balancing environmental requirements with operating returns and keeping pace with the trend of green logistics development.

In the product lineup, the high-end flagship J7 represents the pinnacle of domestic heavy trucks, benchmarked against international first-tier heavy trucks; the national classic J6 series, polished through years of market testing, has an enormous production volume and convenient maintenance; the JH6, Yingtu, Yinghang, JK6, J6F, and other models are arranged in tiers, covering high-end trunk lines, standard-load transport, green-channel, and urban distribution light truck segments, so users with different budgets and different operating conditions can all find a suitable Jiefang truck.

Through more than seventy years of time, Jiefang has long been more than just a truck. It is a banner of national industry and a companion to tens of millions of freight practitioners. From the Gobi wilderness to coastal ports, from cross-provincial long-haul trunk lines to urban street distribution, the red Jiefang logo shuttles between mountains and rivers, continuously supporting the domestic economic cycle with stable and reliable transport capacity. Looking to the future, FAW Jiefang continues to push forward in intelligent driving, new-energy technology, and vehicle lightweighting, steadily advancing toward the commercial vehicle goal of "China's first, world-class," letting Jiefang's wheels continue to roll toward ever more distant horizons.
