The roots of Jinguan Automobile can be traced back to 1984, with its predecessor being Chongqing Specialized Vehicle Special Purpose Vehicle Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Initially, the company focused mainly on manufacturing special vehicles, such as emergency support box-type specialized vehicles and armored cash transport vehicles. On February 9, 1998, the company was officially registered as Chongqing Jinguan Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd., specializing in specialized vehicles and special-purpose vehicle modifications as its main product lines.
The 2000s marked the brand’s core growth period, with armored cash transport vehicles serving as the pillar business, accounting for 46% of revenue. In 2010, Jinguan entered the RV manufacturing field, and the following year, its first "Mercedes-Benz Travel RV" passed the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announcement and was launched. The company subsequently became an officially authorized modification enterprise for German brands Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen. By 2019, Jinguan was selling over 800 units of business motorhomes, travel RVs, and other products annually, ranking among the top in the nation in terms of sales. In 2023, the company produced and sold 2,000 modified vehicles, achieving an output value of over 500 million yuan and joining the ranks of Chinese top-tier modified vehicle manufacturers.
Entering the mid-2020s, Jinguan vigorously expanded into overseas markets by establishing a 14-person professional overseas market team, marking the start of its global journey.

Jinguan is not only one of the first specialized vehicle enterprises in China to achieve bulk export of armored vehicles but also a top brand in the domestic modified vehicle export track.
In the future, Jinguan Automobile will deepen its "Dual-Drive Strategy," placing equal emphasis on domestic sales and exports.

In terms of geographic expansion, the overseas network will extend from its current base into developed markets such as Europe and America. On the capacity front, Jinguan continues to optimize its four major assembly lines. Through digital transformation, the company aims to increase its annual production scale of modified vehicles to over 3,000 units within the next three to five years, ultimately realizing its long-term vision of "Becoming a Leading Enterprise in China's RV Industry."
