Nanjing Automobile is a state-owned enterprise with a history that dates from 1947, making it the oldest of the Chinese automobile manufacturers although the comparatively younger First Automobile Works was the first to actually make cars.
The group's products have included cars, trucks, and buses.
Nanjing Auto merged with the much-larger SAIC in 2007 becoming a subsidiary of that company.

Famous quotes containing the word automobile:
“The westerner, normally, walks to get somewhere that he cannot get in an automobile or on horseback. Hiking for its own sake, for the sheer animal pleasure of good condition and brisk exercise, is not an easy thing for him to comprehend.”
—State of Utah, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
