In the urban cold chain logistics market, blue-plate light trucks have limited load capacity and are prone to overloading, while yellow-plate vehicles are restricted from entering urban areas. The difficulty of balancing access rights and payload capacity has long plagued transporters. Addressing this pain point, the JAC New Energy ES9 offers a new solution with its innovative positioning of "yellow-plate payload capacity + green-plate access rights."

　　On May 10, the JAC New Energy ES9 Yellow-Green Plate Product Launch and Strategic Delivery Ceremony was held in Shanghai. As a pure electric light truck, the ES9 is built on a dedicated chassis platform with underlying optimizations, designed to provide a comprehensive solution that combines payload capacity, access rights, and high operational efficiency.

Achieving Both Yellow-Plate Payload and Green-Plate Access

　　As a pure electric product deeply customized for cold chain logistics scenarios, the core logic of the JAC New Energy ES9 directly targets "compliant heavy loading" and "unrestricted driving."

　　In terms of chassis and load-bearing performance, the ES9 demonstrates the advantages of yellow-plate vehicles. It features a 214 straight-through frame design, matched with an 850mm wide-opening frame, a rear track width of up to 1785mm, and 4/7+7 reinforced leaf springs.

　　This high-specification chassis endows the ES9 with a gross vehicle weight of up to 10 tons and accommodates cargo boxes up to 5.5 meters long. This not only enhances heavy-load capacity and anti-vibration performance but also completely frees cold chain transporters from the compliance worries of blue-plate light trucks that are "overloaded as soon as they are loaded."

　　In terms of access rights, the model enjoys the same traffic advantages as new energy green-plate vehicles, effectively circumventing the traffic restrictions imposed on traditional yellow-plate trucks in most cities, allowing for smooth travel on urban roads. This dual combination of "yellow-plate payload capacity + green-plate access rights" significantly improves the timeliness and per-trip capacity of cold chain vehicles in cross-regional and complex route transportation.

　　For the core electric drive system, the ES9 is equipped with a 140 kWh large-capacity single-battery pack from CATL. Under full load, its CHTC-LT range can exceed 300 kilometers, sufficient to cover multiple round trips in a day or longer one-way journeys for urban and suburban cold chain deliveries.

　　To meet high operational efficiency requirements, the vehicle comes standard with 2C dual-gun fast charging technology, which can charge the battery from 20% to 80% in as fast as 18 minutes. Drivers can quickly recharge during loading and unloading breaks at the warehouse.

　　Furthermore, the vehicle adopts a CTP (Cell-to-Pack) integrated mid-mounted battery platform design, equipped with a liquid cooling and heating high-efficiency temperature control system to ensure battery charge and discharge stability in extreme heat or cold. The manufacturer also provides an extended warranty of 8 years or 600,000 kilometers. The inclusion of a deep regenerative braking system further reduces the total cost of ownership over the vehicle's lifecycle.

Completing Bulk Deliveries and Deepening Niche Application Scenarios

　　The launch event not only detailed the technology but also showcased the model's tangible progress in the B-end logistics market. JAC Motors signed strategic agreements with key corporate clients and held the first batch of vehicle key handover ceremonies, marking the official start of ES9's commercial operations.

　　At the subsequent delivery ceremony, the first batch of JAC New Energy ES9 Yellow-Green Plate products officially departed, set to be fully deployed in the urban cold chain logistics networks for fresh produce, pharmaceuticals, and other goods in East China.

　　Against the backdrop of intensifying competition in the new energy commercial vehicle sector, scenario-based and specialized approaches have become key directions. JAC Motors stated that it will continue to improve its new energy product matrix, enhance service capabilities, and promote the synergistic development of green transportation and corporate operational efficiency.

　　As urban logistics systems accelerate their transition to low-carbon models, new energy cold chain transportation is entering a new phase of development. The launch and delivery of the JAC New Energy ES9 Yellow-Green Plate products will help the urban cold chain logistics industry steadily advance towards a low-carbon, compliant, and efficient future.
