From Northwest Manufacturing to Overseas Markets: How New Energy Vehicles Are Racing Forward with 'Chain-Like Speed'
In recent years, from Europe to Central Asia, and from Southeast Asia to the Middle East, China's new energy vehicles have been continuously expanding into overseas markets. Behind the export of complete vehicles is not only the improvement in product competitiveness but also the collaborative participation of the entire industry chain, including power batteries, charging facilities, component manufacturing, and service systems. New energy vehicles are becoming a new business card for Made-in-China overseas. The 4th China International Supply Chain Promotion Expo (hereinafter referred to as the "Chain Expo"), held in Beijing from June 22 to 26, will provide a platform for global enterprises to cooperate within the industry. In the smart automotive chain exhibition area, Lanzhou Guangtong New Energy Vehicles Co., Ltd. will use models of new energy buses and pictorial displays to tell the story of the collaborative development of China's new energy vehicle industry chain.

From the Hexi Corridor to the heart of Central Asia, China's new energy vehicles are speeding toward a broader international market. As the only company in Gansu Province with a license to produce buses, Lanzhou Guangtong has long been focused on the new energy bus sector. Its products cover a range of areas, including pure electric buses, highway coaches, airport shuttles, logistics vehicles, and energy storage products, widely used in city public transport, intercity travel, and tourism transport. At the 4th Chain Expo, the company will mainly showcase two new energy bus models that have received EU whole vehicle certification and have already been delivered to Uzbekistan. For new energy vehicle companies, gaining recognition in the international market isn’t easy. From product R&D and vehicle manufacturing to certification testing and overseas operation services, every step tests the comprehensive strength of the company and its supply chain. EU whole vehicle certification is seen in the industry as an important 'pass' for entering the international high-end market, and the successful launch of the Uzbekistan project means that Chinese new energy vehicle products are increasingly gaining market recognition in countries involved in the Belt and Road Initiative.
In recent years, the demand for green transportation in Central Asia has been steadily growing, opening up new market opportunities for Chinese new energy vehicle companies. Lanzhou Guangtong's project in Uzbekistan not only showcases the competitive edge of Chinese new energy vehicles but also highlights the positive results of industry chain collaboration going global. Going global in the new energy vehicle industry chain isn't just about exporting products—it also brings technology, standards, and service systems to the international market. This is exactly one of the key topics focused on at the Chain Expo—using supply chain cooperation to achieve higher levels of open sharing and mutual benefits. From the banks of the Yellow River to the heart of Central Asia, a single new energy bus links the continuous development trajectory of China's new energy vehicle industry chain. At the 4th Chain Expo, Lanzhou Guangtong will showcase practical results of collaborative innovation and going-global strategies in China's new energy vehicle industry chain. Through this new energy bus heading overseas, people can not only see a new picture of how Made in China connects deeply with the global market, but also the vast potential that supply chain cooperation brings to industry development.
Car manufacturing is a systemic competition that spans R&D and design, core component production, energy supply, and operational services. The birth of a new energy bus connects multiple industry links, including power batteries, motor and electronic controls, charging equipment, and intelligent management systems, testing the coordination capabilities of the entire supply chain. At the 4th Chain Expo, Lanzhou Guangtong not only showcased its new energy buses for overseas markets but also focused on highlighting its cooperation with domestic companies in areas like power battery and charging equipment development. Through these collaboration cases, visitors can more intuitively see how upstream and downstream companies in the new energy vehicle industry chain achieve resource sharing, technology coordination, and complementary advantages, jointly driving product innovation and market expansion. In fact, as the new energy vehicle industry enters a stage of high-quality development, competition between companies is gradually evolving into competition between industry chains. Power battery companies provide stable and efficient energy support for vehicles, charging equipment companies continuously improve the infrastructure network, and vehicle manufacturers integrate products and optimize performance around application scenarios. Each link collaborates deeply, jointly building an industry ecosystem that covers R&D, manufacturing, applications, and services. This synergy is also becoming a key advantage for Chinese new energy vehicles to go global. From core component supply to complete vehicle export, from product delivery to support services, the Chinese new energy vehicle industry chain is gradually forming a new 'going global together' model. More and more Chinese companies are no longer competing internationally alone but are jointly exploring overseas markets through supply chain collaboration, continually enhancing the overall competitiveness of 'Made in China.' Through Lanzhou Guangtong's showcase, people see not just the development history of a new energy bus company, but also a vivid practice of collaborative innovation and development across the new energy vehicle industry chain. This is precisely the significance of the Chain Expo in building a cooperation platform and promoting the deep integration of industry and supply chains.
