"Three years later, new energy heavy trucks accounted for more than 5% of Shaanxi Automobile Group's total sales volume. New energy passenger car products accounted for 50% of the group's total bus fleet, and annual production of 5,000 miniature electric vehicles and 60,000 miniature electric vehicle axles." At the 2009 Shanghai International Auto Show, Shaanxi Automobile announced a three-year “Green New Energy Vehicle Development Planâ€.
Yuan Hongming, general manager of Shaanxi Auto Group, said: "In 2012, Shaanxi Auto will lead the domestic market for new energy passenger cars, trucks and micro-electric vehicles."
It is understood that most of the domestic new energy trucks are concentrated in the light truck field. In the heavy truck field, some companies have started to develop and promote LNG heavy trucks, but there are few companies involved in pure electric and hybrid vehicles. In the development plan proposed by Shaanxi Auto, it will be fully developed on CNG heavy trucks, LNG heavy trucks, electric wharf low-speed tractors, hybrid city trucks, and DME vehicles and other green commercial vehicles.
