Zoomlion Launches World's Largest 1,600-HP Hybrid Tractor 9DX at CIAME 2026(Nov 4)

Zoomlion Launches World's Largest 1,600-HP Hybrid Tractor 9DX at CIAME 2026

At the 2026 China International Agricultural Machinery Exhibition (CIAME 2026) held at the Tianjin National Exhibition and Convention Center, Zoomlion unveiled the 9DX, a hybrid tractor with a peak power output of 1,600 horsepower. This launch sets a new global record for tractor power output and represents a breakthrough in China's high-end agricultural equipment manufacturing capabilities.

Breaking Foreign Monopoly in Super-Large Tractors

The 9DX features a fully self-developed digital chassis and core control system, breaking the long-standing monopoly held by foreign brands in the super-large horsepower agricultural machinery sector. This achievement marks a significant step in China's push for technological self-sufficiency in high-end agricultural equipment. The tractor's commercialization and delivery demonstrate that domestic manufacturers can now compete at the highest end of the global agricultural machinery market.

Building a Multi-Category New Energy Product Matrix

The 9DX launch is part of Zoomlion's broader strategy in the new energy agricultural machinery sector. The company has progressed from launching its first 400-horsepower hybrid tractor to the 350-horsepower model being nominated for the European Tractor of the Year award, and now to the 1,600-horsepower 9DX. This progression demonstrates Zoomlion's commitment to building a multi-category, multi-technology-route high-end product matrix in the global new energy agricultural machinery market.

Second Growth Curve Gaining Momentum

According to Zoomlion's third-quarter report, the company's emerging business segments, including earthmoving machinery, mining machinery, agricultural machinery, and aerial work machinery, have achieved systematic progress in R&D, manufacturing, and market development. The mining machinery division showed parallel "technology breakthrough" and "global expansion" characteristics, with the company's proprietary ZM-i adaptive energy management technology achieving a measured 20% reduction in fuel consumption and 11.2% improvement in operational efficiency. Nearly 100 autonomous mining trucks are already operating at scale in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia.

The agricultural machinery division continues to advance under a dual-driven strategy of "smart agricultural machinery plus smart agriculture." The CCTV program "First Time" recently reported on Zoomlion's Yuelu Smart Farm, showcasing successful practices in using new technology to boost rice yields. Meanwhile, the earthmoving and aerial work machinery divisions have opened new market spaces both domestically and internationally, with the Hungarian factory for intelligent aerial work platforms officially opening in March as a key European production and service hub.
