Forthing

Forthing, called Fengxing in Chinese, is an automobile marque owned by Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor, a division of Dongfeng Motor Group. The brand was launched in 2001 under the Fengxing name and was later given Forthing as its English name while the Chinese name stayed the same. Its vehicles have always carried the Dongfeng emblem, and on 17 November 2020 the Forthing T5 EVO crossover was launched with a new lion badge, which the brand renewal conference in Shanghai on 10 June 2021 confirmed together with a new slogan and a first concept car for family mobility. The range includes the Jingyi crossover SUV series, sold overseas as the Joyear, the Jingyi S50 sedan and the S500 large multi-purpose vehicle, and two vans, the Lingzhi and the CM7. Some of these models are also sold in Latin American markets such as Chile and Peru under the Dongfeng, DFM or DFLZ names.
