2021 is the 70th anniversary of Yuchai's establishment and the first year of the official switch of National Six. On September 29, Yuchai grandly held the 70 year National Six Cities Wealth Creation Activity (Shanxi Station) and the launching ceremony of the 14th China International Truck Energy Saving Competition in Shanxi. At the same time, it launched brand activities such as the # Upsurge Yuchai Praise China Tiktok Challenge Competition, and the travel notes of Sany Zhiyuan Meeting. This is a grand event for Yuchai to share the achievements of 70 years of development, and also a comprehensive review of Yuchai's National VI products jointly conducted by Yuchai, customers, authoritative media organizations, and partners.
To fully verify the performance of Yuchai's National VI products, the company has collaborated with host manufacturers and authoritative institutions since the beginning of this year to conduct neutral, impartial, and objective evaluations of Yuchai's National VI products through evaluation agencies. This allows the products to undergo rigorous tests under the spotlight, allowing customers to have a deeper understanding of Yuchai's products and reducing user selection costs.
There are YCY24 light-duty engines, as well as Yuchai YCK11 and YCK13 heavy-duty engines, diesel engines, and gas engines; In terms of application scenarios, there are not only the Gobi Plateau in the western desert, but also congested areas in North China, high-altitude roads in Northeast China, and professional testing sites such as Dingyuan in Anhui; In terms of vehicle product selection, there are both established car companies such as Dongfeng, FAW Jiefang, and Shaanxi Automobile Commercial Vehicle, as well as new industry players such as Sany Heavy Truck; In terms of testing scope, there are both long-distance reliability tests and fuel consumption tests, which are comprehensive tests of the entire lifecycle operating costs.
In May, the Zhengzhou Nissan new vernon diesel pickup truck equipped with Yuchai light engine YCY24 fully escorted the seventh thousand people walking in the Gobi. The vehicle easily climbed numerous sand dunes, earth slopes, experienced rainstorm, and drove through the muddy road of the Gobi after the heavy rain.
In June, the Dongfeng Changxing D7V gas tractor, equipped with the Yuchai Guo six horsepower engine YCK13N, was loaded with 49 tons of cargo. It departed from Xi'an, the starting point of the Silk Road, and crossed Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, and Xinjiang, climbing long uphill slopes, crossing high altitudes, and passing through uninhabited areas. It lasted for 7 days, with a total mileage of over 3000 kilometers, and finally arrived in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang.
In September, at the 14th China International Truck Energy Conservation Competition, the Chenglong H7, equipped with the Yuchai National Six Horsepower Engine YCK11, traveled over 1500 kilometers from Handan to Chengdu, with a comprehensive fuel consumption as low as 27.6L/100km; Sany Heavy Truck Zhiyuan will challenge the engine limit along the 4000 kilometer route to Tibet.
Through a series of practical tests and brand activities, the reputation of "professional and reliable, cost-effective and worry free" has gradually formed. Yuchai speaks with facts, data, product strength, and tests its products with practice. National VI products such as the best quality light engine YCY24, the maximum horsepower four cylinder engine YCK05, and the lightest and most energy-efficient 11 liter heavy engine are increasingly recognized by users.
The 70 year 70 city event and the surging Yuchai Praise China Tiktok Challenge are important bridges built by Yuchai to communicate with customers. Yuchai will travel around 70 cities at home and abroad to listen to customers' voices and create customized products and services for customers through the combination of dealer customer communication activities and large-scale exhibition activities organized by Yuchai. Users can search the topic of "surging Yuchai, praising China" through Tiktok, participate in the event, and divide the event's award of more than 100000 yuan.
Over the past 70 years, Yuchai has developed from a local small factory to one of the top 100 global automotive parts companies, creating one industry miracle after another: from National One to National Six, leading step by step; From the research and development of China's first domestically produced automotive chip ECU, China's first ISG bus hybrid, China's first Euro 6 and Euro 6 diesel engines, to the world's first power split plug-in hybrid, Yuchai leads the industry development process from the perspective of user demand and driving the development of national industry.
Yuchai always puts customers at the center and drives high-quality development with technological innovation. This year, Yuchai has accumulated production and sales of over 10 million units, becoming the first Chinese diesel engine company to set a record of 10 million units.
Throughout Yuchai's 70 year history of struggle, it is not only a history of self-improvement for all Yuchai builders, but also a history of working hand in hand with customers, distributors, and partners. As one of the important strategic partners, Cheng Yongming, Deputy General Manager of Dongfeng Liuqi Commercial Vehicle Sales Company, brought congratulations on behalf of Liuqi. He said that after decades of cooperation, Dongfeng Liuqi and Yuchai shoulder the historical responsibility of revitalizing the national brand. He hopes to overcome obstacles together, forge ahead, grow together, further enhance the strategic cooperation between the two sides, build a community with a shared future, and continue to provide users with more professional, convenient, and efficient services, with ingenuity to help China's logistics industry take off.
It is reported that 22 K11N units were also delivered on site, which is commendable in the current context of high gas prices. This proves that after early operation and improvement, the reliability has been improved and the product advantages have gradually been reflected.
