Key highlights include an efficient electric drive system with a maximum efficiency of 97.5%, supporting megawatt-level charging, with a 30%-80% state of charge (SOC) in just 18 minutes. Overall energy efficiency has been improved by 7%. The intelligent thermal management system reduces low-temperature energy consumption by 34%, while the fuel/gas platform, through VCU domain control and the Super Powertrain 5.0, achieves a 5% reduction in both fuel and gas consumption. Additionally, the platform's transmission efficiency reaches an impressive 99.7%. In the field of intelligence, the GALAXUS platform is equipped with an intelligent driving system that has been validated over 2 million kilometers, offering more than 28 features and supporting gradual evolution from L2 to L4 autonomy. The smart cockpit integrates over 800 experience features and more than 500 information security protections, delivering a 'technologically crafted' interactive experience. In terms of safety, the vehicle body adopts a shield structure, with 69% high-strength steel, combined with health-conscious materials and advanced anti-corrosion technologies, creating a comprehensive protective system.

The DAYSTAR platform achieves a comprehensive breakthrough in design, comfort, energy efficiency, power, intelligence, safety, and reliability. It redefines the driver's space with a passenger-car-inspired design, offering the industry's widest cabin, a 'lie-flat' resting feature, an ultra-low 470mm step, and optimized standing space, completely eliminating any sense of confinement. In terms of energy efficiency, the platform introduces cutting-edge technologies such as the industry-first 800V high-voltage platform, a central dual-motor distributed architecture, silicon carbide integrated controllers, and oil-cooled flat-wire motors. Combined with extreme lightweight construction and low wind resistance design, these innovations result in a groundbreaking 20% improvement in overall energy efficiency. On the intelligence front, the DAYSTAR platform features an integrated vehicle control architecture that supports full vehicle OTA updates. The industry-first FBS line-controlled braking system reduces braking distance by 15.5%. Additionally, the platform has undergone over 6 million kilometers of rigorous testing, with the vehicle body constructed using high-strength steel and a 'shield' structure. The battery has passed five-dimensional extreme safety tests, ensuring exceptional reliability. Last-Mile Logistics: Efficiency Upgrade In response to the evolving demands of last-mile logistics, FOTON Motor has launched a new generation of mini trucks, further enhancing its product portfolio across all logistics scenarios. At the conference, FOTON Motor officially unveiled the Wonder Plus, its next-generation mini truck, to the global market. This product is designed to address the upgrading needs of the urban distribution logistics market, with 'super configuration' as its core concept. It aims to solve key challenges such as efficiency bottlenecks, operational costs, and diverse transportation scenarios, marking a strategic step for FOTON Motor in the field of new energy smart logistics.

On the product level, the CAVAN C1 boasts exceptional space utilization and offers multiple size options to cater to various needs. With a turning radius of just 5.75 meters, it matches the maneuverability of passenger cars, providing agile handling. In terms of safety and quality, the CAVAN C1 adheres to global standards and has undergone over 8.5 million kilometers of rigorous testing, ensuring outstanding reliability.
