Sungri Motor Plant is a 600,000m2 vehicle factory opened in November 1950 as the Tokchon Motor Plant (덕천자동차공장) in the city of Tokchon (덕천), North Korea. In 1975, it was renamed Sungri Motor Plant (sungri meaning victory in Korean). It is the most powerful plant of the North Korean automotive industry. In 1980, the annual capacity was reported to be 20,000 units, but in 1996 it produced only 150 units. The plant produces urban and off-road passenger cars, small, medium, and heavy cargo, as well as construction and off-road trucks and buses. All models are reported to be replicas or derivations of foreign cars.
Sungri was also featured in the video game Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction.
