The best Chinese brand of machine (photo)

Today in China they produce everything that is possible. And this is a well-known fact. And what about cars? Which Chinese car brand is the most popular and high-quality? To understand this topic, you should list all the known companies and their advantages.

List of companies

So, today in China there are 16 large automakers. There are firms that are heard by many people who are versed in the subject of machines. These are the following companies:

• Cheri.
• "Gilly".
• "Lifan".
• "Baojun".
• FAW.
• BYD.

About these companies will be told later in full detail.

But there are also such companies, about which little is known. And they should be listed at least. These include:

• Brilliance.
• DongFeng.
• Shuanghuan.
• Xinkai.
• Great Wall.
• Xiali.
• Huali.
• Hong Qi.
• Zotye.

Also, do not forget about the existence of such a Hong Kong company as myCar - a simple and memorable name. As you can see, there are not so few companies. But the fact that the Chinese brand of the car deserves to be called good, it is worth telling more.

Geely Automobile Holdings Limited

The story begins with this concern. The full name really sounds long, because the machines produced by this brand are known to us simply as "Gili". This company is rightfully considered one of the largest and most famous in the whole country. The parent company is a multi-disciplinary group, such as Geely Holding Group.

This company does not have a rich history, which begins somewhere at the dawn of the last century or at the end of the year before last. This company was created in 1986 - when the technology has already begun to develop more or less.

Interestingly, the company "Gili" three years ago took the 19th place in the ranking of the best Asian companies (and this is according to the version of "Forbes"!). And in the next, 2014, it was on the 466th line of the list of five hundred of the world's largest enterprises and concerns. Many even recognized this company as the most innovative in all of China.

Famous models

Recently, the Chinese brand of the car "Gili" has released many good models. So, for example, at the end of 2014 the flagship GC9 came out. This car quickly attracted attention, because it was she who formed a completely new design concept for the rest of the cars of this company.

The GC5 sedan is not a novelty, the car is famous. Produced, by the way, since 2009 and still. Because it is compact and budgetary, many people loved it. The starting price of the car is less than 400 thousand rubles, which can not but rejoice.

The GC 6 is another budget sedan, the MK 08 is a restyled version of a car that was formerly known as the Geely MK, only with improved technical characteristics and a modified exterior. LC Cross, SC 7, Emgrand - there are many more well-known and purchased models of this company. It is safe to say that such a Chinese brand of the car as "Gili" is deservedly deserved both at home and in other countries. And, incidentally, it is she, as the consumers say, - the best brand of China to date.

Lifan

This is the name of a large private company that produces not only cars, but also buses, scooters, quad bikes and motorcycles. It was founded 24 years ago, in 1992. This company has a very interesting name. There are a lot of Chinese cars, but only Lifan can boast of a special translation. This means "sailing". Strictly speaking, after the disclosure of the secret of translation, the meaning of the emblem becomes clear, because it depicts three sailboats.

For a short period of time, "Lifan" became the fifth in the list of the largest motorcycle manufacturers in China, and in 2005 (that is, in 8 years) in the factory organized the assembly of cars. The first model was a pickup truck based on the Daihatsu Atrai car. Since this all started.

Popular models - Cebrium, Celliya, Smily, Solano, X50, X60. The first of these is not a bad design. In addition, the auto budget - it costs about 650 thousand rubles. The second car of the above turned out to be more cumbersome, but also gained popularity, since it costs less - 500-580 thousand rubles. Hatchback Smily is the cheapest option, since it costs less than 400 thousand rubles. And the most expensive model is the X60, a crossover, for which it will be necessary to give about 730 thousand rubles.

Chery Automobile

This is the company that can not be ignored. She distinguished herself no less than the aforementioned Chinese car brands. The company was founded in 1997.

Cars began to be manufactured in 1999 - after the purchase of high-quality equipment and related materials. And then, by the way, a license for the Toleda chassis from the notorious Spanish company Seat was bought.

It is interesting that at first the firm could not become the owner of permission to sell its cars everywhere. Because at first she supplied the model for a taxi, which provided its services to the local administration. But in 2001 everything changed, as the Shanghai firm SAIC acquired 1/5 of Cheri shares. And so the company began to be able to sell its cars. The affair was adjusted. Chery is the first Chinese company that began to supply its cars for export.

