Shacman Targets 100,000 Civilian Heavy Trucks in 2026, Leading Value Competition with Flagship NEV & Digital Platform

China’s commercial vehicle industry enters a new era of value-driven competition in 2026, with stable domestic demand and booming overseas markets becoming core growth engines. Industry forecasts predict the domestic heavy truck market will reach 800,000 to 1.1 million units this year, with new energy penetration surging to 35%-40%. Meanwhile, the replacement of pre-National IV heavy trucks (around 500,000 units to be phased out) releases substantial stock demand. Seizing these opportunities, Shacman, a top-3 player in the sector, announces an ambitious target of 100,000 civilian heavy truck sales in 2026, backed by two flagship new products and the “RongE Xing” digital service platform unveiled at its 2026 Business Conference, reinforcing its position in high-end and green transportation segments.

2025 Robust Performance Lays Foundation for 2026 Growth

Shacman closed 2025 with impressive growth, achieving a total sales volume of 195,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 16.7%. Notably, its domestic civilian product sales reached 88,000 units, soaring 60% YoY, with market share steadily climbing. This strong performance is attributed to its scenario-specific product strategy and innovative integrated marketing model, which has optimized the full-life cycle service experience for customers. “2026, as the first year of the 15th Five-Year Plan, is crucial for us to shift from scale to value,” said Yuan Hongming, Chairman of Shacman Holdings.

Flagship Products: X6000 Ultra Flagship & G6000E Integrated NEV

Two strategic new products take center stage at Shacman’s 2026 Business Conference, catering to diverse market demands:

• X6000 Ultra Flagship: Covering both diesel and gas power options, this model is tailored for high-value scenarios including daily logistics, dangerous goods transportation, and express delivery. Equipped with a top-tier powertrain, it redefines high-end heavy truck benchmarks with exceptional fuel economy and leading intelligence. Its AI-powered energy-saving system and optimized aerodynamic design significantly reduce operational costs for long-haul fleets.
• CIMC-Shacman Integrated 4.0 G6000E: Co-developed with CIMC Vehicles, this new energy model focuses on medium-to-long-haul logistics, adopting the concept of tractor-trailer integration and in-depth three-electric system integration. It achieves breakthroughs in energy consumption and intelligence, with ultra-low energy consumption and fast-charging capabilities, addressing the core pain points of new energy heavy trucks in long-distance transportation.

“RongE Xing” Digital Platform Transforms After-Market Services

Complementing its product strength, Shacman launches the “RongE Xing” digital marketing and service platform, innovating the after-market model. The platform offers one-stop solutions including fast financing approval, real-time fleet monitoring, and online maintenance appointments, significantly improving service efficiency and optimizing user experience. This digital transformation supports Shacman’s value marketing strategy, fostering an ecosystem of win-win cooperation with partners.

Aligning with Industry Trends: New Energy & Global Expansion

Shacman’s strategy closely aligns with 2026 industry trends. The company continues to advance the coordinated development of traditional and new energy vehicles, with a focus on promoting the commercialization of intelligent driving. Internationally, Shacman expands its global footprint with new energy commercial vehicles, securing major deals in Southeast Asia (a $68 million agreement to supply 520 Zenith series electric tractors to Thailand’s Kasikorn Logistics) and making inroads into Europe with the IEV7 electric van. The IEV7, meeting strict EU ECE R100.3 safety standards, has secured 180 pre-orders from German and French fleet operators.

“Our focus on product innovation, digital transformation, and value marketing will drive us to achieve the 2026 sales target,” a Shacman executive stated. “We will continue to deepen scenario-specific innovation and contribute to the high-quality development of the commercial vehicle industry.”
