What Ford cars are made in China?

Ford cars assembled in China are produced through two joint ventures: Changan Ford Automobile Co., Ltd. (CFA) and Jiangling Ford Motor Co., Ltd. (JFM). As of 2024–2025, these partnerships have yielded a mix of Ford-branded models and, in some cases, Lincoln models under domestic arrangements. The exact lineup can shift with market strategy and new model launches, but the following outlines the typical locally assembled Ford vehicles in China.


Changan Ford Automobile (CFA)


The CFA joint venture has historically produced a range of Ford sedans and SUVs for the Chinese market. The following examples illustrate the types of models CFA has assembled locally in recent years.



  • Ford EcoSport

  • Ford Focus

  • Ford Mondeo (Fusion in some markets)

  • Ford Kuga (Escape)


These CFA-built vehicles reflect Ford’s emphasis on compact to mid-size cars and sport-utility vehicles tailored for Chinese consumers, with model names and generations adapting over time.


Jiangling Ford Motor Co., Ltd. (JFM)


The Jiangling Ford joint venture has produced Ford-branded SUVs and related models designed for the Chinese market. The following example represents a key model associated with JFM’s local production in recent years.



  • Ford Territory


Territory and other JFM-derived products may appear or change as Ford revises its China strategy and as regulatory and market conditions evolve.


Lincoln models in China


Ford’s luxury Lincoln brand has been distributed in China through domestic partnerships and local assembly arrangements that are separate from CFA and JFM. The status and lineup of Lincoln models produced in China have shifted over time as Ford recalibrates its regional strategy. For the current Lincoln production status and model lineup in China, consult Ford China’s official communications or recent press releases.


Summary


In China, Ford’s locally assembled vehicles are primarily produced by two joint ventures: CFA (Changan Ford) and JFM (Jiangling Ford). CFA has historically built EcoSport, Focus, Mondeo, and Kuga for the Chinese market, while JFM has been associated with Territory and other SUV offerings. Lincoln models have been part of China’s market through related domestic arrangements, but their exact current production status can change with corporate strategy. For the most up-to-date and precise model lineup, refer to Ford China’s official sources and announcements.
