The CA770 was the successor of CA72. It is also the most recognized HongQi limousine to date, and many later HongQi models were built on the CA770. CA770 came about when the country leaders requested a limousine with three seating rows. Engineers in First Automobile Works (FAW) tried to modify the CA72 to suit this requirement, few prototypes were made but the outcome was not desirable. In the end, engineers decided to create a whole new HongQi, redesigning from the inside out. They designed a new engine, new chassis and new body step-by-step, and they successfully built the CA770 in September 1965. Though classic and fashionable at time, CA770 went out of production in late 80’s due to its high fuel consumption. It is the most produced HongQi model to date with 876 units manufactured.
