Bestune is a modern automotive brand under China FAW Group, founded in 2006 and originally called Besturn. It was later rebranded to emphasize a younger, more contemporary identity. The name suggests "best tone" or "perfect tune," underscoring an ambition to build cars that meet high standards of quality and style.

Originally a sub-brand for affordable mid-range cars, Bestune has since expanded its lineup with more modern, tech-forward models — today building crossovers, sedans, and EVs that combine style, comfort, and innovation.
