Foton Motor Leads Overseas Markets with Automatic Heavy-Duty Truck Exports

Foton Motor has secured automatic heavy-duty truck orders in Colombia, serving clients across hazardous material transport, bulk cargo logistics, and vehicle leasing sectors. This achievement marks the successful introduction and expanded market share of its automatic transmission products. Backed by robust technological prowess, Foton continues to pioneer full-scenario transport solutions, reinforcing its leadership in overseas markets as a Chinese brand.

Upgraded Tech Strengthens Global Footprint

Historically, overseas consumers associated Chinese automotive brands with "affordability." Foton Motor is reshaping this perception through innovation.

At the 2019 Colombia Truck Competition, Foton launched its Auman automatic heavy-duty trucks—a first among Chinese brands in a market dominated by manual-transmission models. Over two years, Auman's automatic variants have gained traction. Beyond cost-effectiveness, Foton integrates cutting-edge technologies like hydraulic retarders, Forward Collision Warning Systems (FCWS), and Lane Departure Warning Systems (LDWS), enhancing fuel efficiency, safety, and adaptability to South America’s mountainous terrain. Orders from Nigeria, Mexico, and the Philippines further validate Foton’s global competitiveness.

Global Influence: Crafting a Compelling "Going Global" Narrative

As an early internationalizer, Foton’s strategic focus on localized solutions drives its overseas breakthroughs.

On March 9, 2022, the 10,000th New Porter NP6—developed with Piaggio and compliant with 2022 European Economic Commission standards—rolled off the production line. Amid global decarbonization efforts, Foton leads commercial vehicle electrification with hybrid, pure electric, and hydrogen fuel technologies tailored to international standards.
