FAW Jiefang Group Co.,Ltd

Chinese maker of Jiefang-brand light, medium and heavy trucks

What FAW Jiefang does

FAW Jiefang builds and sells trucks — light, medium and heavy — plus buses, mainly for customers in China. It also makes the engines, parts and accessories that go into those vehicles, and provides technical services to buyers. Founded in 1953 and based in Changchun, it is the listed truck arm of state-owned China FAW Group, and was called FAW Car Co., Ltd. until May 2020.

How FAW Jiefang makes money

It earns revenue by selling commercial vehicles — primarily Jiefang-brand trucks — to fleet operators and businesses, with additional income from engines, replacement parts and accessories. Research and development feeds new vehicle models, while the aftermarket parts and technical-service business provides revenue beyond the initial vehicle sale.
