It is expected that the annual export sales of heavy-duty trucks will exceed 150,000 units, further consolidating its leading position in China’s heavy-duty truck export industry.
At the critical stage of the global commercial vehicle industry’s development, Sinotruk has demonstrated a strong determination for development and a clear strategic direction.

The next five years will be a critical opportunity period for Sinotruk to achieve higher-quality development together with its partners. Based on in-depth insights into the global market, Sinotruk has taken “international transformation” as the core fulcrum of its development. It plans that by 2030, it will export 250,000 heavy-duty trucks, 100,000 light-duty trucks, 50,000 light vehicles, and 3,000 mining trucks, with an overseas after-sales market revenue target of 1 billion US dollars. To ensure the smooth achievement of these goals, Sinotruk will work with partners to achieve breakthrough upgrades in the full range of products, win-win upgrades throughout the life cycle, and all-round upgrades of the marketing system. By expanding the full range of commercial vehicle businesses, building a closer global cooperation ecosystem, and jointly deepening the after-sales market and the entire vehicle life cycle field, it will achieve win-win results across the entire value chain.
The conference awarded partners who won the 2025 “Best Service Award”, “Best Marketing Award”, and “Outstanding Contribution Award”, and presented them with Sinotruk Bosheng Pickup S-series products. The pickup prizes, mainly in red and white, were neatly lined up at the entrance of the exhibition hall, quickly attracting global partners to stop and watch, with constant praise.
