FAW. History

1950s1956youtube

On July 13, 1956, under the guidance of the China's Central Committee and with assistance from the former Soviet Union, construction of China's first automotive production base was completed. Known at that time as First Automotive Works (FAW) and now as First Automotive Group Corporation, this sprawling car and truck manufacturer headquartered in Changchun, China firmly launched the country into the automotive age.
