The partnership combines MINIEYE's mature L4 autonomous driving technology, New Gonow Auto's vehicle manufacturing capabilities, and Beijing Logistics' extensive urban delivery network. The initiative aims to accelerate large-scale commercialization of driverless delivery solutions while establishing new standards for safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in last-mile logistics.
MINIEYE contributes its proven autonomous driving stack and the "Xiaozhu" driverless van, which features multi-sensor fusion, five-layer safety redundancy, and full automotive-grade design. The vehicle is engineered for all-weather operation and continuous performance improvement through accumulated driving data, addressing traditional challenges in reliability and operating costs.
New Gonow Group operates five intelligent manufacturing bases globally and supplies recreational vehicles and new-energy commercial vehicles to multiple international markets. Beijing Logistics provides established operational infrastructure across major Chinese cities. Together, the partners are creating an integrated ecosystem that covers research and development, mass production, fleet management, and end-to-end service delivery.
The collaboration reflects growing industry confidence in autonomous technology as a key driver for reducing logistics expenses and expanding urban delivery capacity. The 800-vehicle program is designed to establish a scalable commercial model that can be expanded domestically and potentially introduced to international markets.
MINIEYE's Xiaozhu vans are already in active service in high-density areas such as Shenzhen’s Huaqiangbei district, demonstrating robust performance in complex real-world conditions. The new partnership will significantly broaden deployment scale and further strengthen the operational framework for driverless logistics solutions.
By integrating advanced autonomous systems with established manufacturing and logistics resources, the three companies aim to deliver competitive, high-volume autonomous delivery vehicles that meet evolving market requirements for efficiency, safety, and sustainability.
