Xingma Group will develop construction machinery related to heavy trucks
Xingma Group Chairman Liu Hanru addressed the Xingma Production Planning Conference, where he analyzed the current market conditions and expressed confidence in a potential recovery in the coming year. He urged sales and service teams to actively expand the market share of traditional products such as bulk cement trucks and concrete mixer trucks. Additionally, he emphasized the need to accelerate the promotion of well-established, market-tested products that hold industry advantages—specifically the Xingma pump truck and truck crane. Liu highlighted that the company’s next focus will be on construction machinery products related to heavy trucks. By leveraging Hualing Heavy Trucks’ chassis expertise and Xingma’s long-standing top-loading production experience, the company aims to gain a stronger foothold in the construction machinery sector. This strategy is intended to broaden the product chain, reduce risk, and enhance overall competitiveness.
This situation reminds me of recent news reports about XCMG's growing interest in heavy trucks. For years, rumors have circulated that XCMG is moving forward with plans to enter the heavy truck market, and now it seems like this is no longer just speculation.
On July 10, XCMG Technology announced that it had signed an "Intent for Equity Transfer" agreement with Jiangsu Chunlan Auto Co., Ltd., a shareholder of Nanjing Chunlan Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd., on July 7. The deal involves purchasing 60% of Chunlan Auto’s equity from Jiangsu Chunlan at a price of 270 million yuan.
XCMG believes that by acquiring heavy truck capabilities, the company can create a more comprehensive product range, which would support the sale of its construction machinery. Furthermore, entering the heavy truck sector could improve the overall quality and performance of its engineering equipment, bringing positive effects to the company.
After acquiring Chunlan Auto, XCMG plans to use it as a platform to expand its product line and enter the heavy truck industry at a relatively low cost. This move allows the company to seize the current favorable market conditions and create new sources of profit.
This strategic alignment between the heavy truck and construction machinery industries is becoming increasingly common. Industry experts believe that XCMG’s acquisition will help showcase its existing strengths in construction machinery, including product design, spare parts, and marketing channels. This could lead to the formation of industrial clusters and drive the production of other related engineering machinery products, positioning XCMG as a core player in large-scale machinery manufacturing.
Internationally, companies like Volvo have long integrated heavy trucks with construction machinery, focusing on aspects such as vehicle compatibility, handling, comfort, and safety. Their zero-component technology is often ahead of construction machinery products. Therefore, entering the automotive industry could significantly elevate the overall level of XCMG’s engineering machinery.
According to media reports, a key goal of XCMG’s acquisition of Chunlan Trucks is to align with the Volvo Group and achieve mutual growth in both truck and construction machinery businesses. While this goal may be challenging, China has already seen successful examples, such as Anhui Xingma and Hualing Heavy Trucks. Xingma started by producing special vehicles and later established a subsidiary of Hualing Heavy Truck in 2003, introducing Japanese Mitsubishi technology to produce heavy truck chassis. Initially, Hualing provided special chassis for Xingma, but over time, Hualing-branded heavy trucks gained recognition in the market and eventually carved out their own niche.
XCMG’s subsidiary, Xu Jian, has significant production capacity for construction machinery and special vehicles. Although the peak growth period for heavy trucks has passed, a well-planned strategy could still make this a viable option.
The technological edge in heavy truck manufacturing and parts production is widely acknowledged. If true, this synergy could maximize the benefits of Xingma and Hualing’s equipment and technology, while also generating substantial economic gains in areas such as production scheduling, raw material utilization, and waste management. With Xingma’s long-term market influence and customer base, expanding into the construction machinery sector through brand extension appears to be a smart and achievable move.
