In the first half of this year, Xiamen King Long United Automotive Industry Co Ltd (hereinafter referred to as "King Long")'s overseas bus sales reached nearly 6,000 units, marking a year-on-year increase of approximately 60 percent. 

The company ranked first in China in bus exports during the first five months.

In February, 155 King Long coaches set sail for Jeddah Port, Saudi Arabia. By May, a batch of King Long new energy buses had been exported to Tunisia. Come June, 121 King Long new energy buses were delivered in Chile.

These milestones stand as exemplary cases of how Chinese technology, standards, and solutions are supporting Belt and Road countries in achieving green, low-carbon development and improving livelihoods.

King Long's vehicles have gained strong popularity across global markets, with official statistics showing they have exported more than 140,000 buses to over 150 countries and regions.

In the domestic market, King Long has demonstrated equally outstanding performance. The company delivered over 4,000 vehicles in the Chinese market during the first half of the year, with its business footprint continuing to expand. Successful bulk deliveries have been achieved across multiple regions, including Beijing, Hunan and Xinjiang.

In June, King Long achieved a historic milestone as its brand value surpassed the 100-billion-yuan threshold for the first time, reaching a record high of 109.61 billion yuan ($15.1 billion).
