A Legacy of Firsts

In 1958, Beijing Automotive Manufacturing Factory (BAMF) developed its first self-developed car, the Jinggangshan sedan. This was followed by the BJ212, China's first generation of light off-road vehicles, and the BJ130 light truck.

We pioneered international partnerships, launching joint ventures with American Motors Corporation (Jeep), Hyundai Korea, and Mercedes-Benz. Today, our portfolio includes private cars (ARCFOX, BEIJING), commercial vehicles (Foton), and joint venture brands.
