On November 9, the first-ever 176-ton pure electric unmanned mining truck rolled off the production line in Shiyan, China. Designed for open-pit mining, the vehicle sets a new standard in heavy-load transportation by integrating a 1400 kW electric power system, a 2400 kWh battery pack, and cutting-edge autonomous driving using 5G and LiDAR. With the ability to charge from 10% to 90% in just 20 minutes, this truck drastically reduces operating costs compared to traditional diesel trucks, while offering eco-friendly and highly efficient operations. This breakthrough in the 150-200 ton segment, long dominated by foreign brands, marks a milestone in mining technology and supports the push for automation in hazardous work environments. Demonstration tests will soon take place in mining areas, paving the way for commercialization.
