Project Execution and Collaboration
To facilitate efficient communication and problem-solving, we established a dedicated WeChat group, bringing together engineering teams from both companies. This platform allowed for real-time discussion and on-site debugging, ensuring a smooth development process. Our software engineers customized the control software to align with the client’s specific vehicle requirements, and regular video meetings were held to address any challenges encountered during testing.
Results and Achievements
In 2022, the client successfully completed vehicle verification for their electric pickup trucks and proceeded to the SOP phase. They introduced eight different models based on the same electric axle system and held a local press conference to showcase their new lineup. The client expressed gratitude for our technical support and responsiveness throughout the project.
By the end of 2022, the client commenced mass production and placed an order for 1,000 sets of our electric powertrain systems for their pickup trucks. This collaboration not only highlighted our capability to deliver high-quality, customized solutions but also solidified our partnership with the client for future projects.
