Joint Ventures

Establishing strategic joint ventures with the ‘best of the best’ in the commercial vehicle industry, Foton’s three key strategic alliances has allowed access to global technological insights from:
Cummins, a global icon in the heavy-duty truck market and the world’s largest independent engine manufacturer
Germany’s Daimler Truck, the world’s largest manufacturer of premium commercial vehicles
ZF, the world’s largest supplier of transmission and chassis technology.
These three strategic alliances – with Cummins and Germany’s Daimler and ZF – provide a combination of attributes unique to Foton trucks. We call this Foton DNA.

Foton DNA

Foton’s high profile strategic alliances – coupled with a blue chip supply chain strategy with leading global automotive suppliers (Wabco, Bosch, etc) – provide Foton with the cutting-edge technology that is integral to Foton’s DNA.

Foton engineers have created a new benchmark for product design attributes, challenging its joint venture partners to deliver innovative solutions which provide an exemplary operator experience, in both look and feel.

A prime example of this DNA can be seen in our latest generation Aumark and Auman range of trucks.
