SAG Commercial Vehicle

SAG Commercial Vehicle is a core complete vehicle subsidiary of Shaanxi Automobile Holding Group Co., Ltd., headquartered in the Caijiapo Economic and Technological Development Zone, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province. The company was founded in 1958 and was formerly known as Shaanxi Automobile Group Baoji Huashan Engineering Vehicle Co., Ltd. It was officially renamed in November 2018. As the only full-series commercial vehicle industrial base in Northwest China, it mainly manages over 200 models, including heavy trucks, medium and light trucks, new energy vehicles, and special vehicles.

Development History

In 1968, the Shaanxi Vehicle Manufacturing Plant was established in Qishan County, Baoji, and in 1970 the first Yan'an 250 heavy off-road vehicle was developed, ending China's history of having artillery but no vehicles. Since then, the company went through an expansion of export business and the introduction of Steyr technology, and developed independently after the heavy truck split in 2000.

The company was renamed in 2018 to establish an independent market positioning. In 2026, Liu Yi took over as Chairman of Shaanxi Auto Holdings, proposing the management concept of "One Shaanxi, Coordinated Action." In January of the same year, the SAG Commercial Vehicle 2026 Partner Conference was held in Baoji.

Product Portfolio

SAG Commercial Vehicle has formed three major brand lineages: DeLong, Zhiyun, and Yan'an, covering fuel, gas, and new energy full powertrain routes. In the heavy truck field, it offers the DeYu Q500 wide-body gas tractor and the Yan'an S700 gas tractor, with up to 630 horsepower. In the light truck segment, the DeLong G300 Pro flagship light truck is equipped with a Cummins D2.5N engine and a Fast Gear 2.0 8AMT transmission, paired with a 1.8m quiet luxury cabin, saving 28,000 RMB over 500,000 kilometers. In the new energy field, the Zhiyun S300 EXPRESS pure electric light truck is equipped with a 140 kW CATL battery and L2 assisted driving. The Zhiyun Kunshi battery-swapping light truck achieves ultra-fast battery swapping in 150 seconds.

By the end of the "15th Five-Year Plan," the company strives for vehicle sales to break through 50,000 units and output value to exceed 10 billion RMB.

Core Technologies

SAG Commercial Vehicle holds 555 patents and, relying on its Postdoctoral Research Station, has formed a three-vertical technology chain of pure electric as the main focus, hydrogen fuel as a demonstration, and hybrid as a reserve, along with a three-horizontal system of key components. The new energy Zhiyun series features optimized energy flow and integrated thermal management, with energy consumption 3% to 8% better than competitors. The Dechuang Future has cracked solid chassis, integrated thermal management, and other core technologies. In addition, Shaanxi Auto has achieved commercial deployment of L4 autonomous driving, and the range of its hydrogen fuel heavy trucks has exceeded 1,000 kilometers.

It will precisely implement a "One Country, One Vehicle" customization strategy.
