The 2024 Liuzhou 10-Kilometer Road Race Open featured two categories: a 3.5-kilometer fun run and a 10-kilometer race, providing a stage for runners of different levels to showcase themselves. Dressed in the red uniforms themed "Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Celebrates 70 Years," the runners were like a passionate flood weaving through the smart factory. A convoy of 300 Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor commercial and passenger vehicles lined up along the route, resembling a long dragon welcoming each participant in the warmest way. The course passed through landmark buildings such as the passenger car final assembly workshop, commercial vehicle final assembly workshop, and vehicle test roads.
