On October 10th, the intelligent factory of Shandong Yuantong Automobile was decorated with colorful flags. Delegations from the automotive industries of Serbia, Bulgaria and Italy gathered together to participate in the new product launch event titled “Intelligent Connectivity Globally, Embarking on a New Journey”. This grand event, which integrates technology display, cooperation signing and in-depth investigation, marks a solid step forward in the internationalization process of Yuantong Automobile.
The press conference opened at 9 a.m. in the factory’s smart exhibition hall. The general manager of Yuantong Automobile reviewed the company’s 20-year development journey: From a domestic commercial vehicle manufacturer to a representative of “Made in China” that exports to 30 countries, it has cumulatively won over 500 patents, and the proportion of new energy production lines exceeds 40%. The mid-to-high-end new energy commercial vehicles released today are precisely our latest achievements in targeting the European market. With the explanation, the new car made its debut – L4-level assisted driving, modular chassis adapted to road conditions in multiple countries, battery protection optimized for European regulations and lightweight design attracted attention on the spot. The general manager simultaneously announced the export plan: to establish five KD factories in Europe by 2026, with a focus on the Balkan Peninsula and Southern Europe, and to achieve an annual export volume of over 20,000 vehicles.
At noon, the factory held a banquet to entertain international friends. The display of Shandong cuisine flavors and intangible cultural heritage noodle art left a Serbian client exclaim, “From technology to culture, Yuantong’s dedication has given us more confidence.”
In the afternoon, the delegation visited the three major technological parks in depth. In the final assembly workshop, the flexible production line is simultaneously assembling BYD pure electric light trucks, Xiaomi SU7 modified vehicles, ZEEKR logistics vehicles and Geely overseas version SUVs. “One line is compatible with 12 brands and 20 models, yet quality control remains consistent!” ” The purchasing director of Bulgaria stopped to take notes. The Italian customer focused on the “Exeed E9″ production line: “The chassis precision and battery installation process fully meet the EU standards.”
At the end of the day, the three parties signed the annual procurement agreement, under which “Exeed E9″ will be the main new energy logistics model to be promoted in the Bulgarian and Italian markets. The general manager said, “Today’s signing is a sign of trust from global partners in Yuantong. We will adopt a more open attitude and provide high-quality solutions made in China to the international market.”
