In July 2025, the International Conference on Academic and Industrial Integration of Heavy-Duty Truck Innovation and Development and the New Technology Launch Conference were grandly held in Beijing. As a major event for China's commercial vehicle industry, the conference brought together leading scholars, automotive executives, and technical experts from around the world to discuss the latest breakthroughs in the heavy-duty truck industry in new energy, intelligent driving, and hydrogen fuel technology.

I. Conference Highlights: Industry Trends and Cutting-Edge Technologies

1. New Energy Heavy-Duty Trucks Enter "Scaled Application" Stage

The conference noted that 2025 will be a breakthrough year for new energy heavy-duty trucks, with pure electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles accelerating their deployment in applications such as ports, mining areas, and urban waste transportation. Beiben Heavy-Duty Truck showcased its latest battery-swap pure electric heavy-duty truck at the conference. Featuring high-energy-density batteries and intelligent energy management technology, it boasts a range exceeding 500 kilometers and a charging time reduced to 15 minutes, significantly improving the operational efficiency of electric heavy-duty trucks.

2. Intelligent Driving Moves Towards Level 4 Commercialization

Several automakers and technology companies (such as Huawei and Baidu) jointly released Level 4 autonomous heavy-duty truck solutions. Beiben Heavy-Duty Truck also launched an unmanned mining truck based on 5G+V2X technology. This truck has been tested in mining areas in Inner Mongolia, enabling all-weather automated transportation and reducing labor costs by over 30%.

3. Hydrogen Fuel Technology Sees a Breakthrough

Hydrogen energy is considered the ultimate solution for zero-emission heavy-duty trucks. During the conference, Beiben, in collaboration with Tsinghua University and the State Energy Group, unveiled a new generation of high-power hydrogen fuel cell systems. The system boasts a range exceeding 1,000 kilometers and requires only eight minutes to refuel. Mass production is expected in 2026.

II. Beiben Heavy-Duty Truck Launch: Three New Models Unveiled

1. Beiben V5ET Intelligent Tractor

Equipped with an AI-powered fuel-saving system, it reduces overall fuel consumption by 12%. Equipped with Level 3 autonomous driving and supporting high-speed No-Available Autonomous Driving (NOA), the vehicle's computer system is connected to the Beiben cloud control platform for intelligent fleet dispatching.

2. Beiben H2 Hydrogen Dump Truck

Equipped with a 240kW hydrogen fuel cell and a high-power electric motor, it delivers 2,800 Nm of torque. Designed specifically for use in mines, steel mills, and other applications, it offers zero emissions and high-load resistance.

3. Beiben E3 Electric Dump Truck

Equipped with a battery swap mode, the system allows for battery replacement in three minutes. Its intelligent monitoring system optimizes energy consumption in real time, and the vehicle has a range of up to 400 kilometers.

III. Industry-Academic-Research Integration: Beiben Signs Cooperation Agreements with Universities and Technology Companies

During the conference, Beiben Heavy-Duty Truck signed strategic agreements with Tsinghua University, Tongji University, CATL, and other institutions to jointly develop: solid-state battery technology (expected for commercial use in 2027), hydrogen energy storage and transportation solutions, and vehicle-road cooperative autonomous driving systems.

IV. Industry Outlook: How Will the Heavy-Duty Truck Market Evolve from 2025 to 2030?

2025-2027: New energy heavy-duty truck penetration will reach 30%, with L3 autonomous driving becoming standard for high-end models.

2028-2030: Hydrogen fuel heavy-duty truck costs will drop significantly, and L4 autonomous driving will become commonplace in closed environments.

Future Core of Competition: No longer simply a horsepower competition, but a comprehensive competition of "intelligence + zero emissions + full lifecycle cost."
