Now let’s look at Hande Axle in the same exhibition area. This time, it brought a total of six axle assemblies, covering different application scenarios such as tractor units, trailers, medium- and light-duty trucks, and telehandlers, with solutions for both conventional fuel-powered models and new energy models.

Hande Axle focused on showcasing high torque, high efficiency, lightweight design, and long-cycle maintenance-free operation. It also has deep technological roots in the European market: in its early years, it introduced Austrian Steyr axle technology, and in 2004 it entered technical cooperation with Germany’s MAN.

From introducing European technology to now returning to Europe with its own axle products for exhibition, Hande’s appearance in Hanover also demonstrates the technical accumulation and manufacturing capabilities of Chinese axle enterprises in drivetrain systems.

Now we have arrived at the GAC Lingcheng booth, located in Hall 35, EG-3. This is GAC Lingcheng’s first time participating in IAA. Under the theme “Leading the Journey to the Future, Walking with the World,” it brings both its heavy truck and light commercial vehicle business lines to Hanover through an indoor-plus-outdoor dual-booth layout.

The new light commercial vehicle brand MONTX (Lingyue), which has just completed its international debut, brought the P10 pickup concept and V10 van concept to the site. The V10 is called an “All-Domain Mobile Ready Cabin,” and its boxy, rugged styling is highly recognizable.

On the heavy truck side, there are two T9s. One is equipped with L4 autonomous driving technology in cooperation with Pony.ai, and the other adopts a bottom battery-swap solution in cooperation with Aulton, featuring a 600 kWh battery and a range of about 475 kilometers. There is also a SMILODON Pro production pickup on site.

During the media day, GAC Lingcheng also held a press conference here and released a global user co-creation plan. For GAC Lingcheng, which is participating in IAA for the first time, this trip to Hanover is also a concentrated appearance aimed at the global market. From MONTX to new energy heavy trucks, how it will move into more overseas markets next is worth continuing to watch.

Now we have come to the Chery Commercial Vehicle booth, located at Hall 13, E54. This is Chery Commercial Vehicle's first participation in IAA. With the theme of "Unbounded Potential, Creating the Future," this exhibition not only brings multiple complete vehicles, but also brings supporting facilities such as green energy equipment and smart logistics together to the site, showcasing its systematic solutions.

On site, the first mass-produced large VAN of the DELIVAN brand is displayed. Earlier today, this vehicle successfully completed its global debut in Hannover, generating an extremely high level of on-site interest. In addition to the base vehicle, four scenario-based versions developed in cooperation with local European conversion companies are also displayed on site, covering different applications such as urban distribution, cold chain, and express delivery.

United Heavy Truck brought two new energy heavy trucks, "Dianfeng" and "Yunfeng," adopting battery electric and range-extended technology routes respectively, targeting transportation scenarios under different distances and energy replenishment conditions. In addition, a driverless logistics vehicle was also exhibited on site.

During the media day, United Heavy Truck globally released the "Global Integrated Transport Capacity Solution" here and completed the delivery signing for the first customer vehicle of the non-European transport corridor, further presenting Chery Commercial Vehicle's overall layout from complete vehicles and green energy equipment to smart logistics and transport capacity services.

Now we are at the SuperPanther booth, located at Hall 12, D46. Compared with the concept car displayed when it first exhibited two years ago, what SuperPanther has brought this time is the production version that has already been localized in Europe—the eTopas 600.

This vehicle is equipped with a 621 kWh battery pack and an 876V high-voltage platform; its dual-motor peak power reaches 692 kW, and the officially announced range is approximately 500 km. In terms of charging, it supports parallel fast charging via dual CCS2 connectors, with combined charging power approaching 660 kW. The booth also showcased an MCS megawatt-level ultra-fast charging and V2G vehicle-to-grid interaction solution, and real-vehicle test rides and test drives were made available in an outdoor area.

Currently, the eTopas 600 has already completed customer deliveries and real-world operations in Europe. From concept launch to the presentation of operational data, SuperPanther's participation in this exhibition demonstrated the solid progress of China's new-energy heavy truck new forces in localized manufacturing, efficient charging, and fleet operation implementation in Europe.

Now we are at the SAIC Commercial Vehicle booth, located at Hall 13, E90. This time, SAIC's lineup is very comprehensive: from pickups, light buses, and light trucks to 40-tonne heavy trucks and unmanned logistics vehicles, all are present, covering a wide range of transportation scenarios.

Among them, the SAIC Hongyan eDELIVER 420L all-electric heavy truck makes its European debut at this IAA. It is equipped with a CATL 615kWh battery, supports megawatt-level ultra-fast charging, has a peak power of 1.31MW, charges from 20% to 80% in just 25 minutes, and has a rated battery life of 1.5 million kilometers.

