With annual sales of heavy-duty trucks in China of about 1.5 million, it is the world's largest truck market. The 14th Five-Year Plan mentions China's goal of reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions by 2025 and commits to achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. In this context, Gesheng China was established in Yangshan Comprehensive Free Trade Zone, Lingang New Area of Shanghai Free Trade Zone.
The establishment of Gesheng China also demonstrates the ambition of the French GAUSSIN Group to globalize, and at present, the Gesheng Group has reached the rest of the world. In January, Gosan took the world's first hydrogen-powered race car to the Dakar Rally in Saudi Arabia. In 2021, Ge Sheng also won the World Autonomous Transport Challenge in Dubai in conjunction with Chinese company Neolix Neolix.
