On December 27, 2023, the "7th China Truck Customer Operation Survey Opinion Leader Award Ceremony" hosted by Friends of Trucks was successfully held in Beijing.
Experts and scholars from the industry, business representatives, dealer representatives, truck customer opinion leaders and industry mainstream leaders attended the event and witnessed the honorary moment of recommended models and brands recommended by opinion leaders.
Since its launch in 2017, the "China Truck Customer Operation Survey" has been held once a year, focusing on the actual operation of truck users, focusing on product performance and quality, as well as the value created for users, and truly reflecting the opinions and voices of the industry. Over the past 7 years, more than a dozen front-line reporters from the "Friends of Trucks" have traveled all over the country, visited and investigated cardholders, car owners, and logistics enterprise managers, and accumulated the real voices of tens of thousands of users. On this basis, this year's event with the theme of "Wealth Creation" has received strong support from many industry opinion leaders such as logistics companies, merchants, and self-employed car owners.
2023 is a year of economic recovery after the epidemic, but the logistics industry is still moving forward in difficulty, and industry pain points such as "difficult roads, difficult to find goods, low freight, and high oil prices" are still lingering in the hearts of users. Despite the difficulties, there are still opportunities in the predicament, and in 2023, natural gas** will go all the way down, and the hot gas vehicle market will bring vitality to the logistics industry. On the other hand, China is in the critical stage of meeting the "carbon peak", the requirements for energy conservation and emission reduction in all walks of life at all levels are becoming more and more stringent, and the development of the new energy market is in full swing.
The trend of green transformation in the heavy truck industry is obvious, and economic comfort has become the common demand of cardholders.
In 2023, the sales of both gas vehicles and new energy heavy trucks will show a substantial increase, and domestic mainstream heavy truck brands will be arrayed in this segment to compete in the Central Plains. Looking at a number of award-winning models of heavy trucks, it can be seen that gas products with more than 480 horsepower are popular with users, and the maximum 530 horsepower FAW Jiefang J7 classic version LNG tractor is one of the award-winning models, and it is foreseeable that the power of the leading products in the gas heavy truck market will be 480 horsepower to 600 horsepower as the mainstream.

Power is the basic demand of logistics users for transportation equipment, and economy is an important consideration for user choice. In the survey, "Friends of Trucks" found that whether it is a logistics company, a fleet or an individual car owner, they always pay attention to the fuel-saving and gas-saving effect of the vehicle, the efficient attendance efficiency, and the operating cost and income level of the whole life cycle. One of the key factors affecting the economy is the engine quality, this year's award-winning Shantaka G7S gas model is equipped with Weichai WP15NG gas engine, with 54The 16% ultra-high thermal efficiency leads the world, allowing users to obtain higher benefits in the same transportation scenario. The CA6SX1 natural gas engine of Jiefang Power, which won the Wealth Creation Brand Award for heavy-duty transportation, is also a power product with six advantages, including more efficient, stronger and more reliable.

It is worth noting that with the development of the economic level, more and more cardholders have higher and higher requirements for cab comfort, and commercial vehicle companies are paying more and more attention to the driver's driving experience while creating high-quality vehicle performance, and providing intelligent technical assistance to continuously improve the user experience through the optimization of the cab internal space. This year, the installation rate of Fast Zhixing AMT transmission in the LNG heavy truck market is more than half, which is a good verification of this view.

Fast hydraulic retarder has become the standard configuration recommended by many opinion leaders because of its excellent auxiliary safety performance.
Light trucks, lightweight, a multi-vehicle hexagonal warrior can be proud of the rivers and lakes.
With the relatively complex and diverse sources of goods of heavy truck owners, the orders undertaken by medium and light truck owners in the fields of commerce, green pass, urban distribution, cold chain, express delivery and other fields are also complex and changeable, which also puts forward a test for the comprehensive performance and adaptability of vehicles.

In short-distance urban distribution logistics, logistics and transportation work presents the characteristics of short distance, high frequency and high intensity, which leads to the increasing requirements of light truck users for the dynamics, economy and comfort of vehicles. Light trucks with stronger power, lower fuel consumption, more loading and comfortable driving have become "sweet and sweet" in the eyes of users. The products of Jiangling light truck, Dongfeng light vehicle, Omar, Xiangling and other enterprises have won a lot of money with their respective advantages in this award ceremony.
