Foton Bets on Battery Trucks as Light-Duty Electrification Accelerates — Hydrogen and Hybrids on the Side

Foton Motor is prioritising pure battery-electric light trucks while keeping hybrid and hydrogen fuel-cell variants in its portfolio. The firm expects rapid growth — CAAM projects about 58,000 pure-electric light trucks in 2025 for Foton, up roughly 79% year-on-year — reflecting broader electrification trends in China’s urban and regional freight sectors.
