Qingling Group conscientiously implements the series of important arrangements made by the Municipal Party Committee and Government for the reform and development of state-owned enterprises. In the construction of the "33618" modern manufacturing cluster system and the "416" scientific and technological innovation layout, it strengthens the linkage of the "three enterprises" and deepens the integration of the "four chains". On May 23, 2025, during the 7th Western China International Investment and Trade Fair, Qingling, together with CATL and its subsidiary Times New Safety Technology Company, launched a new milestone product - the new energy light truck Lingkun. With six breakthrough technologies, it redefines the value benchmark of new energy commercial vehicles, marking Qingling's first mover advantage in the new round of new energy product technology iteration competition.
Qingling Group, relying on 40 years of experience in vehicle manufacturing and world-class quality control standards, focuses on core challenges such as short range, high energy consumption, and insufficient reliability of new energy commercial vehicles, and has launched in-depth technical cooperation with Times New Safety. As a new energy system solution provider under Ningde Times, Times New An is based on its self-developed Kunshi chassis, covering Tianxing batteries, oil cooled flat wire motors, 7-in-1 domain controllers, and multi-source intelligent thermal temperature control technology. Both parties aim to achieve integrated improvement of chassis architecture and vehicle performance through collaborative optimization on the R&D end, with the goal of creating electric light trucks that are "low energy consumption, high efficiency, and high economy" for users.
As the latest achievement of Qingling Motors in promoting the integration of the "four chains", the new energy light truck Lingkun has six major technological breakthroughs. Ultra low wind resistance, adopting a streamlined cab with a drag coefficient of 0.33, leading over 26% of vehicles in the same class; Efficient power, equipped with a flat wire oil cooled motor, with a power density of 7.1kW/kg and a 20% reduction in energy consumption; Global intelligent control, using a 7-in-1 domain controller to comprehensively improve energy management, thermal management efficiency, and insulation performance; Scenario breakthrough, with a range of up to 500 kilometers, can meet the high-speed transportation needs between urban clusters such as Chengdu Chongqing, Beijing Tianjin Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, and Pearl River Delta, further solving pain points such as "range anxiety" and "cost pressure" in the industry, making new energy light trucks more competitive compared to fuel vehicles.
At the same time, the vehicle supports wide temperature range operation from minus 30 ℃ to 60 ℃, breaking through the limitations of climate conditions on vehicle applications; Ultra high efficiency, quickly replenishing 60% of energy in 15 minutes, doubling the charging efficiency; Large space, adopting a new configuration of high top sleeper, with the industry's largest standing passenger space. On this platform, Qingling plans to launch a full range of Lingkun products that meet e-commerce express delivery, supermarket delivery, less than truckload freight, cold chain logistics, fresh food delivery, and special operation scenarios.
