Wan Gang, minister of Science and Technology inspected Yutong for the development situation of new energy vehicles on Aug. 13, who was warmly welcome by Tang Yuxiang, president of Yutong Group.

Accompanied by Tang, Wan and his entourage took the Yutong hybrid 6126MGQB9 city bus and were shown around Yutong Industrial Park, including final assembly workshop, experiment center, etc. During the visit, Wan asked in detail about the company’s technical innovation situation, development and application of new energy vehicles, overseas market exploration and so on.

On Tengfei Square, the diversity of Yutong buses attracted the attention of Wan. “The design of the bus is fascinated! It’s a great idea! It should have great market potential,” said Wan in the full-view sightseeing bus. After seeing the ZK6602 school bus, Wan started the bus and drove it personally. “I can drive large-sized buses when I was 18 years old, so I’m also a driver veteran. The bus drives very smoothly and is very powerful,” said Wan while his driving. He repeatedly praised the performance of the vehicle even after getting off the bus.

Prior to departure, Wan congratulated the company on the accomplishment in the new energy vehicles’ development as well as its technical renovation work. He also made suggestions on the company’s future development, especially the development of new energy products and wished Yutong’s prospect would become better and better.
