Beijing (Gasgoo)- Windrose Technology, a Chinese new-energy heavy-duty truck startup, recently showcased real-world testing data for its long-range all-electric trucks at the Green Transition Summit in Copenhagen, Denmark, according to the company's WeChat post on Feb. 20.

The event, attended by global logistics giants DSV and Maersk, highlighted Windrose's historic achievement: the world's first publicly verified 500km+ journey by a zero-emission heavy-duty truck hauling a 64-ton double-trailer combination.  

During trials conducted over the past year, Windrose's electric trucks completed a 590km round trip between Copenhagen and Aarhus, Denmark's second-largest city, while carrying a full load of 64 tons. The vehicle demonstrated an actual single-charge range exceeding 500km, setting a global benchmark for all-electric heavy-duty trucks operating with dual trailers under real-world conditions. This milestone marks the first time an all-electric truck has achieved such endurance and payload capacity on public roads.  

Founded in 2022, Windrose Technology is China's vertically integrated developer of intelligent, zero-emission heavy-duty trucks, offering bespoke solutions for global markets. The company's founder, Han Wen, a Stanford University graduate and former CSO and CFO at autonomous trucking firm Plus, brings expertise from prior roles at Bridgewater Associates and GSR Ventures.
