The story

The company was founded in 1999 and is based in Haidian District, Beijing. CSGC is the parent company of Changan Automobile.

In November 2020, Donald Trump issued an executive order prohibiting any American company or individual from owning shares in companies that the United States Department of Defense has listed as having links to the People's Liberation Army, which included China South Industries Group Corporation.

In June 2025, the State Council announced the spin-off of the automotive business from China South Industries Group Corporation, Changan Automobile will be separated into an independent Central state-owned enterprise, with the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) performing the duties of the capital contributor. Following this spin-off, the indirect controlling shareholder of Changan Automobile will change to the central enterprise resulting from the automotive business separation, while the actual controller remains unchanged.
