The 23rd Changchun International Auto Expo opened with the theme "Moving Forward Together," showcasing seven decades of the city's automotive evolution from the first Jiefang CA10 truck in 1956 to today's electrified and intelligent vehicles.
The 8th China FAW Hongqi Carnival opened in Changchun, marking the 70th anniversary of China's first automobile rolling off the production line. The event gathers industry innovations and builds a platform for open cooperation, showcasing China's automotive industry transformation from its origins to global expansion.
In June 2026, China's automotive industry reached a historic milestone—its first automaker with cumulative production exceeding 100 million units officially emerged. This landmark not only signifies China's transformation from a "manufacturing giant" to a "manufacturing powerhouse," but also means Chinese auto brands have gained powerful scale-effect endorsement for their global competitiveness. From the first Jiefang truck in 1956 to today's 100-million milestone, China's auto industry completed the leap from follower to leader in 70 years.
