Through Engine

Light trucks and buses are sold under the Huanghai (黄海, lit. "Yellow Sea") brand name, whilst the Shuguang brand was used for SUVs in the early 2000s. Some SUVs sold under this brand may utilize Mitsubishi engines as of 2011. The company makes fleet sales, and some products are purchased by the Chinese State.

History

SG was founded in Liaoning in 1984 with RMB 70,000 as a manufacturer of axles for off-road vehicles.

At the beginning of 2007, the parent company Shuguang Automobile Group wholly acquired Changzhou Changjiang Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd., one of Dandong Huanghai's former competitors and the largest bus share in China before 2003, and changed its name to Changzhou Huanghai.

In August 2012, SG agreed to acquire a 56.19% stake in a Dandong-based special vehicle company from a Liaoning-based group company for RMB 80.9 million.
