China Brilliance Automobile Holding Company [CBA]---the first Chinese company listed on a foreign stock exchange---went public on the list of New York Stock Exchange, USA in Oct 1992 (Stock Code: CBA). On the first day of such listing, CBA became one of the most active stocks on this stock exchange market, with a rise of 25% in stock price the same day, despite the entirety of the session drifting lower. CBA’s success in being listed for trading overseas creates a brand new mode for Chinese companies’ melting into and making use of global capital markets.

In Oct 1999, CBA went public for trading in Hong Kong (Stock Code: 1114) and Mainland China.
CBA has shaped itself into a newly burgeoning Chinese automobile manufacturer after ten years of development, and accordingly changes its role from an automobile industrial investor to an enterprise manager as to this traditional industry proper. Till now, CBA has accumulatively invested over RMB 5 billion in the automobile industry.

Presently CBA possesses two complete car brands ("Zhonghua" series & "Jinbei" series, self-manufactured) and three complete car products (proprietary Zhonghua passenger car; Jinbei Haise minibus, covering nearly 60% of domestic market share among similar models; and multifunctional Jinbei Granse commercial motor vehicle, made out by introduction of Toyota's state-of-the-art automobile manufacturing technology).

Jinbei Haise minibus series, a significant product series in Chinese minibus market, is the only domestic one that has introduced Toyota's technology, molds, and mode of management. It has five sub-series or nearly a score or so varieties to meet different customer demands, with its output and sales commanding the top place on domestic minibus market for five consecutive years. As far as 8-14 seated commercial motor vehicles are concerned, it enjoys nearly 60% domestic market share (over 300,000 sets).

The proprietary Zhonghua Passenger car, a medium-high grade commodity, was offline in Dec 2000 in Shenyang, China and formally put into market in Aug 2002. It was designed by Mr. Giugiaro, a worldwide top design master, with the complete car performance tested and approved by MIRA Corp, an international authentification authority in Great Britain; key processing equipment, inclusive of pressing, weld, painting, and general assembly devices, supplied by such worldwide well-known automotive equipment manufacturers as SCHULER, KUKA, DURR AND SCHENCK; key assemblies and parts provided by globally famous automobile factories.

4.88 Meter in length, Zhonghua Passenger car cuts an elegant figure and possesses dynamic body up to Chinese individual taste (wind resistance coefficient, 0.293). In safety, power, and driving comfortableness, Zhonghua Passenger car could fully meet the increasing domestic demand for medium-high grade passenger car cars. Its cost performance appreciates predominant market competitive advantages.

On Mar 29th, 2003, CBA once more officially pushed out new models with Zhonghua Passenger car: DeDeluxe 2.4L, 2.0L Zhonghua Passenger car on the market. DeDeluxe 2.4L Zhonghua Passenger car inherits former Zhonghua Passenger car’s style, inclusive of its elegant shape, but with updated power performance and interior trimming, plus many new configurations. CBA’s pushing-out of Zhonghua 2.4L model symbolizes a big step forward for Brilliance Jinbei in model serialization, as a product strategy.

IIn Jun 2002, one of CBA's subsidiaries gained the regulatory's approval of the project proposal submitted, concerning its establishment of a joint venture with BMW, Germany for complete car manufacturer in China.
