Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
Tonly invented and leads the Chinese wide-body off-road mining truck category and has become the volume channel through which autonomy reaches Chinese mines. Its own autonomy is largely supplied by partner EACON, an OEM-agnostic autonomous haulage provider, with Tonly contributing the vehicle, the new-energy powertrain and battery-swap capability; the two jointly released the EQ100E, a distributed-drive, cabless, all-battery-electric autonomous mining truck, in October 2025. The deployment record is the strongest in this batch: at CHN Energy Xinjiang Hongshaquan No.2 open-pit coal mine a fleet of 58 autonomous trucks operates with 52 running pure-electric, having logged over 500,000 kilometres of incident-free operation at a mine producing 20 million tonnes annually. Fleets also run at TBEA, Guanghui Energy and Xinjiang Yihua. Internationally it delivered 62 TLH135 hybrids to Shougang Marcona in Peru and 50 DTE145 battery trucks to Zijin La Arena. FY2025 revenue was RMB 6,389 million, up 3.98 percent, with net profit RMB 839 million, 23.0 percent gross margin and 23.3 percent ROE. The 2026 story is internationalisation and a large domestic order: H1 2026 overseas revenue rose 45.15 percent to RMB 714 million at 20.11 percent of revenue, and on 2026-07-16 Tonly signed a framework with contractor Xinjiang Hanxiang for 800 autonomous mining trucks.
