Summary[edit]

Description
English: Place: Liping, Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou Province

Chinese name: 红旗明仕CA7180 (hóngqí míngshì CA7180) Year of launch: 1988

First Auto Works (FAW) is one of the four largest state-owned automotive companies in China. It was founded in 1953 and launched its first car, the Hongqi (Red Flag), in 1958. One of its subsidiaries, FAW Tianjin, started producing cars in 1965. From November 1984 it started producing Daihatsu cars in license, starting with the Hijet, but followed by the Charade in 1986. This car, the Xiali (夏利) would become one of the most successful cars in China in the nineties and can be considered an icon for the Chinese automotive industry.

The same designation is true for Hongqi, the brand originally intended for high-ranking officials. The Hongqi CA72 was based on a 1955 Chrysler/Imperial. It was followed by the CA770-series in 1963. In 1988 FAW started producing the Audi 100 under its own name, the CA7180/CA7200/CA7220-series. Versions continued to be produced until 2006. Its current line-up consists of the ultra luxurious L5/L7/L9-series, the H7 and all new H5 sedan.
