Galaxus: Redefining heavy-duty trucks
The Galaxus platform offers multi-energy solutions — including fuel, electric, hydrogen, gas, and hybrid — built on eight core values.
It features a dedicated new energy architecture with over 90 self-developed technologies.
Key highlights include an electric drive system with 97.5% max efficiency, megawatt-level charging, and a 7% overall energy efficiency improvement.
Its intelligent driving system, validated over two million km, supports evolution from L2 to L4 autonomy. The Galaxus lineup, including the R9, R5, and D3 models, is tailored for diverse logistics scenarios like long-haul and express delivery.
Daystar: Future of electric light trucks
Addressing urban logistics, Foton unveiled its first pure electric light truck platform, Daystar.
Developed from deep user insights, it tackles core challenges like charging difficulty and high TCO (total cost of ownership).
The platform introduces an 800V high-voltage architecture, silicon carbide controllers, and oil-cooled motors, achieving a 20% overall energy efficiency improvement.
It also features a passenger-car-inspired cabin, full-vehicle OTA (over-the-air) updates, and has undergone over six million km of testing for superior reliability.
Last-mile and van innovations
For last-mile logistics, Foton launched the next-generation mini truck, Wonder Plus.
It offers exceptional payload capacity, the longest and widest cargo bed in its class, and a double wishbone suspension for enhanced comfort and handling.
Furthermore, Foton introduced the world's first exclusive new energy Van platform, Cavan C1.
Focusing on global standards and pure electric design, it features a self-developed high-safety battery, a peak drive efficiency of over 93.5%, and supports 2.2C fast charging for 100km of range in 10 minutes.
