The "CP" in the Light Truck Circle: Foton Aoling and FOTON Cummins Launch the Third Technological Resonance
In the history of the development of China's commercial vehicles, few combinations can be regarded as a model of technological symbiosis and market win-win like Foton Aoling and FOTON Cummins. Over the past 14 years, this "CP in the light truck circle" has reshaped the industry landscape through technological resonance and written the evolutionary history of China's light trucks with the gene of "one-million-kilometer quality".
In April 2025, the Aoling Speedy Transportation family equipped with the F-series power of the third-generation light-duty technology platform of FOTON Cummins officially made its debut. This is not only a milestone in the cooperation between Foton Aoling and FOTON Cummins, but also the best illustration of the upward breakthrough of Chinese manufacturing.
Three Iterations, One Million Reputations: A Microcosm of the Evolution History of Light Trucks
The Aoling Speedy Transportation equipped with FOTON Cummins power has always been the "white moonlight" in the hearts of truck drivers. Its extremely high reliability has created a large number of users with one million kilometers of driving experience, and also earned the Aoling Speedy Transportation the reputation of "running fast and never breaking down".
In 2010, the Aoling CTX first introduced the first-generation FOTON Cummins power into the light truck field, subverting the traditional diesel engine technology route and officially kicking off the legendary journey of Aoling. In 2016, the Aoling CTS equipped with the second-generation FOTON Cummins power, through the precise matching of the powertrain, helped China's logistics industry step into a new era of efficient transportation. Now, the third-generation FOTON Cummins power has been integrated with the Aoling Speedy Transportation once again. With three technological iterations, the reputations of one million users, and a full-scenario product matrix, it has redefined the standards of high-end light trucks.
Speedy Transportation Upgrades Its "Core": Born for the Fourth-stage Fuel Consumption Standard
The Aoling Speedy Transportation equipped with the third-generation FOTON Cummins power includes six main models, namely the Golden Aoling, Aoling Yutu III, Aoling Polar Bear, Aoling Speedy Transportation Pro, Aoling CTV, and Aoling A6, all of which meet the fourth-stage fuel consumption standard. Thanks to the optimization of the engine in many aspects such as air intake, supercharging, atomization, and cylinder bore, the fuel efficiency of the engine has been improved by 8%, and the overall fuel saving of the vehicle is 15%.
While saving fuel, the power performance has also been significantly improved. The FOTON Cummins F2.5 power installed in the light truck has a horsepower range of 131 to 185, representing a 22% increase compared to the previous generation of power. The FOTON Cummins F3.0 power specially designed for refrigerated trucks has a horsepower range of 150 to 210, with a maximum torque of 650, which is a 44% increase compared to the previous generation of power. It can precisely meet the needs of all scenarios such as express delivery, cold chain transportation, green channel transportation, bulk cargo transportation, and municipal engineering projects.
Quarterly Work Summary Report
With the comprehensive "core" upgrade of the Aoling Speedy Transportation, the vehicle's own performance has been further enhanced. Especially for industry benchmark models such as the Golden Aoling and the Aoling Polar Bear, they are striving to surpass past glories and take on new challenges in professional fields.
The Golden Aoling, a high-end light truck once renowned for its "Ten Black Technologies", was once hailed as the "ceiling of light trucks". The upgraded Golden Aoling not only is equipped with the new FOTON Cummins F2.5 power, but also comes with a series of long-life components, such as a rear axle that requires no maintenance for 300,000 kilometers, a long-life clutch with a service life of 200,000 kilometers, long-life tires with a service life of 200,000 kilometers, etc. At the same time, the anti-corrosion performance of the chassis has been doubled, and the overall reliability of the vehicle has been increased by 30%, making it a new benchmark for "high-efficiency and full attendance" light trucks.
The Aoling Polar Bear has successfully completed the service and support work for major events such as the top-level ice and snow event in Beijing and the Chengdu Universiade, and has escorted giant pandas living overseas to the Beijing and Shanghai zoos twice. The newly upgraded Aoling Polar Bear is equipped with the new FOTON Cummins F3.0 power, a 214mm straight-through beam, matched with a 6T rear axle, and is also equipped with super-wear-resistant tires, significantly improving its load-bearing capacity.
Fourteen years of technological resonance and three rounds of iterative innovation. The combination of the Aoling Speedy Transportation family and the third-generation FOTON Cummins power is not only an upgrade in performance, but also a reinterpretation of logistics efficiency and user experience. In the wave of the light truck industry moving towards high-end development, this "CP" is using technological innovation as the engine to drive modern logistics towards a more efficient and intelligent future.
