In the commercial vehicle sector, JAC Group has been accelerating its transition to new energy vehicles, achieving an overall year-on-year sales increase. Notably, sales of new energy commercial vehicles surged by 88% in the first half of the year.

Aside from independent R&D, the automaker also made efforts to enhance open collaboration. JAC Group signed a strategic cooperation agreement with CATL at the beginning of 2024. Since then, JAC Group has integrated CATL's battery technology into various products, including light-duty and heavy-duty trucks, passenger cars, and buses, continuously boosting product competitiveness.

In late April, JAC Group signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement with Huawei Digital Power. This collaboration will focus on a holistic approach to new energy vehicles, including the car and charging infrastructure, further deepening their partnership.
