Chang Jiang EV (Chinese: 长江), also called Yangtze Motor (扬子江), was a Chinese automobile manufacturer headquartered in Zhejiang Province, Hangzhou, China, specializing in developing electric vehicles.
History[edit]
ChangJiang was founded in 2015 and had been based in Hangzhou, China.[2] It was a division of FDG Electric Vehicles. They had two R&D centers, a battery manufacturing plant, and vehicle assembly plants. The main factory is in Hangzhou while the smaller one is in Kunming. ChangJiang also had a plant in America, which they got by partnering with Smith Electric Vehicles.[3] On April 17, 2016, ChangJiang created the brand ChangJiang EV (Chinese: 长江-EV).[4]
An older brand, the Chang'an ChangJiang brand, started in the 1950s. The first vehicle was the Chang'an ChangJiang 46. It was produced from 1959 to 1963, but only 3,000 were made. It was created by Xu Guangqi. It weighed 1150 kg, had a maximum load of 440 kg, 2.2 litre 4-cylinder water-cooled 4-stroke carburetor engine, and could seat 6. In 1963, the tools for the vehicles were shipped across the Yangtze River, so a new factory in Beijing could open. However, the boat tipped, and the tools were lost, which ended production of the 46. The company then turned into Beijing Auto Works. One 46 remains today in Chongqing.[5][6]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ChangJiang filed for bankruptcy in August 2020,[7] and underwent liquidation. ChangJiang sold 1,000 vehicles in 2020, and hasn't paid their staff since late 2019.[8]
