Are cars manufactured in North Korea? Yes, although they only average 80 horsepower and no one there can afford them. Pyeonghwa Motors builds them in Nampo. Interestingly, Pyeonghwa is Korean for "Peace". Comment with your thoughts.
북한에서 제조 된 자동차입니까? 예, 그들은 단지 평균 80 마력 아무도 그들을이 감당할 수 있지만. 평화 자동차는 남포에서 그들을 구축합니다. 흥미롭게도, Pyeonghwa은 "평화"한국입니다. 당신의 생각을 코멘트.
COMMENTARY SOURCES:
Yes, North Korea makes cars, and here are the latest models.
The United States has Ford. Germany has Volkswagen. Japan has Toyota. And North Korea has Pyeonghwa Motors.
Run by Kim Jong-un's regime, the company produces a tiny number of vehicles at its factory in the city of Nampo, a seaport on North Korea’s west coast. At its sole dealership in the capital Pyongyang, visitors can view its lineup up close, take a test drive and even purchase spare parts.

The Hermit Kingdom: An Inside View Of North Korea's Hidden Car Culture.
When I found myself in one of the most isolated and mysterious countries on the planet naturally the first thing I noticed was the profound assortment of vehicles in the airport parking lot. Behind the wall of mines and propaganda in North Korea are still people, and many people still like cars.
There was a white United Nations-outfitted G-Wagon with a manual transmission and rubberized interior; an unidentifiable prehistoric-looking squad of military vehicles I had never seen before (or even read about) and to top it off a row of three blacked-out Porsche Cayennes sat in the corner of the small lot.

Pyeonghwa Motors
Pyeonghwa Motors (Hangul : 평화자동차) (Hancha : 平和自動車), a Korean language word for "peace", also spelled Pyonghwa, is one of the two car manufacturers and dealers in North Korean automotive industry. It is a joint venture in Nampo between Pyonghwa Motors of Seoul (South Korea), a company owned by Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church, and the North Korean Ryonbong General Corp. The joint venture produces small cars under licence from Fiat and Brilliance China Auto, a pickup truck and an SUV using complete knock down kits from Chinese manufacturer Dandong Shuguang, and a luxury car of Mercedes-Benz/SsangYong design.
Pyeonghwa has the exclusive rights to car production, purchase, and sale of used cars in North Korea. However, most North Koreans are unable to afford a car. Because of the very small market for cars in the country, Pyeonghwa's output is reportedly very low. In 2003, only 314 cars were produced even though the factory had the facilities to produce up to 10,000 cars a year. Erik van Ingen Schenau, author of the book Automobiles Made in North Korea, has estimated the company's total production in 2005 at not more than around 400 units.
