Recently, a dedicated technical team jointly formed by DFMIEC’s Commercial Vehicle Overseas Marketing Department and Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle traveled to Malaysia to provide on-site support. The team successfully assisted the local partner in completing the first batch of KD assembly and achieving full vehicle rollout.
This milestone not only signifies a major breakthrough in the localized production of Dongfeng commercial vehicles in Malaysia, but also demonstrates the company’s strong capabilities in rapidly deploying advanced technologies in overseas markets and delivering full value-chain service excellence.
Professional Team Ensures Full-Process Quality Control in Assembly
The dispatched technical support team brought together key experts across multiple disciplines, including manufacturing technology, assembly processes, and automotive electronics. Tasked with ensuring smooth vehicle assembly and meeting quality standards, the team played a critical role in the success of the Malaysia project.
On site, the team faced a range of challenges—from a completely new working environment and language barriers to coordination with the local construction crew. Leveraging their strong technical expertise and meticulous work ethic, the team quickly adapted and implemented refined, full-process control over vehicle assembly, ensuring that every stage met Dongfeng’s process and quality standards.
To strengthen local capabilities, the team also developed a tiered training plan tailored to local workers. Through a combination of theoretical instruction, hands-on demonstrations, and one-on-one guidance, they systematically conveyed key assembly techniques and standardized operating procedures. This enabled trainees to fully grasp core operational skills and laid a solid technical foundation for ongoing quality assurance in vehicle production.
Successful Rollout — First Vehicle Receives Immediate Praise
After rigorous inspection, the batch of vehicles fully met Dongfeng’s global quality standards in key areas such as exterior craftsmanship, power performance, and overall vehicle quality. The products received unanimous recognition from the Malaysian partner’s technical team.
At the rollout ceremony, a representative from the Malaysian partner commented:
“Dongfeng’s technical team, with their profound expertise and commitment to excellence, not only completed the first vehicle assembly efficiently, but also significantly improved the skills of our staff through systematic technical guidance. This comprehensive technical empowerment has laid a solid foundation for deeper strategic cooperation between both parties in the future.”
The launch of Dongfeng’s localized production project in Malaysia marks a significant new chapter. Looking ahead, Dongfeng will take this as a key opportunity to further deepen cooperation with local partners—enhancing coordination in production operations, continuously refining manufacturing processes, and striving for excellence to elevate product quality.
At the same time, Dongfeng will enrich its product lineup by introducing a wider range of models tailored to the preferences and needs of Malaysian consumers. Through these efforts, the company aims to better meet the needs of local consumers, inject new vitality and momentum into the development of Malaysia’s automotive industry, and accelerate Dongfeng’s global expansion—advancing its "Globalization Leap" strategy.
