Weichai's high-end marine power has been deeply cultivating the Southeast Asian maritime market

MANILA, Philippines, July 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In the booming maritime market of Southeast Asia, Weichai has won widespread recognition in the Philippine and surrounding markets with its strong technical strength and innovation capabilities, demonstrating its firm determination and strong strength to deeply cultivate the maritime market in this region.

At the 2025 Philippine International Maritime & Ship Exhibition, Weichai made a grand debut with a series of high-end marine power products, attracting numerous professional visitors to stop and negotiate. Weichai's 12WH17 high-end medium-speed marine engine and 6F21 high-end boat engine are known as the "star products" in the Southeast Asian market.

The 12WH17 medium-speed marine engine inherits technical advantages such as "high-strength vermicular iron body, international top-grade components, and Weichai's independent ECU electronic control system". With a fuel injection pressure as high as 2,200 bar, it is specially designed for inshore transport ships, engineering vessels, and passenger-fishing boats. It has achieved another upgrade in reliability, energy efficiency, and intelligence, fully meeting the complex navigation needs of various ships.

The 6F21 high-end marine engine is adapted to the needs of high-end boats. Relying on Weichai's high-pressure common rail electronic control system, it not only achieves high-power output but also balances silent and environmental protection features, demonstrating industry-leading quality and setting a new power benchmark for the high-end yacht market.

In addition, as an important supporting product for marine engine maintenance, Weichai genuine marine engine oil can meet the high-standard requirements of engines for lubrication and reliability in extreme environments, helping customers achieve the benefit expectation of "longer service life after purchase". The complete product ecosystem provides users with all-round protection.

Relying on a product matrix with full-range coverage, wide applications, energy conservation and environmental protection, as well as an efficient service system, Weichai has built a "one-stop" marine power solution. This development model driven by dual wheels of technological innovation and service networks is accelerating its expansion in the Philippine and surrounding maritime markets. In the future, Weichai will continue to enhance its product promotion and localized operation capabilities, leverage its green and energy-saving advantages to assist the local shipbuilding industry in upgrading, inject high-quality, efficient and green sustainable power into the Southeast Asian shipbuilding industry, and further consolidate its leading position in the regional maritime market.

Weichai's high-end marine power has been deeply cultivating the Southeast Asian maritime market

BEIJING, Jan. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 29, the "Forging the Path to National Strength: China's Manufacturing Achievements Under the 14th Five-Year Plan," jointly organized by the National Museum of China and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, officially opened at the National Museum of China, showcasing more than 300 top national achievements. GAC's "National Outstanding Engineer Team" successfully developed both the Magazine Battery and the Solid-State Battery, which were selected for the exhibition.

The GAC Magazine Battery is the first battery system to pass both the nail penetration no-flame and non-ignition safety tests. By utilizing ultra-high intrinsic safety cells, an all-weather "vehicle-end + cloud-based" active safety monitoring system, and a multi-dimensional safety protection system, the Magazine Battery achieves three layers of protection: core, active, and passive. Its safety performance far exceeds the electric vehicles traction battery safety requirements (GB38031-2025), which will take effect on July 1, 2026. Currently, the Magazine Battery has a cumulative deployment of 1.3 million vehicles with zero spontaneous combustion and over 50 billion kilometers of safe travel, providing users with robust safety assurance for every journey.

GAC's self-developed large-capacity solid-state battery has achieved an energy density exceeding 400 Wh/kg and easily passes rigorous safety tests such as 200°C thermal chamber and nail penetration tests, effectively addressing users' range anxiety and safety concerns. Innovations in materials and processes have placed the solid-state battery at the forefront of the industry in key indicators such as safety, energy density, and cycle life, providing a superior power solution for the future development of NEVs. Currently, a pilot production line for GAC's solid-state battery has been established, capable of mass-producing vehicle-grade solid-state batteries over 60 Ah, marking a critical step toward the goal of full vehicle integration by 2026.

Over the years, GAC has been steadily enhancing its competitiveness through innovations across intelligent connectivity, NEV powertrains technologies, and forward-looking technologies. Looking ahead, GAC will continue to deepen its efforts in the intelligent connected NEV field, leveraging more leading technological achievements to drive industry progress.
