2025 CCVS | “Qiankun” High-End Brand Debuts! Powerful Pure Electric Product Matrix – A Look at Dongfeng Light Vehicles’ Exhibits

On November 10, China’s only national-level commercial vehicle exhibition – the 2025 China International Commercial Vehicle Show (CCVS, also known as the Wuhan Auto Show) – grandly opened at the Wuhan International Expo Center. Currently, the waves of electrification, intelligence, greenization, and internationalization are profoundly reshaping the transformation of the commercial vehicle industry. With the theme of “High-end, Intelligent, Green”, this exhibition aligns perfectly with the core of this trend.

Facing this profound industrial transformation, Dongfeng Light Vehicles has taken the lead with the technical strength and strategic responsibility of a seasoned central enterprise. On the first day of the show, Dongfeng Light Vehicles took the initiative to hold a press conference themed “Riding the Wind, Shaping the Future”, releasing new products, a new strategy, and a new brand. So, what changes will this conference bring to Dongfeng Light Vehicles? Next, let’s explore through its products and strategy.

In urban logistics scenarios, pure electric VANs have become the absolute mainstream. At this auto show, Dongfeng Light Vehicles brought the Ruilida V8E pure electric VAN. Boasting advantages of long range, rear-wheel drive, and large space, the Dongfeng Ruilida V8E is the only rear-wheel drive model among its peers. With a loading space of approximately 8 cubic meters, an internal length exceeding 3 meters, and a cargo platform height as low as 615mm, it solidifies its core competitiveness of “large capacity, high profitability, and cost savings”, making it a new-generation “urban distribution artifact”.

The Dongfeng Ruilida V8E adopts a simple and sleek body structure design, which helps reduce wind resistance while creating a modern appearance that seamlessly integrates with urban landscapes. Depending on the configuration, the vehicle offers two battery options: 50.48kWh Fudi battery and 53.58kWh CATL battery, delivering reliable range performance. Paired with a 110kW permanent magnet synchronous motor and rear-wheel drive, it boasts excellent power output, making it an ideal choice for “last-mile” delivery.

At the exhibition site, Dongfeng Light Vehicles also presented the Tuyi T9E model. As a new energy small truck targeting urban and urban-rural logistics, it is equipped with a maximum 81kWh lithium iron phosphate battery from CATL, a 110kW flat-wire motor, supports fast charging, and offers an optional 3-ton class rear axle with leading load capacity in its class. Combined with electronic control energy recovery and low rolling resistance tires, it achieves high range and low power consumption. Additionally, its large body size provides truck drivers with a green transportation solution that is “high-load, high-efficiency, cost-effective, and worry-free”.

Dongfeng also brought two Dolika D6E pure electric light trucks to the show. Despite sharing the same model name, they are available in wide-body and medium-body versions, as well as general-purpose and heavy-load variants, compatible with various superstructures such as van bodies, stake bodies, flatbeds, and refrigerated bodies. Dongfeng Light Vehicles can provide green zero-emission solutions for different industries, application fields, and operating conditions.

At the exhibition, Duan Renmin, General Manager of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., released Dongfeng’s high-end light truck brand: Dongfeng Qiankun. The birth of this new brand marks the “first step of a thousand miles” for Dongfeng Light Vehicles towards high-endization. Since its inception, the Dongfeng Qiankun brand has undertaken a dual mission: to pursue ultimate efficiency like “Heaven is vigorous in movement”, and to bear every trust with a broad and benevolent mind like “Earth is receptive in virtue”. “Delivering delicacies worldwide, letting drivers enjoy the journey” is the core embodiment of the Dongfeng Qiankun brand’s mission.

Aspiring to become the “pioneer of high-efficiency fresh food transportation in China”, Dongfeng Qiankun will deepen its presence in the cold chain and green transportation sectors, safeguarding the “daily life” and “three meals a day” of Chinese families. Along with the launch of the new high-end brand, Dongfeng Light Vehicles also brought Qiankun’s first new product: the Qiankun K6. Equipped with Dongfeng Cummins’ new-generation engine and a 2000Bar ultra-high pressure common rail system, this model meets Phase IV fuel consumption standards, ensuring full combustion of every drop of fuel and delivering powerful power output. Matched with a new Fast gearbox and Dana 6-ton high-load-bearing rear axle, it redefines “heavy load, high speed, and worry-free whole journey” for fresh food transportation! Supported by this power system, the Qiankun K6 has undergone rigorous tests on typical green transportation and cold chain routes, achieving a 10% lower fuel consumption than competitors and direct annual fuel cost savings of over 5,400 yuan.

At the scene, Dongfeng announced the price of the Qiankun K6: the green transportation stake truck version starts at 114,500 yuan, and the cold chain refrigerated truck version starts at 139,500 yuan. Meanwhile, Dongfeng launched five generous car purchase benefits, demonstrating full sincerity.

Next to the Qiankun K6, Dongfeng Light Vehicles also presented the all-new Dongfeng Dolika D6 model. Optimized and innovated based on the classic product, it can be called a “King’s Return”. The all-new Dongfeng Dolika D6 is equipped with a Nissan global engine, and combined with the vehicle’s power matching, it achieves fuel savings of up to 1.4 liters per 100 kilometers, with a peak power exceeding competitors by 10%. It offers both extremely low fuel consumption and strong power. Targeting typical working conditions such as supermarket and express delivery, the all-new Dongfeng Dolika D6 is sure to “live up to its mission”!

As a leading central enterprise in the industry, Dongfeng Light Vehicles has not chosen to stand still but has undergone significant innovation to face future challenges. At this year’s Wuhan Auto Show, we can not only see a variety of cutting-edge new products brought by Dongfeng Light Vehicles but also get a glimpse of its future strategy. Today, high-endization, greenization, and intelligence have been integrated into Dongfeng Light Vehicles’ “DNA”. It is believed that in the future, Dongfeng Light Vehicles will continue to rely on technological leadership to upgrade from “meeting demand” to “defining value”, and continuously empower the development of the light commercial vehicle industry!
