Jinbei Logo

Established in 1975, Jinbei emerged as a frontrunner in manufacturing commercial vehicles in China, initially concentrating on crafting minivans and trucks. However, as the automotive landscape of China evolved during the 1990s, Jinbei ventured into passenger vehicles, particularly tapping into the nation’s growing inclination towards SUVs and MPVs.

The turn of the century brought pivotal changes for Jinbei. In 2001, the automotive giant Brilliance Auto took the reins of Jinbei, subsequently expanding its range with an array of new models. By 2017, a significant collaboration took shape: Brilliance Auto and Renault united forces, giving birth to Renault Brilliance Jinbei Automotive. This joint venture saw Renault procuring a 49% stake, and together, they embarked on producing vehicles under the Jinbei banner.

This partnership with Renault infused Jinbei’s lineup with fresh designs, not just for their traditional offerings but also leading to the introduction of electric van variants. Today, with manufacturing hubs dotted throughout China, Jinbei offers a comprehensive suite of vehicles, including commercial carriers, MPVs, SUVs, and even sedans. Having evolved from a modest Chinese entity in the 1970s, Jinbei now stands tall as a formidable brand enriched by global collaborations with Renault. At its core, Jinbei remains devoted to satiating the Chinese market’s appetite for commercial and leisurely passenger vehicles.
