In the first half of 2026, the electrification trend in the sanitation vehicle industry continued to accelerate. Demand for new energy sanitation vehicles grew steadily, driving continuous expansion in order volumes. The market share of new energy models increased by 12.43 percentage points compared with the same period last year, steadily approaching 30%.
The rapid transition toward green sanitation is driven not only by favorable policies, but also by the proven advantages of new energy sanitation vehicles, including zero emissions, low noise, reduced lifecycle operating costs, and better adaptation to the increasingly refined requirements of urban sanitation operations.
Driven by the accelerating electrification of the sanitation industry, Yiwei Auto continues to experience strong market momentum, with production and delivery progressing at full capacity. Multiple batches of new energy sanitation vehicles have been delivered nationwide. Recently, Yiwei Auto successfully delivered vehicles to customers across Hebei, Hubei, Sichuan, Beijing, and other regions, supporting frontline sanitation operations and contributing to greener urban development.
According to recent delivery data, the 12.5-ton pure electric refuse collection truck has emerged as the key delivery model. Designed to balance loading capacity, driving range, and operational efficiency, the vehicle is well suited for daily urban and rural waste collection and transfer applications. With reliable performance and strong adaptability to diverse sanitation projects, it has earned widespread recognition from customers nationwide.
12.5-ton refuse collection vehicle
According to recent delivery data, the 12.5-ton pure electric refuse compactor truck has emerged as the key delivery model. Designed to balance loading capacity, driving range, and operational efficiency, the vehicle is well suited for daily urban and rural waste collection and transfer applications. With reliable performance and strong adaptability to diverse sanitation projects, it has earned widespread recognition from customers nationwide.
Available with 8.5 m³ and 12 m³ container capacities, the vehicle delivers a 30% improvement in transfer efficiency compared with traditional fuel-powered sanitation vehicles, reducing the number of return trips and increasing overall waste collection productivity.
Equipped with an 18 MPa high-pressure hydraulic system, the vehicle delivers fast cycles with ≤14s compression, ≤45s unloading, and ≤12s loading. It supports automatic loading of 240L and 660L waste bins, with an optional sealed feeding system to reduce dust and odor emissions.
Equipped with 340L and 360L sewage tanks, the vehicle adopts a dual sealing system combining a horseshoe-shaped sealing strip and hydraulic locking mechanism, ensuring zero leakage during waste transfer and preventing secondary pollution.
The vehicle features multiple smart designs, including rotary gear shifting, hill-hold assist, and low-speed creep mode. Optional 360° panoramic view and AI recognition systems enhance safety by detecting personnel in operation areas and automatically controlling compaction processes, enabling safer and smarter sanitation operations.
The vehicle delivers zero emissions during driving and compaction operations, with operating noise as low as 65 dB, making it ideal for early morning and nighttime sanitation work in residential areas. It perfectly meets the needs of low-carbon, refined urban sanitation and has become one of Yiwei Auto’s popular delivery models.
Facing the growing new energy sanitation market, Yiwei Auto will continue to focus on the R&D and manufacturing of pure electric sanitation vehicles, delivering high-quality products, improving delivery and after-sales service systems, and providing reliable solutions to support greener cities and the low-carbon transformation of the sanitation industry.
