Nanjing AE System released the latest generation of steering electric power steering system AE6500, which brings higher safety and better comfort to heavy-duty trucks and commercial vehicles. The system not only saves fuel consumption, but also has advanced functions such as lane-keeping assist, side wind compensation, and trailer assist.
European Market Strategic Planning
At the IAA exhibition in Hannover, Germany in September, Nanjing AE system plans to introduce the most advanced steering electric power assist system for commercial vehicles to Europe. This latest electric drive solution for light, medium, and heavy vehicles is an integrated and modular electric drive system that can help the automotive industry move towards a more sustainable future. AEAUTO plans to sell its products throughout Europe in 2025.
Assisting in the Transformation of Heavy-Duty Trucks
Our latest EPS system allows larger vehicles such as heavy-duty trucks to switch from hydraulic power steering (HPS) to EPS. This way, the unique steering feel of heavy-duty truck brands is retained while the advanced safety, comfort and fuel economy of EPS are obtained.
Market Status and Opportunities
Currently, most of the heavy-duty truck and light commercial vehicle markets still use HPS systems. However, steering electric power assist system provides OEMs with an opportunity to stand out in the fierce market competition, attract consumers’ attention, and increase their product loyalty.
Technological Breakthroughs and Applications
Electric steering systems can also be used in heavy trucks. A few years ago, achieving a 24 kN steering load based on a 12-volt electric system was considered impossible. Today, AEAUTO EPS has been successfully used in heavy trucks and commercial vehicles.
Continuous Innovation and Looking Forward to the Future
Customers are under tremendous pressure to implement zero-emission technology, and the AE6500 is a technology we are proud of. We never rest on our laurels and always insist on developing and continuously improving EPS products, hoping to bring more benefits to OEMs and drivers, realize the implementation of the electrification transformation strategy, and meet the demand for one-stop solutions.
