In the first year of the "15th Five-Year Plan," China's commercial vehicle market is entering a value-reconstruction phase centered on new energy. In this new cycle, the key differentiator for brands is their ability to help users generate profit amidst the major transition trend.

　　On March 27, the 2026 Hefei New Energy Commercial Vehicle Exhibition and the 2nd Green Logistics Development Conference opened at the Hefei Binhu International Convention and Exhibition Center. Under the theme "Intelligent Green Mobility, Breakthrough for Symbiosis," JAC Commercial Vehicle showcased its full range of new energy products and provided an in-depth explanation of its full-lifecycle user service system.

　　From light-duty to heavy-duty trucks, and from trucks to vans, this full-scenario product matrix and full-lifecycle service system reflect JAC's deep understanding of logistics industry pain points and its precise answer to the question of "how to help users earn more."

Technology Foundation: Six Decades of Accumulation and Intelligent Reconfiguration

　　For commercial vehicles, the new energy transition is a comprehensive reconstruction involving the chassis, electronic controls, energy replenishment, and safety. JAC Commercial Vehicle's key strength lies in its sixty years of deep chassis technology expertise.

　　Yu Shixia, Chief Engineer of the Commercial Vehicle Product Development Institute at the JAC Group Technology Center, stated that JAC is continuously transferring its lightweighting, load-bearing, and braking safety technologies accumulated in the fuel vehicle era to its new energy platforms, building a comprehensive competitive advantage in areas such as the chassis, three-electric systems, and intelligent configurations.

　　At the vehicle technology level, JAC has developed the industry's first full-scenario high-intelligence technology brand, "Star Chain No.1," and has established a strategic layout focused on its "Pure Electric No.1" technology platform, characterized by "pure electric as the mainstay, hybrid as a supplement, and multi-energy parallel development." This platform is compatible with all charging modes, including fast charging, ultra-fast charging, and battery swapping.

　　Simultaneously, JAC Commercial Vehicle has formed deep strategic partnerships with industry leaders such as CATL and Huawei. Leveraging core technologies like its self-developed BMS 3.0 battery management platform, it is continuously advancing its three-electric systems. Currently, JAC Commercial Vehicle is among the first to complete commercial vehicle information security certification. Its platform-based VCU architecture supports 18 functional modules, enabling different energy forms to be integrated under a single architecture, meaning that "an advancement in one module benefits all platforms synchronously."

　　Furthermore, the Xingang World-Class Intelligent Manufacturing Base, with a total investment of RMB 5.5 billion, encompasses a 3,900-mu intelligent manufacturing plant and a fully functional vehicle test ground, establishing a solid moat for product reliability.

New Energy Product Matrix: Full-Scenario Coverage

　　At this exhibition, JAC Commercial Vehicle presented a full-scenario new energy product matrix covering micro trucks, light trucks, heavy trucks, vans, and autonomous delivery vehicles, suitable for over a hundred logistics scenarios including cold chain, commercial transport, green channel, and urban delivery.

　　In the light truck segment, JAC introduced four pure electric series: ES, EV, EK, and ET, all sharing a common underlying intelligent electric chassis and electronic control architecture. The ES9 focuses on high battery capacity and an intelligent chassis, equipped with CATL's latest batteries, suitable for intercity high-efficiency logistics; the EV9 series emphasizes high cost-performance for urban delivery; and the Kunpeng ET9 sets a benchmark for energy consumption in long-haul transport with a low drag coefficient of 0.33 and a seven-in-one power domain controller.

　　In the small truck segment, the Kaida EX6 and U series offer a passenger-car-like driving experience, featuring light-truck-grade electric motors that provide significant power advantages in their class, and come standard with EHB electronic hydraulic braking for upgraded braking performance.

　　The VAN series targets urban logistics scenarios. The Van Baolu highlights its spacious interior and high load capacity, offering various battery capacity options. With a body-on-frame design and a maximum payload of 4.2 tons, it leads its class.

