At the inauguration ceremony, DFG Chairman Xu Ping said the establish-
ment of the new joint venture would en- hance the competitiveness of DFCV’s core business, strengthen its R&D ex- pertise in complete vehicle and key powertrain components, and actively expand its overseas business, which will increase the competitiveness of the Dongfeng brand in the global market.
