Yutong Electric Mining Trucks Are Driving a Greener, More Efficient Shift in Zhejiang’s Mining Sector

The Linhai mining site in Zhejiang presents brutal operating conditions: extreme heat, high humidity, salt-spray corrosion, and heavy loads on steep grades, putting the stability and durability of mining trucks to the ultimate test. Yutong electric mining trucks have undergone multiple rounds of extreme condition tests and gained recognition from both new and old customers in the local mining area.

Henan Hongrun first put Yutong electric mining trucks to work in 2021, and they’ve now logged six straight years of real-world operation. Feedback from the site is positive: the key NEV system (battery, motor, and electric controller), chassis, and frame have all held up reliably, with truck uptime staying above 95%. Battery degradation has also come in better than expected. Compared to diesel trucks, energy costs are down by more than 80%. Yutong’s service team is stationed on-site for fast response, and with the Link+ platform delivering early alerts on battery level, energy usage, and potential faults, fleet management has been smoother, which is why the company keeps adding more Yutong trucks.

Deqing Jinfeng, a first-time Yutong buyer, chose the brand after thorough market research and word-of-mouth validation from established local users. On the mine’s standard hauling routes, a diesel truck burns close to RMB 40 in fuel per trip. The Yutong electric truck, on the other hand, has rock-solid range. It only needs one charge every two days, and the electricity for the same route costs just a few yuan.

Built on a mining-dedicated electric platform with proven NEV technology, Yutong mining trucks are built to handle everything from high humidity and heat to sandstorms and other demanding conditions. With dedicated on-site service teams and comprehensive maintenance packages, Yutong mining trucks deliver a stable, low-cost, and intelligent green transportation solution for mines, helping ensure safe and efficient mining operations.
