Brand history

This brand was introduced in 2000. Automobiles are on offer . The manufacturer was initially exclusively Shenyang Brilliance Jinbei Automobile from Shenyang , part of the Brilliance China Automotive Holdings group . The production of the Zhonghua sedans was transferred to Huachen Automotive Group Holding in December 2009 .

It is unclear how the brand will continue. Renault has acquired 49% of the shares in Shenyang Brilliance Jinbei Automobile and renamed the company Renault Brilliance Jinbei Automotibe .
