History
Gaokin was founded on 28 February 2006, in Chongqing, an industrial city in China known for hosting numerous automotive and motorcycle manufacturers. In 2007, the construction of the first plant for the production of cylinder blocks for diesel engines commissioned by Cummins for export to North America was completed. Additionally, the Chongqing research and development center was also completed, where a 600 cc twin-cylinder motorcycle engine was developed for third-party production.
In 2013, Gaokin began exporting motorcycle engines to European manufacturers, and the company was reorganized into four sectors, with motorcycle production being complemented by the production of components for large industrial engines.
