FAW Jiefang Delivers 36 Trucks to J&T Express in the Philippines
On June 7, 2025, FAW Jiefang delivered the first batch of 36 Tiger V light trucks, customized for express delivery, to J&T Express PH at its QSJ factory in the Philippines1. This delivery marks a significant step in FAW Jiefang's entry into the Philippine logistics market and highlights the company's commitment to supporting local transportation networks with intelligent Chinese manufacturing1.
The Tiger V trucks are built on FAW Jiefang's independently developed platform and feature efficient powertrains1. They have undergone rigorous testing in extreme environments, including high temperatures, humidity, and heavy rain1. To suit the local conditions, engineers enhanced the cooling system for the tropical climate and optimized the chassis for better performance on rocky and steep roads commonly found on the islands1. These improvements ensure high reliability, cost-effectiveness, and low maintenance costs1.
This collaboration with J&T Express PH is the third such partnership following successful projects in Mexico and Thailand1. It reflects strong recognition of FAW Jiefang's product quality, especially its fuel efficiency1. Moving forward, the two companies will establish a joint technical working group to develop vehicles tailored to specific needs, such as lightweight design, larger capacity, and extended range1. They will also share smart fleet management systems to jointly promote intelligent logistics in the Philippines1.
A representative from J&T Express PH acknowledged FAW Jiefang's strong reputation and advanced technological capabilities in the region, expressing confidence that these trucks will greatly enhance their customer service and market expansion efforts1.
The Philippine economy has been growing rapidly within Southeast Asia, with its e-commerce sector expanding by over 20% annually1. This growth has driven increased demand for efficient logistics1. As an archipelago of more than 7,000 islands, a reliable transportation network is crucial for ensuring smooth goods distribution1.
FAW Jiefang currently exports its products to 88 countries and regions worldwide, with overseas sales growing at an average annual rate of more than 60% over the past three years15. The company continues to implement its "SPRINT 2030" international strategy, adapting to local markets and supporting global customers with high-quality products and services
