[edit]
Description
English: Place: Liping, Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou Province

Chinese name: 一汽华利佳星 (yīqì huálì jiāxīng) Year of launch: 2003

First Auto Works (FAW) is one of the four largest state-owned automotive companies in China. It was founded in 1953 and launched its first car, the Hongqi (Red Flag). One of its subsidiaries, FAW Tianjin, started producing cars in 1965. From November 1984 it started producing Daihatsu cars in license, starting with the Hijet, but followed by the Charade in 1986. This car, the Xiali (夏利) would become one of the most successful cars in China in the nineties and can be considered an icon for the Chinese automotive industry.

FAW always had a link with Daihatsu: it produced the Dario Terios and Daihatsu Xenia in a joint venture with the Japanese carmaker, the latter one continued to be produced by FAW under its own name as FAW Shenya (Xenia) M80/S80. Apart from the Xiali and Shenya, FAW also produced the Daihatsu Move from 2003 to 2008 under license. It was produced by its subsidiary FAW Huali, in the past responsible for the production of yet another Daihatsu: the Hijet, which was marketed in China as FAW Huali Dafa. The FAW Huali Jiaxing (Happy Messenger), as the rebranded Daihatsu Move was called, came with some side claddings and a chrome grille.
