📋 Tender Overview
Scope :
Windrose Technology, a Chinese start-up, plans to build an assembly plant in Georgia to mass-produce battery-powered Class 8 vehicles. However, the vehicle appears to be a knockoff copy of Tesla’s heavy-duty truck.
Windrose will compete directly with Tesla's Semi with a $250,000 price tag. The truck will feature a 700-kiolwatt-hour battery pack capable of operating more than 400 miles on a single charge fully loaded at 49 tons.
The Georgia factory will assemble vehicles from parts made in China. Windrose also plans to build a factory in Belgium to supply the European market.
The company expects to deliver its first batch of electric trucks in China next month and aims to produce more than 10,000 vehicles globally by the end of 2027. Manufacturing in China is being outsourced to Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group and Higer Bus.
