Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other uses Шаблон:Infobox company
Chang'an Automobile Co., Ltd.[1] (CCAG) is a Chinese state-owned automobile manufacturer headquartered in Jiangbei, Chongqing.[2] Founded in 1862, it is China's oldest automobile maker.[3][4] It is currently the smallest of the "Big Four" state-owned car manufacturers of China, namely: SAIC Motor, FAW Group, Dongfeng Motor Corporation, and Changan Automobile, with car sales of 5.37 million, 3.50 million, 3.28 million and 2.30 million in 2021 respectively.[5]
The company produces and sells vehicles under its own branding, such as Changan, Deepal, Avatr, Oshan, Kaicene, as well as under foreign-branded joint ventures such as Changan-Ford and Changan-Mazda. In 2021, domestic branded cars took over 76% of sales (1.75m, 1.2m passenger vehicles).[6]
Its principal activity is the production of passenger cars, microvans, commercial vans and light trucks.[7]
It is China's second most popular car brand, with 1.4 million Changan cars sold in 2016.[8] A subsidiary of Changan, Chongqing Changan Automobile Company (Шаблон:Szse), is listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (but is also state controlled).[2]
History
Changan's early origins can be traced back to 1862 when Li Hongzhang set up a military supply factory, the Shanghai Foreign Gun Bureau.[9] It is China's oldest automobile maker.[4] In 1937, during the Second Sino-Japanese War, the factory was moved to Chongqing when Shanghai was invaded and bombed.[10]
In 1959 a predecessor entity, Chongqing Chang'an Arsenal, under contract to the government, began auto manufacturing and built Changjiang Type 46 vehicle which was the first production vehicle of China.[11] Changan introduced minicar by licensing from Suzuki.[12]
In 2009, Changan acquired two smaller domestic automakers, Hafei and Changhe.[13] In 2013, Changhe was transferred to Jiangxi provincial government for restructuring, and later became a majority-owned subsidiary of another Chinese automaker BAIC Group.[14]
As of 2010, China Weaponry Equipment is the parent company of this state-owned automaker,[15] and that year Chang'an became the fourth most-productive car manufacturer in the Chinese automobile industry by selling 2.38 million units.[16]
The company also released a new logo for its consumer offerings in 2010 while commercial production retains the former red-arch brand.[7]
Although it only allowed the company to achieve fourth place among domestic automakers in terms of production, Changan made over 2 million whole vehicles in 2011.[17]
In 2012, it was reported that 72% of production was dedicated to passenger vehicles,[18] but this count likely conflates private offerings and microvans, tiny commercial trucks and vans that are popular in China.
In November 2012, Changan Ford Mazda Automobile was divided into two new joint venture companies: Changan Ford and Changan Mazda.[19]
Changan plans to ending production of vehicles powered solely by internal-combustion engines by 2025, as the automaker will be selling only hybrid vehicles and all-electric vehicles from 2025 as a result due to the climate change, air pollution issues in the China and stringent emissions regulations. The company stated that this is because Government of China announced that it has passed legislation that will ban new ICE-powered vehicles by the mid-2030s, due to high air pollution and due to China's reiterated commitment in the United Nations Paris Agreement as the automaker wants remain compliant with the government's automotive emission standards. The automaker is joining Volvo Cars, Jaguar Land Rover, Hongqi, BYD Auto, Lotus Cars, and several other automakers in planning on ceasing production of ICE-powered vehicles in the coming years.[20]
In December 2023, Huawei announced it plans to move core technologies and resources in its smart car unit to a new joint venture with Changan. The new company will engage in research and development, production, sales and service of intelligent automotive systems and component solutions. Changan and its affiliates plan to acquire no more than 40 percent of the new company's equity, with the specific amount of capital contribution and term to be separately negotiated between the two parties.[21][22]

Joint ventures
Like most major Chinese automakers, Changan partners with Western and Japanese companies to produce and sell the products of these foreign firms in China. It also partners with other companies within China to augment manufacturer capacity and share development costs.
Changan currently participates in the following joint ventures:
Ford (2001–present)
In 2001, Chang'an Ford was formed[30] and initially built Ford-branded passenger vehicles from complete knock down kits.[11]
Making Chinese-market versions of Ford consumer offerings,[7] its 2010 dealer network was thought to include many showrooms in second- and third-tier Chinese citiesШаблон:Citation needed such as Chongqing.[31] So-called second- and third-tier cities are large and medium-sized cities not among the top four in terms of population and contribution to GDP.[32]
Changan Mazda (2012–present)
Changan Kuayue
Chongqing Kuayue Automobile is a co-operative venture between Changan and Chongqing Kuayue Group specializing in commercial vehicle production.[33]

Jiangling Investment and Jiangling Motor Holding
Jiangling Motor Holding Co. Ltd. (Шаблон:Zh), also known by the initialism JMH, was a joint venture established in October 2004 and controlled equally by Changan and JMCG. To create Jiangling Motor Holding Changan invested money and in exchange JMCG transferred its Jiangling Motors Corporation (JMC) equity to the venture. Jiangling Motor Holding was the largest shareholder of JMC,[35] with a 41.03% stake as of March 2018.[36] JMH also owned the Landwind marque.[35][37]
In April 2019, it was announced that JMCG and Changan planned to split JMH into two separate companies: one keeping the same name and other tentatively called Jiangling Investment. Jiangling Investment would hold the 41.03% JMC stake and some liabilities and would still be equally owned by Changan and JMCG. The new JMH would own the rest of the former JMH assets (including Landwind)[38][39] and it would issue 100% more shares to be sold to investors, leaving JMCG and Changan with a 25% stake each.[39] Jiangling Investment was formally established in May 2019, completing the split of the former JMH.[40] In June 2019, it was announced that the investor for the new JMH was the car manufacturer Aiways. Aiways acquired a 50% of the new JMH with the aim of securing production permits for new energy vehicles.[41][42]
Former
Changan PSA (2010-2020)
Changan and the French car manufacturer PSA Peugeot Citroën agreed in 2010 to set up a 50/50 passenger car and light commercial vehicle-making joint venture.[43] Named CAPSA, it was the PSA Group's second joint venture company in China, after Dongfeng Peugeot-Citroën Automobile, and its first with Chang'an.[44] Centering on a newly built production base in Shenzhen, it was estimated that initial production capacity for the project will be 200,000 units/year.[45] Manufacturing commenced in 2014, with China specific Citroën DS models; the DS 5LS first and then the DS 6WR.[46] The venture was dissolved in 2020.
Changan Suzuki (1983-2021)
Шаблон:Main Technical and commercial cooperation with Suzuki Motors, beginning in 1983, saw Changan assembling inexpensive commercial trucks (originally the Suzuki Carry ST90 as the Chang'an SC112[47]) under license into the 2000s.[48] The two companies formed Chongqing Chang'an Suzuki Automobile Co in 1993,[30] which built licensed versions of the Suzuki Alto, Suzuki Cultus, and more recently the Swift.
In parallel with its Suzuki joint venture, Changan also continued to build small trucks and vans for commercial use based on the 1999 Suzuki Carry license, but independently developed vehicles are quickly replacing them.[48] These small cars carry the Changan brand name although Suzuki technology is used in their design and manufacture.
On 4 September 2018, Suzuki transferred its 50 percent stake in Changan Suzuki to Chang'an Automobile Group, ending 25 years of joint venture. Under the plan, Chang'an would continue to make and sell Suzuki-branded cars in China under license.
In 2021, Changan Suzuki was renamed to Chongqing Lingyao Automobile.[49]
