A number of firsts for FAW Vehicle Manufacturers SA (PTY) LTD:

1. The establishment of this modern, high-quality vehicle production plant and all its associated infrastructure at a cost of USD 60 million.
2. The Coega plant with its build-capacity of 5 000 units per annum, represents the first high-quality Chinese manufacturer to set-up and contribute on this scale, in the Eastern Cape region.
3. Tipper Truck bodies, Mixers and customized Trailers will be built in the body building plant adjoining the main plant. FAW will be the first SA-based OEM to offer its Body-building Facility to other Commercial Vehicle Manufacturers.
4. FAW Vehicle Manufacturers SA (PTY) LTD will be the first OEM to build locally its entire range of commercial vehicles sold in South Africa, - 14 models spanning the Medium, Heavy and Extra-Heavy Commercial Vehicle segments.

Henceforth all FAW trucks in SA can carry the ‘badge of honour’ of ‘Made in South Africa’.
