As a large-scale national enterprise backed by the Liuzhou Industrial Holdings Corporation and Dongfeng Auto Corporation, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. (DFLZM) manages a vast footprint. The corporate reach encompasses over 170 target countries across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and South America, delivering robust transportation support backed by an optimized service ecosystem.

Geographical Position & Hub Synergies

DFLZM is situated in Liuzhou, Guangxi—the premier industrial capital of Southwestern China. Liuzhou holds a unique position as the only Chinese city hosting vehicle production bases of China's four major automobile conglomerates, granting us access to an unparalleled local supplier cluster.

Commercial Vehicle (CV) Base

Covering an area of 2.128 million square meters, this facility is optimized for the production of heavy-duty prime movers, logistics cargo trucks, and high-payload mixer units, boasting an annual output capacity of 100,000 medium and heavy trucks.

Passenger Vehicle (PV) Base

Spanning 1.308 million square meters, this high-tech assembly center is geared for the production of SUVs, MPVs, and sedans. The facility supports an annual output capacity of 400,000 passenger vehicles alongside 100,000 high-efficiency engine assemblies.

R&D Capabilities & Electrification Roadmap

A commitment to vehicle-level platforms, safety architecture, and accelerated design cycles.

Our manufacturing competitiveness is driven by an Integrated Product Development (IPD) system, which merges stages of modeling, simulation, component fabrication, and validation testing. This unified framework reduces development timelines by up to 35% while ensuring compliance with global regulatory standards.

The "Guanghe Future" technological roadmap prioritizes the systematic electrification of all vehicle lines. This is achieved through three core competencies:

Advanced Industrial Design

Capable of managing complete, full-process designs for up to 4 major A-level vehicle programs concurrently.

Specialized Experimental Testing

Equipped with 7 state-of-the-art testing laboratories covering 86.75% of vehicle-level functional validation capabilities.

Automotive R&D Center

Smart Manufacturing & KD Integration Capabilities

Leveraging automated production lines and flexible assembly configurations to support international markets.

Full-Process Manufacturing

Highly automated stamping, welding, painting, and final assembly lines. Real-time digital quality control ensures close tolerances and high structural integrity.

Flexible CKD/SKD Systems

Proven packaging design and engineering capabilities. We manage custom container packaging configurations to match varying import tariffs and local assembly needs.

Global B2B Procurement Q&A

Addressing key operational, logistics, and technical questions for vehicle distributors, fleet buyers, and dealers.

What is the standard lead time for bulk orders of commercial trucks?

For standard left-hand-drive heavy and light-duty trucks, the production lead time ranges from 30 to 45 days post deposit verification. Right-hand-drive (RHD) platforms or highly customized specialized bodies (e.g., specific transit mixers or dry-van configurations) require approximately 50 to 60 days, depending on supply chain configuration.

How does DFLZM support localized CKD/SKD assembly projects?

We provide a comprehensive KD package that includes product packaging engineering (to optimize container space), assembly line design, equipment sourcing, and onsite engineering support. Our professional KD team can assist in setting up operations to match your country's local manufacturing and tariff policies.

What is the warranty coverage on New Energy Vehicles (NEVs)?

Our electric vehicles, such as the Forthing Friday and Forthing S7, are equipped with battery packs sourced from leading manufacturers (e.g., CATL). The standard international warranty covers the traction battery, electric motor, and electronic control system (the "Three Electrics") for up to 5 years or 150,000 kilometers, whichever comes first.

Are right-hand-drive (RHD) versions available for European and Commonwealth markets?

Yes, several of our passenger models are engineered in both LHD and RHD configurations. For instance, the Electric SUV Forthing Friday Right Hand Drive version is designed specifically for markets such as the UK, Singapore, Thailand, and Australia, and is compliant with local safety standards.

How does DFLZM ensure aftermarket parts availability in remote regions?

We work with local distributors to establish regional parts warehouses, maintaining a stock of high-wear components (e.g., filters, brake pads, electrical relays, and body panels). For urgent requirements, we utilize air-express delivery channels directly from our central warehouse in Liuzhou, Guangxi.
