Hard-core Heavy Industry | Weichai Keeps Rolling out New Products

In 2024, despite the dual pressures posed by domestic sluggish industry and international weakening market, Shandong Heavy Industry Group (Shandong H.I.) still lived up to the expectations, with core business indicators reaching the best levels in history.

Starting from now, the reports titled "Forging Ahead, Shouldering Major Responsibilities: On the High-Quality Development of Shandong Heavy Industry Group" will take "Pathfinder Code" and "Hard-core Heavy Industry" as themes to decrypt the power source that enables Shandong Heavy Industry to keep taking the lead.

As a core business segment under Shandong H.I., Weichai continuously released new products and upgraded new technologies in 2024, leading the industry in all domains and becoming a strong engine that drives Shandong H.I. to move ahead against all odds and stay at the forefront of the industry.

On December 3, 2024, Weichai launched dozens of new products in one go at the 2025 Global Partners Conference, fully demonstrating its product advantages in full series and all domains as well as its full-fledged aftermarket services.

Of which, three brand-new gas-based 4.0 power products, namely WP3NNG, WP8NG, and WP16NG, helped further shore up Weichai's dominant position in the gas power field.

At such a global event, Weichai debuted high-energy-density and large-capacity blade batteries such as B1Y and B2A for light/heavy-duty trucks. Besides, 10 full-series construction machinery batteries also made a dazzling appearance at the conference, with their power capacities ranging from 280kWh to 765 kWh and adapting to the electricity needs of different niche markets such as loaders, excavators, and mining trucks.

　　“New” and “Large”

Weichai ceremoniously launched the Baudouin 20M55 high-end power product that is tailored for data centers, leading the industry’s high-power trend with a single-unit power of 4,550 kW.

In the field of agricultural equipment power, Weichai released a full series of new hydraulic power assembly products for low-speed harvesters, with power ranging 125Ps to 530 Ps, which can meet the power demands for harvesting the three main grain crops as well as cash crops. That injects new-quality productive forces into the green and high-efficiency development of agricultural equipment.

Also, Weichai grandly released the WP3.6N hydraulic power assembly and a full series of hybrid power assembly products including the WP14T mining truck hybrid power assembly, in an effort to provide global customers with all-in-one construction machinery power solutions.

In addition to hard-core products, Weichai provides hard-core services. Relying on its two APPs "Weichai For You" and "Weichai Service", Weichai has created a brand-new digital service platform for customers and service centers (stations), marking another significant leap in Weichai's service IT and setting a new benchmark for industry services.

Looking ahead, Shandong H.I. will always focus on developing its core business, open up new tracks and seek new increments in the strategic transformation of new energy, digital intelligence, and aftermarket, and quicken the pace to develop into a world-class transnational high-end equipment group featuring leading technologies and green development.