Also on site are the all-new Xingji L, the eTerron 9 all-electric four-wheel-drive pickup, and the RoboVAN unmanned logistics vehicle; the eDELIVER series light buses and light trucks have also entered the official test-drive lineup. In addition to complete vehicles, SAIC also showcased V2X bidirectional charging technology and its local direct-operated service network in Germany, and has laid out its presence across products, energy replenishment, and after-sales service.

Now we have arrived at the Foton booth, located at B02 in Hall 21. The booth covers an area of more than 1,000 square meters, making it Foton's largest-ever participation in IAA.

Foton's theme this time is "EASY MOVE," and it has brought 7 new energy vehicles and 6 self-developed core components to the site. From heavy-duty trucks for trunk-line logistics, medium vans, and light trucks to 12-meter buses and sanitation washing and sweeping vehicles, they basically cover different use scenarios such as long-distance logistics, urban delivery, public transportation, and municipal sanitation.

During the media day, Foton also concentrated on releasing several important pieces of information here: the all-new European strategy was officially released, further clarifying the layout of the local dealership and service network; the 13 millionth vehicle worldwide was delivered on site; and the Cavan BEACON electric/hydrogen-capable heavy truck also made its overseas debut.

Another place worth seeing is the components exhibition area. The three-electric system, power batteries, and megawatt-level energy replenishment equipment are all displayed together with the vehicles. Compared with simply bringing more vehicle models to Europe, what Foton wants to showcase this time is a complete new energy layout spanning vehicles, core components, and the energy replenishment system.

This is the Auman Galaxy 9 PHEV heavy truck, and this vehicle has already completed field testing in Spain.

The Galaxy 9 has chosen a plug-in hybrid technology route, which mainly corresponds to the European medium- and long-distance transportation scenario. The vehicle can switch between pure electric and hybrid modes according to different operating conditions. For routes where charging infrastructure coverage is not yet fully consistent, this solution also provides another new energy option. Many European visitors at the scene focused their attention on pure electric range and TCO.

This IAA also marks CAVAN's first relatively complete brand and product showcase overseas.

The most important new vehicle is the BEACON heavy-duty truck. This is its overseas debut, a heavy-duty truck developed on a native new energy platform and compatible with both battery-electric and hydrogen routes, mainly targeting medium- and long-haul trunk-line transportation of over 300 kilometers.

The vehicle next to it is the Lefu battery-electric mid-size van, already launched in Europe, mainly for urban distribution. In addition, CAVAN also released on site the new-energy-dedicated van platform CAVAN C1, emphasizing a battery-electric architecture and modular design.

So, from the products brought this time, it can be seen that CAVAN's entry into Europe is not just about launching one vehicle: BEACON addresses trunk-line transportation, Lefu enters urban distribution, and CAVAN C1 provides a platform foundation for subsequent van products. What kind of product lineup it will form in Europe next is the part more worth watching after this debut.

Auhawk Aumark has brought two all-electric models tailored to specific operational scenarios.

One is the Auhawk EHL all-electric washing and sweeping vehicle, aimed at urban sanitation and municipal cleaning in Europe; the other is the Aumark Z all-electric light truck, for urban distribution and short- to medium-haul logistics.

Both vehicles are based on the Foton Qimingxing all-electric light truck platform and support 2C fast charging. Official data shows that charging from 20% to 80% can take as little as 18 minutes. For urban distribution and sanitation vehicles, in addition to range, charging time is also directly related to daily operational efficiency.

So, looking at these two vehicles together: one serves municipal sanitation, and the other serves urban logistics; both are fairly typical application scenarios for new energy commercial vehicles in European cities. The focus of Auhawk Aumark's showcase this time is also clearly more oriented toward deployment capability in specific scenarios.

Now let's look at Aumark. This time it brings the Jidian pure electric light truck, based on the Foton Qimingxing pure electric light truck platform, mainly targeting the urban delivery market.

Technically, through low wind resistance, lightweight design, and electric drive system optimization, the vehicle's energy consumption is reduced by 20% compared with the industry average. The powertrain uses an SiC (silicon carbide) motor controller + an oil-cooled flat-wire motor, with a peak power of 230 kW and maximum torque of 550 N·m, while supporting 2C fast charging. The chassis is equipped with FBS brake-by-wire and steer-by-wire, and supports L2-level combined assisted driving.

In addition, it adopts one-step entry, the cab has 270 L of storage space, and the high-roof version can also allow a 1.9-meter occupant to lie down. From energy consumption and power to chassis intelligence and cab experience, Aumark Jidian has delivered solid performance across several key metrics for pure electric light trucks this time, and has also shown the European market a new level of efficiency and technology for China's new energy light trucks.
