Landmap, a high-end new energy brand launched by Dongfeng Company on July 29, 2020. For Dongfeng, the birth of Landmap has become a new attempt for Dongfeng to move into the field of high-end new energy vehicles and promote the brand upward.

Lu Fang said that the birth of the Lantu brand did not start from scratch. Standing on the shoulders of giants, Lantu has learned from Dongfeng’s many years of experience, combined with new practices in the market, and created a new strategy, a new organizational mechanism, a new business model and a new team. With the advantage of "four new", it quickly integrated into the fierce market competition, creating a latecomer advantage.

Lu Fang believes that the development of China’s auto industry has gone through three stages. The first stage is the joint venture stage, that is, Chinese car companies exchange market for technology through joint ventures. This attempt has allowed Chinese car companies and China’s auto industry to achieve the first leap; the second stage is mainly the rise stage of China’s own brand cars, which has also made China the world’s largest automobile production and consumption country; the third stage is the "new four modernizations" stage of automobiles, that is, Chinese cars enter the stage of intelligent, electric, networked, and shared "four modernizations". At this stage, China’s auto industry has changed from Chinese manufacturing to Chinese creation and Chinese intelligent manufacturing, and Chinese cars have begun to "look at" the world.
