In the future, Fukuda will also comprehensively carry out lightweight cooperation with Weiqiao in cargo compartments, frames, transmission shafts, etc., in order to "reduce weight and improve efficiency" to jointly open up the next target market of 100,000 vehicles and help the new energy transformation of commercial vehicles.

In his speech, Song Yongxiang, on behalf of the Binzhou Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and the people's Government of Binzhou City, welcomed all the guests and friends and extended warm congratulations on the offline launch of the first all-aluminum car body. He said that Binzhou is born of aluminum, prosperous because of aluminum, and strong because of aluminum. Binzhou is famous all over the country and all over the world. "Aluminum" is light and heavy, and the all-aluminum body is light, but it is of great significance. The all-aluminum body, which will be put off the line and will be produced in batches, marks the full chain operation of Weiqiao lightweight base, which is a realistic proof of the transformation from "pioneering Weiqiao" to "technological Weiqiao", and has broken through more than 10 key technologies of "sticking neck". It is a fruitful achievement in the construction of industry-education integration and industrial innovation-oriented "dual" cities, and is a great contribution to the national and even global automobile industry. "Aluminum" to achieve good results, from the light weight of the car off the line, we can see the effectiveness of the development of Binzhou aluminum industry. Binzhou is prosperous because of aluminum, and the aluminum industry is the core industry of Binzhou, which has created many first in the country and the most in the world, and is the "world high-end aluminum industry base" supported by the national strategy and the key layout of the whole province.
