From humble beginnings to today's industry benchmark, Ankai Bus's 60-year journey is a history of striving and growth, intertwined with the development of China's highway passenger transport. Each classic model bears the mark of an era, carrying the travel memories of several generations and etching Ankai's commitment to quality and innovation. Today, we look back at those Ankai coach models that have roamed across mountains and rivers, revisiting sixty years of remarkable achievements and a glorious journey.

The Path of Beginnings: Laying the Foundation, Never Stopping

Since its predecessor, the Feihe Automobile Repair Factory, a state-owned local enterprise in Anhui Province, was established in 1966, Ankai has been deeply engaged in automotive manufacturing technology under challenging conditions. From producing parts and developing heavy-duty trucks to independently mastering core chassis technology for buses, the company steadily accumulated its vehicle manufacturing capabilities.

A Milestone Moment: China's First Luxury Coach, Reshaping the Industry Landscape

During its development, the birth of the Ankai HFF6120GD (S215HD) reshaped the market landscape for luxury coaches in China and earned the title "China's First Luxury Coach." This model incorporated advanced technology from the German Setra S215HD, featuring the country's first monocoque body. Combined with luxurious amenities such as aviation seats and onboard televisions, it elevated the standards of high-end coaches to new heights.

Subsequently, Ankai deepened its cooperation with EVOBUS of Germany, successively launching the luxury coaches HFF6120K35 (S315HD) and HFF6121K35 (Zunrong 400). With further optimized full-load-bearing technology, sleeker exteriors, and more refined interiors, these quickly became the top choice for high-end passenger transport and tourism groups, traveling on major highways and dedicated scenic routes across the country.
