FAW Jiefang possesses China’s most robust independent R&D system
Guided by the principles of “technological leadership, pioneering experiences, integrated innovation, enhanced application, and collaborative efficiency,” FAW Jiefang has established China’s most comprehensive independent R&D system spanning forward-looking technologies, engines, transmissions, axles, and complete vehicles. This system supports a highly efficient, collaborative R&D team exceeding 3,000 members. Possessing five core competencies—technological innovation, lean design, performance development, prototype validation, and testing verification—it has established five major technical platforms: low-carbonization, informatization, intelligentization, electrification, and high quality, collectively known as the “Four Modernizations and One High.” As one of the commercial vehicle enterprises mastering world-class core technologies for complete vehicles and the three major powertrains, it holds ISO9001, IATF16949, and the National Military Standard 9001B quality system certification. It is a nationally recognized base for independent automotive product R&D and testing certification.
