BAIC FOTON presented complete vehicles and self-developed components, including several world premieres. It presented its European strategy, global milestones, and new flagship products, thereby completing the transition from a traditional export business to an international model covering the entire value chain. BAIC FOTON delivered its 13 millionth vehicle worldwide – the GALAXUS 9 tested in Spain – representing progress in the European market for premium long-haul vehicles. FOTON operates in over 140 countries. Its goals for 2030: New energies will account for 50% of revenue, and overseas revenue will reach 40%. Europe is an important hub. Under the motto “In Europe, for Europe,” FOTON focuses on locally adapted products, ecosystem competencies, and partnerships. The company offers battery-electric, hybrid, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles – heavy-duty trucks, buses, light commercial vehicles, and pickups. The company plans a local new energy ecosystem, sales in almost 20 European markets, more than 300 service points, a German spare parts center, and local assembly by 2028. The subsidiary BROCK supports connected services. The “CAVAN BEACON,” an intelligent, CO₂-free heavy-duty long-haul truck, celebrated its world debut.
