Hongqi state-guest-level service system welcomes guests from all directions
For national affairs, there must be Hongqi. From the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference to major state events such as the SCO Summit, the G20 Summit, and the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, the Hongqi brand has repeatedly shouldered important responsibilities. With outstanding quality and rigorous support, it has undergone strict practical testing and forged a mature, reliable, and exclusive "Way of State Guests."
The Hongqi brand safeguards the 2026 APEC Meeting with a three-dimensional state-guest-level service system
To ensure flawless support for this grand event, the Hongqi brand established a dedicated service support team two months in advance, assembling 25 key experts stationed in Shenzhen to coordinate and carry out full-chain support work. On the vehicle side, a three-level closed-loop quality inspection system is strictly implemented: each vehicle is meticulously inspected before shipment, re-inspected upon arrival in Shenzhen, and subject to final verification before the opening, laying a solid service foundation with zero-defect vehicle conditions. On the service side, an innovative full-process accompanying support model is adopted, with emergency spare parts pre-stocked, dedicated drivers specially trained, and全程 follow-up of summit rehearsals to comprehensively upgrade service response capabilities. During the summit, dedicated service stations will be set up, operating 24-hour all-weather duty with 15-minute rapid on-site response, efficiently handling various emergency vehicle situations to fully ensure the safe and smooth travel of guests.
