On September 11, a delegation from Yuchai Power and Yuchai Xingwang Zhiyun visited Keroty. Yuchai Power is a strategic partner of Keroty, while Yuchai Xingwang Zhiyun is a technology subsidiary of the Yuchai Group focused on intelligent solutions, delivering products built around data management and smart applications.
At the meeting, Xingwang Zhiyun presented two key projects: a smart cockpit and an intelligent AI platform. The smart cockpit focuses on in-cab interaction and ease of operation, while the intelligent AI platform targets the collection, analysis, and application of field-operation data. Yang Zhen, Chairman of Yuchai Xingwang Zhiyun, noted that the company specializes in agricultural machinery intelligence and is confident about the direction of smart new-energy farm machinery. He expressed the hope of working closely with Keroty on the smart cockpit and AI platform to bring the technology into real farming scenarios. Zhang Xianchao, Chairman of Keroty, said that Keroty has cooperated with Yuchai's general-purpose engine division on engine supply for many years, and this new engagement on intelligent business is a natural extension of that partnership. Keroty will work with Xingwang Zhiyun to put the technology into practice and jointly advance the intelligent upgrade of new-energy tractors.
On implementation, the two sides reached a preliminary cooperation intent: the smart cockpit and the intelligent AI platform will be installed first on a trial basis on Keroty's 220 hp new-energy tractor. For the smart cockpit, the plan is to add a pillar-mounted LCD screen inside the cab so the operator can check vehicle status and operation data in real time, and to integrate a control module into the armrest console to operate the VCU (vehicle control unit), keeping controls more centralized and within easy reach. For the intelligent AI platform, the plan is to link the navigation system with the power unit and implements, enabling digital management of operation data. In the long run, the system will move step by step toward the smart farm, from single-machine intelligence to coordinated machine fleets.
After the meeting, Chairman Zhang Xianchao accompanied the visitors on a tour of the company showroom and production workshop. In the showroom, drawing on the display vehicles and product materials, he introduced Keroty's main new-energy tractor models, technical roadmap, and market applications. In the production workshop, he presented the complete assembly process and key process controls for Keroty new-energy tractors, with a focus on hybrid system assembly and pre-delivery inspection. During the visit, the two sides exchanged views on site on technical details such as the installation position of the smart cockpit and the interface adaptation of the control modules.
Next, the two sides will continue in-depth engagement on applying the smart cockpit and intelligent AI platform in agricultural scenarios, moving the technology from concept to actual equipment fitment. Users of Keroty new-energy tractors will be among the first to experience the smart cockpit and AI platform features. Keroty will also continue to deepen cooperation with industry-chain partners and advance steadily on the path of intelligentization.