　　In the heavy-duty truck segment, JAC unveiled new pure electric products based on an all-new 2.0 high-voltage electronic control architecture, featuring the star model Kuayue X7, covering tractors, cargo trucks, and dump trucks.

　　JAC also introduced its second-generation P2 heavy-duty hybrid and range-extended models, further enriching its new energy portfolio. The Kala autonomous intelligent vehicle, showcased at the event, possesses L4-level autonomous driving capabilities and can be adapted for diverse scenarios such as autonomous delivery, vending, and operations within closed parks.

From "Selling Vehicles" to "Helping Users Earn Money"

　　Beyond technical specifications, JAC aims to deliver user-centric value. Gan Tian, Deputy General Manager of the Commercial Vehicle Marketing Division at JAC Motors, summarized the core demands of logistics users as four major pain points: range anxiety, efficiency gaps, downtime losses, and cost overruns – fundamentally, the vehicle's ability to generate profit is failing to keep pace with the user's business growth.

　　JAC's proposed solution is to comprehensively address these issues through four dimensions: products, technology, services, and ecosystem. Gan Tian cited several operational examples:

　　Fleet owner Mr. Hu drove the Kunpeng ET9 on a 364-kilometer highway route from Hefei to Wuxi. With a full load and air conditioning on, he completed the trip without needing to recharge, achieving 3.1 kilometers per kilowatt-hour, surpassing the industry average of 2.5 kilometers, resulting in an additional monthly income of RMB 3,000 to 4,000. Cold-chain user Mr. Zhang, using the ES9 for 100,000 kilometers annually, saw his operational costs reduced by 50% compared to a diesel truck, saving RMB 50,000 to 60,000 per year. Urban delivery driver Master Jiang, using the Kaida U7 in Chongqing, increased his daily order volume by 30%. Young entrepreneur Li Liangliang, who chose the Van Baolu V10, shortened his investment payback period by six months.

　　Behind these cases is JAC's scenario-based product matching logic: equipping vehicles with high-efficiency constant-temperature management systems for extreme cold in the north, IP68 battery protection for waterproofing in the south, and standard IPB intelligent braking systems in mountainous areas. Gan Tian emphasized, "The core is to make the vehicle adapt to the severe challenges of the scenario, not to make the user's profits suffer from the vehicle's inadequacies."

Full-Lifecycle Service System Implementation

　　To comprehensively support user profitability, JAC has built a full-lifecycle solution covering "selection, usage, management, and replacement."

　　In terms of service network, JAC has over 1,600 service outlets nationwide, averaging one per 50 kilometers, and implements a "331 response mechanism" – 3-minute response, 30-minute solution proposal, and issue resolution within one day.

　　The "Intelligent Cloud Link" platform monitors over 200 data points from more than 300,000 vehicles in real-time, achieving a fault prediction accuracy rate of 90%, transforming passive repairs into active warnings, with the goal of maintaining vehicle availability above 98%.

　　Digitally, the revamped "JAC Trucker APP" is scheduled to launch on May 20 this year, offering features such as freight matching, charging station location, and maintenance reservations.

　　To embody its philosophy of "caring for the vehicle and caring more for the driver," JAC established a RMB 1 billion "Light Chasing Fund" last year to provide trade-in and service support for million-kilometer users, aiming to build the industry's first "commercial vehicle value community" to ensure long-term support for users' wealth-creation journey.

　　At the event, JAC also held a ceremony to honor eight loyal users, who have personally verified JAC's quality in their daily operations, with the title of "No.1 Partner."

　　From sixty years of chassis expertise to the "Star Chain No.1" technology foundation; from a product matrix covering a hundred scenarios to a service system spanning the entire user lifecycle, JAC Commercial Vehicle is leveraging new energy and intelligence as twin engines to put the concept of "helping users earn money" into practice. It aims to help Chinese transporters break through and achieve symbiosis during this critical period of industry transformation, driving towards a broader future of green and intelligent logistics.
