China's Car Brands: Explained
China's car market runs on a handful of giant groups, each fielding a stack of brands. Here is who owns what - the parent companies, the sub-brands, the Huawei alliance, and why the chart keeps changing.
Who makes Aion, Jaecoo and Deepal: China's export badges explained
Aion is GAC, Jaecoo and Omoda are Chery, Deepal is Changan, Nammi is Dongfeng. Ten Chinese brands whose names do not carry the parent company, grouped by how each one relates to its owner: brands sold only outside China, recent badges on long-established state groups, brands two levels below the group, and one that Huawei supplies but does not own.
About
Jaecoo is a Chery Group brand built for export markets, established in April 2023 in Wuhu, Anhui, and run as one division with the slightly older Omoda, founded in 2022. The name combines the German word “Jäger” (hunter) with “cool,” reflecting the brand’s off-road-styled positioning against Omoda’s more mainstream crossovers.
Both brands exist to carry Chery’s international expansion, and Jaecoo has grown quickly: in the UK, where it launched in 2025, it became one of the fastest-growing mainstream brands within two years, with the Jaecoo 7 reaching third place among all cars sold in the country by mid-2026.
