A Wangfeng Suwei SHK6520 photographed in Zhengzhou, Henan province, China.

A very interesting old Chinese SUVs : the Wangfeng Suwei.

Shanghai Wangfeng Auto was a Zhejiang-born company which owned a factory in Pudong district in the Shanghai municipality (not confused with Shanghai city. Shanghai municipality includes Shanghai city area and its suburbs - like Hamburg or Bremen Länder in Germany).

Born in early 1990's, Wangfeng began auto production (CKD production) in 2000 with kits from Foday Auto.
Foday Auto produced cheap Isuzu-clone pick-ups and SUVs for its own brand and kits for dozens small Chinese automakers.
That's why a same pick-up or SUV was sold under numerous brands.

For example with this Suwei. The base was also sold by Foday, FAW, Great Wall, Xinkai, Dadi Auto, Tianma, Tianqi Meiya, ... With different fronts and engines.

Production of Wangfeng ended around 2007.

According to Leblogauto (www.leblogauto.com/2011/03/spyshot-le-retour-de-wanfeng.html), Wangfeng had the particularity to be managed by a woman, like the 3rd biggest Chinese automaker Great Wall.

In early 2000, the Suwei was sold for no more €10.000.

It was powered by an Isuzu-sourced 2.8 diesel engine and by a gas engine.

Wangfeng vehicles are very rare now on Chinese roads.
I only saw 3 Wangfengs since 2012.
