Guests highly praised the 212 brand’s product excellence and distinctive charm, while expressing strong recognition of Legend Holding Group’s localized strategy and operational capabilities in the region.
Honouring Tradition, Reviving the Spirit of Off-Road Adventure
First introduced in 1965, the 212 stands as China’s first independently developed off-road vehicle and a symbol of resilience across generations. From border patrols to desert expeditions, its iconic boxy design and robust engine have long represented the nation’s spirit of perseverance.
After six decades, the all-new 212 T01 continues the legendary “One Arch, Two Circles, Three Horizontals, Four Verticals” design philosophy, reimagined with superior performance and a global outlook. More than a vehicle, it is a companion of its time, embodying the strength, courage, and pioneering spirit of the East as it ventures across every frontier of the world.
