Recently, Foton Motor held its Q1 2025 Business Conference and New Product Launch at the National Convention Center. At the launch event, the Auman Galaxy 3, which defines the future with technology and sets a new benchmark for all – domain intelligence, was officially released globally. This is another strategic product developed by Foton Auman based on the Galaxy intelligent architecture for the long – branch line and regional distribution and collection markets, following the Auman Galaxy 9, 7, 5, and T – series products.
Positioned as a regional logistics technology – enabled truck, the Foton Auman Galaxy 3 is based on the cornerstone of “technology – driven operation” and integrates the world’s top – notch technologies. With more than 50 industry – leading technologies, it has redefined the performance standards and operation models of the freight vehicle market, injecting new vitality into the logistics industry.
The exterior design of the Foton Auman Galaxy 3 draws inspiration from the “Stellarium Warship”, highlighting its sense of technology and the future. The vehicle’s front face adopts the minimalist design style of “Interstellar Shuttling”. The smooth lines are like those of a stellarium warship, simple yet sophisticated, echoing the globally – leading technology and intelligence of the Auman Galaxy 3, presenting the artistic conception of boundless starry rivers and future aesthetics.
The large – curved front windshield, combined with the smooth transition of the curved body and the sleek body surface treatment, helps to reduce the vehicle’s aerodynamic drag. According to Foton’s data, the drag coefficient of the Auman Galaxy 3 is only 0.413, leading the industry. This can significantly reduce the energy consumption during vehicle operation, transforming aerodynamics and aesthetics into quantifiable operational value. The punched holes on the front grille are rounded rectangles, echoing the decorative lines below the front windshield, looking neat and delicate, and further highlighting the sense of technology. Wherever it goes, it creates a visual feast.
The Foton Auman Galaxy 3 is available in three body colors: Night – Condensing Blue, Verdant Mountain Green, and Sea – Moon Blue, which are as picturesque as flowing starry rivers. The headlight design is sharp and vivid, with a chrome – plated decorative strip connecting the center, echoing the iconic front grille design of the Auman Galaxy family, just like a “glittering starry river”, achieving a high level of layering and a strong sense of technology.
In response to the “red – ocean” competition in the current long – branch line and regional distribution and collection markets, the Foton Auman Galaxy 3 brings several “trump cards” to break the situation. First of all, it has a high – efficiency, powerful, and industry – leading power output. The Auman Galaxy 3 is equipped with the new – generation Super Power Chain 5.0 and the Foton Cummins A7 – series engine. This engine is developed based on the global 7.0 platform, with a maximum output of 380 horsepower and a torque of up to 1400 N·m. The transmission matched with it is from ZF, with a transmission efficiency as high as 99.7%. The ultra – wide gear ratio range from 0.75 to 10.51 brings the vehicle excellent adaptability to different working conditions.
The performance of the Foton Cummins A7 – series engine equipped on the Auman Galaxy 3 has been greatly improved. Its transient response ability has increased by 30%, acceleration potential by 16%, climbing ability by 20%, and the engine braking power is as high as 180 Kw, comparable to a hydraulic retarder. Combined with the industry – unique intelligent torque control technology brought by the Super Power Chain 5.0, the power output of the Auman Galaxy 3 is more efficient, the power performance has increased by 17%, and the overall energy consumption has been reduced by 8%, achieving the lowest energy consumption in the industry.
Based on its solid hardware foundation, the Auman Galaxy 3 is further equipped with the “smartest brain” in the truck industry to achieve cost – reduction, fuel – savings, and technology – enabled consumption reduction. The vehicle is equipped with the most powerful VCU (Vehicle Control Unit) in its class, integrating 16 system modules, 26 intelligent control functions, and 28 energy – saving strategies. It can collect more than 3000 vehicle operation parameters in real – time and complete the optimal decision – making within milliseconds. Based on the Galaxy intelligent architecture, the Auman Galaxy 3 is equipped with vehicle – road – cloud integration technology, all – scenario AI optimization, and OTA rapid update technology. It can identify and self – learn road conditions in real – time, automatically optimize power, fuel consumption, and safety performance, creating an “intelligent truck that can think”. Combined with the industry’s longest – range predictive cruise system, it can comprehensively plan vehicle performance such as speed, gear, and braking, thereby improving transportation efficiency, reducing the driver’s burden, and achieving “multi – purpose” intelligent operation.
On the Auman Galaxy 3, Foton has also applied a wide range of lightweight measures to achieve reliable lightness and high – quality lightness, meeting the operation requirements of multiple working conditions. The vehicle is equipped with the industry – leading Galaxy lightweight technology. 42 new materials, 56 new processes, and 68 new technologies are applied to the vehicle body structure, greatly reducing the weight while ensuring reliability. Coupled with the extremely lightweight 598 kg of its exclusive Foton Cummins engine, the vehicle has a weight reduction of 200 kg, making it the lightest in the industry. Moreover, the Auman Galaxy 3 also uses the industry’s first – applied hydraulic expansion technology to process 8 types of components. While increasing the stiffness by 30%, it further reduces the weight by 15%, making it more lightweight and reliable.
For freight vehicle models, the comfort of drivers has always been overlooked. However, in the Foton Auman Galaxy 3, the vehicle takes the driver as the core and introduces the industry – leading Zhenxiang Cockpit. It adopts the industry’s widest 2350 – mm freight vehicle cab, which is the industry’s first 0 – height flat – floor freight vehicle cab, creating a spacious driving and riding space. The 900 – mm sleeper can be expanded to 1200 mm, and it is equipped with a rotating co – driver seat and a concierge armrest to create a mobile living space.
The cab of the Foton Auman Galaxy 3 is based on the innovative concept of a sterile – grade healthy ecological cabin. Through the PM2.5 filtration and negative – ion purification system, the content of harmful substances in the vehicle is 70% lower than the national standard, ensuring that the air in the vehicle is always comfortable. Based on the spacious cab space, the Auman Galaxy 3 has also designed more than 20 storage spaces in the vehicle, with a total volume of 806 liters, meeting diversified transportation needs and allowing various items to be carried.
Details like the original – factory mobile phone holder also reflect the “human – centered care” of the Auman Galaxy 3 cockpit.
Compared with traditional freight vehicles, the Galaxy 3 has achieved a qualitative leap in terms of power, fuel consumption, comfort, and intelligence. Its low – drag design, high – efficiency power chain, lightweight technology, and intelligent operation capabilities not only greatly reduce operating costs but also significantly improve transportation efficiency and the driver’s working experience. Empowering logistics with technology and driving the future with intelligence, the Auman Galaxy 3 brings users a full – chain value loop from “cost – reduction and efficiency – improvement” to “intelligent operation”, helping users in long – branch lines and regional distribution and collection scenarios such as express delivery, green – channel transportation, cold – chain logistics, and urban distribution to achieve higher benefits and opening a new era of intelligent logistics.
