On November 19, Pony.ai made an announcement via a statement issued on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, revealing that it had forged a cooperation pact with Sany Heavy Truck and Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor. The aim is to collaboratively develop a line of fourth-generation autonomous trucks. The truck system within this line is designed on a platform basis, ensuring compatibility with a diverse range of vehicle models. The inaugural two models will be built upon the cutting-edge pure electric platforms of Sany Heavy Truck and Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor. These models are slated for large-scale mass production, with plans to produce thousands of units. The first batch is anticipated to start operations in 2026. The mass production of this truck line is set to propel the progress and implementation of autonomous truck technology, steering the industry toward extensive unmanned commercial operations.
