Recently, Zhuoyu Technology held a commercial vehicle technology launch event in Zhuhai, unveiling its commercial vehicle intelligent assisted driving solution called 'Zhuoyu Panxing,' while also disclosing progress in heavy truck, bus, light truck, and globalization businesses.

Building on its passenger vehicle business, Zhuoyu Technology has migrated its mature 'Chengxing' autonomous driving capabilities to commercial vehicle scenarios, forming the Panxing solution. Panxing comes in two versions: PDS 4 and PDS 5. PDS 4 is equipped with a high-capability large model, focuses on highway NOA (Navigate on Autopilot), and is suited for long-haul heavy truck logistics, having already entered mass production and delivery. PDS 5 is based on a native multimodal foundation model, adds urban NOA capability, and targets urban scenarios such as buses and light trucks.

Currently, Panxing has established partnerships with six leading domestic heavy truck brands, covering XCMG Automotive, Shaanxi Automobile Group, SINOTRUK, FAW Jiefang, Foton Motor, and Dongfeng Commercial Vehicles. According to relevant data, these six companies collectively account for over 93% of the domestic heavy truck market share. The Shaanxi Delong X5000 equipped with the solution has been deployed in batch operations for YTO Express long-haul routes, with highway NOA usage rates continuously rising. Multiple designated models from XCMG, SINOTRUK, and Jiefang will also be delivered successively within the year.

Meanwhile, Zhuoyu is also expanding into bus, light truck, and ROBOVAN scenarios with partners such as Yutong Bus and BAIC Foton, and jointly laying out overseas markets with clients.

Shen Shaojie, CEO of Zhuoyu Technology, stated that the difficulty of deploying autonomous driving in commercial vehicles far exceeds that of passenger vehicles. A fully loaded heavy truck can weigh up to 40 tons, presenting challenges such as long braking distances, large center-of-gravity fluctuations, and minimal room for control error. Zhuoyu has adopted a pathway of 'unified foundation, scenario enhancement, engineering adaptation,' reusing the passenger vehicle model foundation, adding heavy truck-specific data enhancement, and then achieving adaptation through dynamics, perception, and safety system engineering, enabling a single AI brain to adapt to different carriers.

According to reports, this solution is the industry's first mass-produced end-to-end large model for heavy trucks.
