From November 8 to 10, 2024, the 14th China (Macao) International Automobile Exposition successfully took place in Macao. Zhongtong Bus showcased three premium models—H12, N10, and V7—offering solutions for urban public transport, tourism groups, shuttle services, and other application scenarios in Macao and globally.

The Macao Auto Show, adhering to its positioning as a "brand, bridge, and opportunity," has become an important platform for open exchanges in the global automotive industry. Zhongtong Bus has participated in the show for four consecutive years, contributing to the construction of a "low-carbon Macao" and the global green transformation of transportation.

Innovation-Driven: Leading the Wave of Public Transportation Development with New Energy + Intelligence

China's new energy bus research and development started early, mastering core technologies and forming a unique industrial chain advantage and scale advantage through upstream and downstream supporting capabilities. These have provided strong confidence and impetus for new energy bus companies to venture overseas.

As one of the earliest enterprises in China to research and produce new energy buses, Zhongtong Bus boasts profound technological accumulation in this field due to continuous technological innovation. The Zhongtong N10 range-extender hybrid city bus, exhibited at the show, represents the company's technological prowess.

Compared to traditional diesel-powered buses, the N10 range-extender hybrid city bus can reduce tailpipe emissions by over 70%, demonstrating significant energy-saving and emission-reduction effects. Tailored to Macao's operational characteristics, the bus features a 2+2 seating layout, maximizing passenger capacity within its class through scientific space utilization. Additionally, it is equipped with body lifting and tilting functions to facilitate boarding for the elderly and children.

Furthermore, the N10 is equipped with an electronic braking system, driver assistance systems, and the Zhongtong Smart Connected Vehicle Platform, enabling operation monitoring, energy consumption management, and operational analysis. This enhances intelligence while meeting the demands for efficient and safe operations.

Since 2021, Zhongtong's range-extender hybrid buses, represented by the N10, have been delivered to Macao buses in a cumulative total of 400 units, accounting for over 80% of Macao's operating bus fleet. With their environmental protection, low carbon emissions, intelligence, and safety features, Zhongtong's N-series new energy city buses have not only become the mainstay of Macao's green public transportation services but have also been exported in batches to countries such as Portugal, Singapore, and Chile, leading the wave of green and efficient development in global public transportation.

Value-Led: Enabling High-Quality Development of Niche Scenarios through Customization and High-End Offerings

As a historical city that blends Eastern and Western cultures, Macao boasts rich tourism resources and is renowned worldwide for its leisure, sports, entertainment, and sightseeing industries. According to statistics, Macao welcomed over 28 million domestic and international tourists in 2023. The thriving tourism industry has imposed higher requirements on tourist transportation vehicles.

The debut of the Zhongtong H12 range-extender hybrid tourist coach caters to the high-quality demands of Macao's tourism market. It features ergonomic seats, comprehensively enhanced NVH performance, and is equipped with color-changing ambient lights and through-light strips for an upgraded and comfortable riding experience. Through lightweight design and efficient matching of the transmission system, the vehicle achieves performance upgrades, making it more energy-efficient. Moreover, the coach is equipped with safety and intelligent features such as tire pressure monitoring and alarm systems, driver assistance systems, and eco-driving prompt systems to ensure safe and efficient operations.

It's worth mentioning that Zhongtong's H-series hybrid buses are already operating in batches in Macao. Renowned for their energy efficiency, comfort, safety, and intelligence, they have received widespread praise from global tourists.

The V7 pure electric bus, with its cutting-edge design that integrates technology and fashion, stood out as an eye-catching highlight at the exhibition. Its agility, flexibility, and efficient operation make it ideal for feeder services, ferry transportation, and other scenarios.

The V7 is also equipped with multiple safety assistance systems, including lane departure warning, collision warning, driver fatigue monitoring, and dangerous driving behavior analysis and warning systems, significantly enhancing the vehicle's intelligence and providing a safer and more efficient mode of transportation.

Looking ahead, Zhongtong Bus will continue to intensify technological innovation, driving product refinement and iteration to provide better transportation solutions for society and serving the green development and value upgrade of global public transportation.
