At present, the mainland heavy truck market as a whole is still in the stage of recovery growth, with the intensification of market competition, the transportation of environmental benefits squeezed, lower cost of gas heavy trucks to achieve rapid volume. In the face of changes in market structure and customer demand, Auman takes users as the center and launches Auman Galaxy, Auman EST Xinghui Edition, and Auman GTL Star Wing Edition gas vehicle products, realizing full platform coverage, creating LNG + CNG dual power, as well as a variety of horsepower segments and gas cylinder combinations, realizing full coverage of subdivided scenarios, and providing systematic solutions for different users in different scenarios.

In response to the upgrade of user needs, Auman focuses on the continuous improvement of product performance and quality, through the exclusive super power chain equipped with intelligent control system, extreme wind resistance reduction measures, and differentiated lightweight solutions that match different models, so that the products are more cost-effective and cardholders can make more money. The 24 models of the gas vehicles released this time are equipped with a new gas super power chain, which is integrated and developed by Foton Cummins and ZF, which brings stronger power output and less gas consumption with better matching. In particular, differentiated solutions are developed for different models and different working conditions to achieve the best competitiveness of products.
For example, the gas super power chain realizes the central integrated control of the VCU, the linkage of multiple controllers of the whole vehicle, and improves the overall economy through subdivided working conditions and scenario-based customization, and the overall gas consumption is reduced by about 3%; Predictive gear shifting uses electronic maps to intelligently plan gear selection, reduce power loss, and save 2-3% of energy; The intelligent EPB function judges the driving status of the vehicle in real time, identifies signals such as load, slope, throttle, altitude, etc., and intelligently switches the modes of different power to achieve a 1-3% reduction in gas consumption. Based on the calculation of Auman's 580 horsepower gas vehicle, the comprehensive gas consumption of 100 kilometers is 1-2kg less than that of the same type of products, and it can save 20,000 yuan per year.