Popularity

Different there are Chinese cars. The brands listed above are distinguished by the level of quality, comfort, safety, etc. "Cheri" is considered by many to be the best company for a number of reasons. But first I would like to look at sales statistics. She says a lot! In 2000, for example, only two thousand models were sold. A year later - 14 times more! In 2002, the output was 50 000 copies, in 2003 - 90 000 ... every year the machines "Chery" became more popular. Only once there was a slight decline - in 2004, then 86 thousand models were sold. But already in 2005 there was an unprecedented leap, because sales, in comparison with last year, increased by more than 100 thousand models! In 2012, this mark exceeded 560,000 copies.

Chinese car brands offer a wide variety of models. Chery produces cheap and, in principle, quite good in the characteristics of cars. They are created for ordinary driving - to work, to shops, to rest. And the cars differ in pleasant prices. Model IndiS (urban class) costs from 420 thousand rubles., Popular sedan Bonus 3 can be purchased from 485 thousand rubles., And quite powerful and solid crossovers, which are known as Tiggo and Tiggo 5, really buy for 655 thousand rubles. And 800 thousand rubles. respectively.

Great Wall Motors Ltd.

This is another company that you should talk about when discussing Chinese cars. Stamps, the list of which was provided at the beginning of the article, is quite diverse. So, Great Wall Motors Ltd. Is the largest private machine-building company. About the same as the notorious "Lifan". But the structure of this holding, unlike the latter, still includes as many as four enterprises that produce cars. And yet - twenty (!) Different subsidiaries. They produce automotive components. In general, the concern employs more than ten thousand specialists of different profiles! It's no surprise that Great Wall Motors Ltd. Today is popular. By the way, this company is the first among all the others in terms of the number of produced and sold pick-ups.

The company collects literally all vehicles. Crossovers, off-road cars, pick-up trucks, cars and minibuses, minivans, and even limousines with autocampers. For this company there are practically no barriers. That's why this brand of Chinese-made cars has such a high rating.

First Automobile Works

This is the most popular company. By the way, the state! And it is known not only in China, but also abroad. FAW is the short name of the firm. Chinese brands of cars, the photos of which are provided above, differ from each other in different features. So, the raisins from the company FAW a lot. First - the age. This is the most experienced company in the automotive market of China. It originated in 1953. Production began, by the way, from trucks. Every year the company developed, and today its branches, distributors and offices are located in 80 different countries.

Concern produces stylish compact SUVs with bright and unusual appearance, inexpensive capacious (but modest in size) sedans, quite powerful and attractive crossovers (a bright representative - X80, differ, by the way, a good 147-horsepower engine) and business-class models. FAW Besturn B50 is just that. The refined business sedan quickly became famous for its comfortable and ergonomic salon of light leather.

Baojun

Another well-known firm. By the way, remembering about it, I would like to touch on such a topic as the emblems of Chinese car brands. Because Baojun has a really interesting logo. On the emblem flaunting the expressive profile of the horse. Why? But because the name of the company is translated as "precious horse". Are the cars of this company so good ? It is safe to say that for China - even very decent cars.

The company exists only five years. The first of its sedan immediately fell in love with many motorists, since it had not only an expressive appearance, but also solid technical characteristics. The first model was pleased with the 1.8-liter 142-horsepower engine. Convenient armchairs made of white leather, the most ergonomic control panel, the steering wheel that perfectly fits into the hand, the instruments, the readings from which are read perfectly ... These are only small advantages that this car surprised potential buyers. They still have a lot of it.

Now the company continues to produce cars, and there are already many more. Popularity is growing, and it will not be surprising if it becomes one of the most popular in the whole state in a couple of years.

BYD Auto

The last firm I'd like to talk about. Chinese car brands in Russia have found a good popularity, and BYD models have not become an exception. Machines really are of some interest. Monoprivodnye parkniki, sedan of business class F7 / G6 (by the way, it is very popular in Russia, since it has a 205-strong turbomotor and a rich interior trimmed with high-quality materials), hatchbacks ... The company produces good models for China. The managers of the company want their cars to compete in quality and characteristics with famous world brands. It remains only to wish them luck and watch the results.
