Dongfeng Motor Unveils Three Strategic Plans and User Service Brand in Wuhan

On September 14, Dongfeng Motor Corporation opened its 10th Science and Technology Innovation Week and inaugural User Lifestyle Festival in Wuhan. The event unveiled the "Tianjing Zero Carbon" initiative, the Embodied Intelligent Vehicle Holistic Protection Plan, the "Horizon Sail" plan, and launched the group’s user service brand "Dongfeng Youxin." The "Tianjing Zero Carbon" initiative centers on a "1331" framework, aiming to collaborate with ecosystem partners to aggregate over 10 million energy replenishment facilities and achieve annual collaborative carbon reduction exceeding 1 million tons. The Embodied Intelligent Vehicle Holistic Protection Plan establishes a "1+6+4" holistic safety technology system, comprising one embodied intelligence technology foundation, six key safety technology domains, and four industrial collaboration ecosystems. The "Horizon Sail" plan sets targets for 2030: cumulative investment of RMB 50 billion in overseas markets, launch of more than 50 vehicle models, establishment of 10 large-scale overseas production bases and five overseas R&D centers, and achievement of 1.5 million vehicles sold overseas. Under this plan, passenger vehicles will focus on Europe and the Americas, while commercial vehicles will deepen presence in the Americas and Central-Northern Asia, covering five strategic regions—Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Central-Northern Africa, and Australia-New Zealand. In the first half of 2026, Dongfeng’s overseas exports grew by 97% year-on-year, with an overseas marketing network reaching 1,600 outlets across more than 150 countries and regions. Technologically, Dongfeng showcased achievements including Quantum Architecture 4.0, 12C ultra-fast charging cells, Mach Power, and solid-state batteries. In the solid-state battery field, a 0.2GWh pilot production line has been completed; the company’s self-developed 350Wh/kg hybrid solid-liquid battery is scheduled for mass production and vehicle integration in Q4 2026. By 2027, Dongfeng aims to deliver 50,000 vehicles equipped with its self-developed solid-state batteries and initiate pilot production of fast-charging solid-state batteries. In January 2026, Dongfeng completed winter testing of vehicles fitted with 350Wh/kg solid-state batteries. The Mach Power 1.5T dedicated hybrid engine achieved a peak effective thermal efficiency of 48.09%, earning the "Energy Efficiency Star" certification from China Automotive Technology & Research Center (CATARC). The "Dongfeng Youxin" brand leverages a base of over 64 million existing users, establishing a VOC (Voice of Customer) feedback collection system and creating cross-brand direct engagement channels with users.
