The Windrose R700 is specifically designed for zero-emissions long-haul transportation, featuring a massive 729 kWh battery pack that provides exceptional range and stability during long-distance operations. With an 800V high-voltage platform, the R700 offers ultra-fast charging capabilities, adding up to 400 km of range in just 35 minutes. Equipped with three high-efficiency motors, this electric truck delivers robust power and acceleration, ensuring reliable performance on various terrains.
Prior to the official launch, Windrose conducted several tests in collaboration with Kerry Logistics, including a round trip from Kunshan to Beijing covering 2,365 km with only two charging stops. Another test involved a direct 677 km journey from Jinan to Nanjing, which was completed without recharging and still had 32% battery remaining upon arrival, showcasing the R700’s impressive range and efficiency.
The first batch of Windrose R700 trucks was manufactured in December 2024, marking the beginning of deliveries in the domestic market. Plans are in place for deliveries in the U.S. in the first half of 2025, followed by European markets in the second half of the year. The truck will then be introduced in Australia, New Zealand, and other regions.
