"Marching the industry with one SANY diesel truck, to now having 44 SANY vehicles embarking on new journeys, I’ve witnessed SANY growing stronger. We keep believing, because we’ve seen it with our own eyes!” At SANY TRUCK's fourth vehicle trade-in ceremony, themed by "honoring a promise carries the weight of gold, and sincerity leads to lasting success." Mr. Dong Sun, the Council Member of the Zhiyuan Association National Committee, delivered a heartfelt speech that resonated deeply with many truck enthusiasts. 

The Beginning: Enchanted at First Sight, Traveling 14 Hours for Trust

In 2018, Dong Sun was instantly drawn to the SANY Hero Edition diesel truck—with its spacious sleeper and premium configuration. His trust in the SANY brand led him to place an order without hesitation. Taking turns driving with two partners over the 14-hour journey to pick up the new truck, he felt thrilled and astonished by its stable performance—no less impressive than top-tier brands.

What warmed his heart even more was the SANY trucker community, which became a bridge for cross-province connections. "I’ve met many truckers from all over the country through SANY trucker community!”, said Dong Sun. As a member of the Zhiyuan Association for 7 years and a SANY truck owner, this grand event stands as a dual testimony to his initial trust and enduring bond. From the roared engines to the powerful electric motor, his unwavering choice of SANY has never faltered.

A Shared Journey: Multiple "Homecomings" Witnessing Brand Growth

Over the past seven years, Dong Sun has long regarded SANY as "home," and this is far from his first “homecoming”. Starting with his first diesel truck in 2018, he now operates a fleet of 30 diesel trucks and 14 electric trucks. In 2024, he returned to participate in this vehicle trade-in event, and was offered a brand-new diesel truck.

In August of this year, he placed an order for 14 SANY electric trucks, becoming the first owner in the local area to deploy electric trucks on a large scale for operations. Models 425 and 600 are already in service for coal transportation, with plans to purchase 16 more electric trucks for sand and gravel transport. Time and again, he "returns home" and makes his choice. Having witnessed SANY’s every stage of growth firsthand, he has demonstrated his profound recognition of the brand through tangible actions.

Electric Trucks Application: 50% Energy Savings, Excellence in the Details

From diesel to electric trucks, Dong Sun’s commitment to choosing SANY has remained steadfast. This unwavering trust has been a driving force behind SANY TRUCK's progress. "Energy consumption is 50% lower compared to that of diesel trucks, and the lightweight design is excellent. Once you figure out the charging route on the journey, it’s really smooth sailing!" he praised, speaking of the electric trucks’ advantages. "When it comes to design, quality, interior, and performance—SANY just stands out. Absolutely, It’s my top preference!"

This preference is further rooted in details. "The direct service (SANY's exclusive door-to-door service) is incredibly considerate—on-call, door-to-door support, entirely different from traditional service stations!", said Dong Sun. The Zhiyuntong system (telematics system) has also become an essential tool for daily operations. "Checking the daily performance reports, I can easily track driver rankings—efficient and worry-free," he added.

This steadfast trust, bridging the diesel and electric eras, will continue to be SANY Trucks' greatest source of confidence forging ahead resolutely. "I sincerely encourage all fellow truckers to give SANY electric trucks a try. They’re energy-efficient and drive smoothly. Friends, running with a reliable truck is how we widen our path to greater prosperity!"
