The Shanghai Auto Show is on fire!Dongfeng FORTHING debuts with the "King of Ultra-Long Endurance" and welfare black technology, setting the new energy track ablaze!
At the 21st Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition, FORTHING made a dazzling appearance, showcasing its impressive achievements and profound capabilities in intelligent technologies through innovative products and cutting-edge advancements.
Since the launch of the “Oriental Wind Rising” initiative in 2021, FORTHING has been firmly committed to intelligent transformation. Through years of technological progress and strategic investment, the brand has continuously achieved new breakthroughs under its "Leapfrogging Action" program. At this year’s auto show, FORTHING officially unveiled its new technology brand, “Tianyuan Intelligence”, establishing a comprehensive “One Core, Two Foundations, and Two Applications” intelligent technology framework, with the mission to empower user dreams and reshape the future mobility experience.
A FORTHING spokesperson emphasized at the event:
"With the perseverance of sharpening a sword for ten years and the determination to lead the new race, FORTHING is dedicated to developing intelligent technologies, creating intelligent products, and co-building an intelligent ecosystem. We will fully embrace the era of intelligence, boldly explore uncharted territories, and drive the brand’s transformational leap forward.”
The launch of the “Tianyuan Intelligence” brand highlights FORTHING’s unwavering commitment to user safety. At its heart is the “One Core” — the enterprise-grade Taichi Large Model. Independently developed and AI-driven, this model features comprehensive integration, all-scenario empowerment, and continuous self-evolution capabilities. With over a trillion parameters and fueled by extensive resources — including tens of thousands of corporate knowledge documents, billions of driving perception datasets, and tens of millions of cockpit data points — the Taichi Large Model deeply adapts to business scenarios, integrating AI into operations, manufacturing, and ecosystems. Supported by a powerful computing platform with tens of thousands of GPUs, it enables a qualitative leap in operational efficiency and productivity across the entire value chain.
In smart operations, intelligent assistants such as AI Design, AI Coding, and AI Simulation tools significantly shorten vehicle development cycles, lower collaboration costs, and boost R&D and management efficiency.
In intelligent manufacturing, dynamic production planning achieves flexible manufacturing, greatly improving factory utilization rates.In smart ecosystems, FORTHING accurately identifies user needs for vehicle functionalities and scenarios, leveraging real-time cloud-based monitoring and diagnostics to ensure user safety.
Supporting the “One Core” are the “Two Foundations”:
●The Tianyuan EEA (Electrical and Electronic Architecture)— a self-developed, highly integrated central smart platform that achieves deep integration across powertrain, body, cockpit, and autonomous driving domains.
●The Tianyuan OS— a next-generation open-source operating system designed for the entire vehicle, focused on safety, efficiency, and openness. With full-domain fusion across cockpit, autonomous driving, and vehicle control, Tianyuan OS offers high performance and security while lowering the barriers for domestic chips to be used in automotive applications, significantly improving chip resource utilization.
Built on the “One Core and Two Foundations”, FORTHING has developed “Two Applications”:
●Tianyuan Smart Driving— safe, intelligent, and highly user-friendly, offering solutions from T100 to T1000 levels, supporting a full range of scenarios from NOA (Navigate on Autopilot) assistance to L4 and L5 fully autonomous driving.
●Tianyuan Smart Cockpit— intuitive, user-centric, and deeply understanding user needs, integrating platforms like Deepseek and Doubao to create a “vision + voice + biometric sensing” intelligent hub, delivering a warm, comfortable "third living space" for users.
FORTHING’s exhibition booth at the auto show embraced a strong sense of technology and futurism. Massive LED screens looped brand videos and product highlights, while interactive experience zones drew large crowds. Visitors immersed themselves in smart driving and smart cockpit experiences through VR devices and engaged directly with AI robots to learn about the technological details. On opening day alone, FORTHING attracted tens of thousands of visitors, with consultation and test drive bookings soaring — making it one of the most popular booths at the show.
During the exhibition, FORTHING also officially launched the FORTHING S7 Extended Range Version. Built on the Quantum Architecture platform and equipped with the Mach Super Range-Extending Technology, it combines a 1.5L range extender with an electric motor and a 28.4 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery. It achieves an impressive 235 km of pure electric range (CLTC cycle) and a total range of up to 1250 km, effectively solving range anxiety for users.
FORTHING S7 continues its distinctive design language with a closed front grille, L-shaped headlights, a fastback side profile, hidden door handles, and multiple body color options. Inside, it features an 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster, a 15.6-inch center touchscreen, a dual-spoke steering wheel, a column-mounted shifter, a 360° panoramic imaging system, and a memory function for the driver’s seat — offering a rich, high-tech configuration.
In addition, FORTHING showcased FORTHING V9 Welfare Edition, specifically designed to enhance travel experiences for people with mobility challenges. Featuring advanced active safety and intelligent driving assistance functions, it fully embodies the brand’s commitment to human-centered care.
Looking ahead, under the leadership of the Tianyuan Intelligence technology brand, FORTHING will continue to advance in the field of intelligence, delivering smarter, safer, and more convenient mobility experiences. By persistently innovating, FORTHING is committed to providing users with more high-quality, intelligent vehicle products — leading the new wave of intelligent mobility.
