On March 21st, 2025, two heavy truck models, the Foton Auman Galaxy 5 and Auman Xingyi, successfully passed the strict review of the China Automotive Industry Chain Carbon Publicity Platform (hereinafter referred to as the “CPP Platform”) and were awarded the carbon footprint quantification label. This is another honor after four light truck models of Futian Automobile were awarded the carbon footprint quantification label, and it is also the first batch for heavy truck models in the commercial vehicle industry. This not only demonstrates Foton Automobile’s leading position in the field of green and low-carbon development but also reflects its firm implementation of the new energy strategy and continuous innovation.
Carbon Footprint Quantification Label Certificate of Foton Auman Galaxy 5,Two Heavy Truck Models Awarded the Carbon Footprint Quantification Label, Setting an Industry Benchmark
This time, Foton Automobile has a total of two models awarded the carbon footprint quantification label, including the fuel version of the heavy truck Auman Galaxy 5 and the pure electric version of Auman Xingyi. The carbon footprint quantification label is the authoritative recognition of the carbon emissions throughout the product life cycle by the China Automotive Industry Chain Carbon Publicity Platform. Foton Automobile’s consecutive awards not only reflect its low-carbon capabilities in product design, manufacturing, use, and other aspects but also demonstrate its firm commitment to green development.
The carbon footprint of Auman Galaxy 5 is 27.95gCO2e/tkm. With its superior energy-saving performance and lightweight design, it has become an industry benchmark. Auman Galaxy 5 is equipped with the Super Power Chain 5.0 and uses the exclusive ZF’s new generation transmission. The transmission efficiency is as high as 99.7%, and the comprehensive energy consumption is 5% more fuel-efficient than similar products in the industry, ranking among the top in the industry. Its widest gear ratio design endows the vehicle with super strong adaptability to working conditions. Whether on urban roads or in complex terrains, it can bring users a more efficient and economical operation experience.
In the field of pure electric heavy trucks, the carbon footprint of Auman Xingyi is 23.68gCO2e/tkm. With its remarkable advantages of being more environmentally friendly, having low costs, being lightweight, and having low energy consumption, it has become an outstanding model among new energy commercial vehicles. The peak power of Auman Xingyi reaches 600KW, and the comprehensive energy consumption is reduced by more than 15%. Its customized scenario control strategy makes the comprehensive working condition energy consumption of the whole vehicle lower than 1.2kwh/km, bringing users lower operation costs. In addition, Auman Xingyi supports the intelligent charging technology of 600A&VTV&battery, which greatly improves the charging efficiency and effectively solves the pain points of the cruising range and charging efficiency of pure electric heavy trucks, providing users with a more convenient use experience.
Foton Automobile has always regarded sustainable development as the core strategy of the enterprise. Through means such as technological innovation, process optimization, and material upgrading, it continuously reduces the carbon emissions of its products. This publicity not only demonstrates Foton Automobile’s strength and position in the field of green manufacturing but also sets a benchmark for the entire commercial vehicle industry. As more commercial vehicle enterprises join the ranks of carbon emission reduction, the overall carbon management ability of China’s automotive industry chain will be significantly improved, contributing to the realization of the national goals of carbon peak and carbon neutrality.

As an important source of carbon emissions in the transportation field, the green transformation of commercial vehicles is crucial for achieving the goal of carbon neutrality. Foton Automobile regards the new energy strategy as its first development strategy. Currently, it has nearly a thousand products, covering various technical routes such as pure electric, hydrogen fuel, and hybrid. At the “Brand Night” event on August 28th, 2024, Futian Automobile proposed to continue to accelerate the pace of new energy transformation. In the next three years, it will adhere to the three technical routes of “pure electric + hybrid + fuel cell” simultaneously. At the same time, it will also accelerate the layout of new energy core modules and key technologies, strengthen its independent research and self-production capabilities, and release the New Energy 30·50 Strategy, planning to achieve that the sales volume of new energy vehicles accounts for more than 50% by 2030.
Foton Automobile continuously increases its R&D investment in new energy technologies, promoting the development of products towards high efficiency, low carbon, and intelligence. It is reported that since 2003, the cumulative investment has exceeded 10 billion yuan, there are nearly 5,000 R&D personnel, and nearly 1,000 products have been laid out. Through continuous technological innovation and product upgrading, Foton Automobile not only provides users with more efficient and environmentally friendly solutions but also injects strong impetus into the sustainable development of the industry.
At the same time, Foton Carven Automobile’s global open-source new energy exclusive platform, adhering to the mission of “Making Every Kilometer Better”, has currently released the first VAN product, Love, and the heavy truck concept vehicle Beacon was unveiled at the meeting. In addition, Foton Automobile will also work hand in hand with industrial chain partners to jointly build a green ecological system and contribute to the realization of the “dual carbon” goal.
Foton Automobile’s obtaining the carbon footprint quantification label from the CPP platform this time has also injected strong impetus into promoting the green transformation of China’s commercial vehicle industry. In the future, Foton Automobile will continue to deepen the layout of the new energy strategy, accelerate the R&D and application of new energy technologies such as pure electricity and hydrogen energy, create more low-carbon and intelligent commercial vehicle products, and provide consumers with more new choices for green travel.
