Huawei successfully hosted the 2025 DriveONE & Smart Charging Network Strategy and Product Launch, unveiling its new strategy titled “10 km Range per kWh for Every Vehicle Model and Advanced Motion Safety Features,” along with a cutting-edge megawatt charging solution. The event also featured a signing ceremony to establish a megawatt charging network for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs). Attendees included leading automakers, charge point operators (CPOs), industry partners, associations, and government bodies, all uniting to mark the debut of Huawei’s latest innovations and foster the development of a robust, high-quality industry ecosystem.
Hou Jinlong, Director of the Board of Huawei, President of Huawei Digital Power, delivered a speech titled “Driving Technological Innovation, Prioritizing Quality, Collaborating with the Ecosystem, and Accelerating Vehicle Electrification,” and interpreted the electric mobility strategy. Centered on “providing safe and comfortable driving experience for electric vehicles (EVs)” and “ensuring high-quality charging anywhere and making charging as fast as refueling,” Huawei Digital Power focuses on technologies and products, prioritizes quality, and coordinates on-board and off-board systems to accelerate vehicle electrification.
Hou Jinlong highlighted that Huawei Digital Power places a strong emphasis on quality and collaborates closely with customers and partners to foster a mutually beneficial ecosystem. He noted that by leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as all-scenario grid forming and the integration of PV, energy storage systems (ESS), and chargers, the company is accelerating the high-quality development of the energy industry.
At the event, Wang Chao, President of the eMobility Product Line at Huawei Digital Power, delivered a keynote address titled “10 km Range per kWh for Every Vehicle Model and Advanced Motion Safety Features,” where he outlined the latest developments and strategic direction of Huawei DriveONE in terms of energy efficiency and motion domain control.
Wang emphasized that high-range efficiency is a crucial metric for assessing vehicle quality. He explained the evolution of range efficiency in three distinct phases. In the initial phase (1.0), improvements were driven by isolated technological innovations and increased battery capacities. The second phase (2.0) focused on enhancing the various factors influencing driving range, resulting in greater overall energy efficiency. Looking ahead to phase 3.0, the goal is to achieve a benchmark of 10 km per kWh, enabling electric vehicles (EVs) to match traditional fuel vehicles in both range and charging speed—providing users with a charging experience comparable to refueling.
Wang outlined the evolution of Huawei DriveONE’s motion domain across three safety-focused phases: instinctive safety, redundancy safety, and all-domain safety. Initial improvements came from electrification and distributed control, followed by enhanced safety through redundant components and faster response times. The upcoming phase introduces a unified vehicle control architecture to revolutionize traditional handling. He also highlighted a key achievement—DriveONE reaching 12 km per kWh in A-segment EVs through joint testing with automakers. Huawei continues to collaborate across the industry to enhance vehicle efficiency, safety, and overall EV competitiveness.
Bob He, VP of Huawei Digital Power and President of its Data Center Facility & Critical Power Product Line, emphasized the company’s strides in ultra-fast charging at his keynote titled “Embracing the New Era of Ultra-fast Charging, Jointly Charging the Road Ahead.” He showcased progress from achieving 1 km of range per second for passenger EVs to 100 km in 5 minutes for electric HGVs. Since launching the FusionCharge Solution two years ago, Huawei has deployed high-speed charging networks across 50+ highways in 200 cities and 31 provinces in China, with plans to expand globally.
Huawei unveiled the industry’s first 2400 A fully liquid-cooled megawatt charging solution for electric HGVs, enabling “100 km range with a 5-minute charge” and earning the first-megawatt charging certification from the China Automotive Technology and Research Center. The solution boosts transport efficiency by 15% and helps HGV owners recover costs within three years. Designed for extreme logistics conditions, it supports the industry’s only 15-minute HGV charging. Huawei is also rolling out pilot projects across China to accelerate HGV electrification and expand electric logistics to medium- and long-distance transport.
