Recently, the "2026 Shenzhen Enterprise New Product Launch" event, hosted by the Shenzhen Business General Association, Shenzhen Enterprise Confederation, and Shenzhen Time-Honored Brand Association, was successfully held at the Shenzhen Business Report Hall. The event adopted a tripartite linkage model of "hundreds of enterprises, hundreds of investments, hundreds of media," building a bridge from "technology R&D" to "industrial application" and providing a market exposure platform for outstanding products. As the opening act of the Ninth Shenzhen Business Gala and the 20th-anniversary series of events for the China Entrepreneurs Club, 15 innovative companies showcased their heavyweight new products, vividly illustrating the "Shenzhen Launch" model driven by "technology + capital + media focus," highlighting the vigorous momentum of the "launch economy."
As one of the presenting companies, Cimc Vehicles(Group)Co.,Ltd. (Stock Code: 301039.SZ) confronted industry challenges with robust technology. Liu Xiaofeng, Executive Director of the CIMC Vehicles Hanover Project, delivered a keynote speech titled "Building an Ecosystem of 'Pure Electric Tractor-Trailer Units + Operation Support Base Stations' for the New Energy Commercial Vehicle Era," providing an in-depth analysis of the development trends in the new energy heavy-duty truck industry and systematically introducing the strategic layout, implementation path, and phased achievements of the "Hanover Project."
Liu Xiaofeng explained that the popularization of new energy heavy-duty trucks is an inevitable trend, yet the industry faces systemic challenges including homogenized competition, an insufficient support system, and a lack of full lifecycle value. As an explorer in the pure electric commercial vehicle sector, CIMC Vehicles is actively breaking new ground by launching the world's first "Vehicle + Station" EV-RT ecosystem. This initiative aims to collaborate with like-minded partners across the industrial chain to proactively promote the establishment of industry standards and systematically address industry-wide difficulties.
The innovative EV-RT ecosystem concept from CIMC Vehicles primarily consists of two core elements: "Vehicle" and "Station."
On the vehicle innovation front, the pure electric tractor-trailer unit is no longer a simple combination of a traditional tractor and semi-trailer but a complete transportation solution achieved through intelligent, integrated design. CIMC Vehicles has already launched two innovative products: the EV-RT 700 pure electric tractor-trailer unit for dump trucks and the EV-RT MIX pure electric tractor-trailer unit for concrete mixers.
Regarding station support, the EV-ALFA operation support base station comprises three components: a mobile fast-charging vehicle, a control tower, and a maintenance workshop, designed to address pain points related to energy replenishment, maintenance, and fleet management for new energy heavy-duty trucks.
Simultaneously, addressing the user's paramount concern of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), CIMC Vehicles proposed a 3X3 TCO value concept, aiming for an effective operational lifespan exceeding nine years. Within this cycle, the vision is to achieve optimal full lifecycle costs through three rounds of battery cycling and cascading use.
CIMC Vehicles foresightedly pointed out that the ultimate goal for pure electric tractor-trailer units extends beyond electrification to intelligence. In the future, these units will serve as the ultimate platform for smart technologies, realizing the vision of reduced crew requirements and unmanned operation in specific scenarios. The company is advancing automation technologies for semi-trailer superstructures and plans to integrate L3/L4 autonomous driving technologies in the near future, laying the groundwork for subsequent robotization and completing the EV-RT ecosystem loop.
Upholding integrity while driving innovation, and persevering to achieve long-term goals! CIMC Vehicles is steadfastly promoting the construction of the EV-RT ecosystem, committed to becoming an explorer and promoter of the full value chain for integrated pure electric tractor-trailer units, demonstrating the innovative strength and responsible commitment of Chinese enterprises on the global new energy heavy-duty truck track.
