Facts checked Ownership as of 4 September 2026

Yes

Venucia is Chinese, but it came out of a joint venture with Japan. It was created in 2010 by Dongfeng Motor Co., the 50/50 venture between Dongfeng and Nissan, as a home-grown badge for cars built on Nissan platforms. The brand belongs to the Chinese side of that partnership; the exact shareholding of the brand itself is not recorded here.

Holding by holding

  1. State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council owns Dongfeng Motor Group at 100% since 2003.

    Dongfeng Motor Corporation is a central state-owned enterprise whose shareholding SASAC holds. Dongfeng told the Hong Kong exchange in February 2025 that a planned restructuring might change its controlling shareholder but would not change its ultimate controller, SASAC.

  2. Dongfeng Motor Group controls Venucia since 2010.

    Venucia is a marque of Dongfeng Nissan, the passenger-car business of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., which Dongfeng and Nissan own 50/50. Dongfeng is therefore a half owner of the company that owns the brand rather than its sole owner.
