Bishkek, a key Central Asian city linking Europe and Asia, has once again drawn international attention.

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit was held here from August 31 to September 1. Leaders and representatives from member states, invited countries and international organizations gathered to discuss regional security and development priorities. Running concurrently was the 6th World Nomad Games, making Bishkek a key venue for international exchanges and cultural convergence.

As security and transportation support operations for two major international events get fully underway, BAIC FOTON TOANO vans and FOTON buses have been deployed in batches and officially incorporated into the event support fleet. They are tasked with transporting personnel and equipment, as well as handling masstransfer assignments. Delivering differentiated transport capacity to meet varied requirements, the vehicles provide reliable performance for the events and have earned high recognition from overseas official authorities.

Twomodel lineup delivers robust capabilities to meet diverse support requirements for international events

International summits feature highlevel protocols and tightlycoordinated support workflows, placing comprehensive requirements on vehicle loadcarrying capacity, operational stability, dispatching efficiency and ride comfort. To address such needs, BAIC FOTON delivered a transportation capacity portfolio covering mobile support and group passenger transport, providing wellconnected and reliable support for various segments of the summit.

Among them, the TOANO delivers strengths in flexible dispatching and highload capacity. Its reardualwheel chassis improves loadcarrying capability and driving stability. The ISF2.8 powertrain balances strong output and proven durability to support continuous operation. Highquality fauxleather seats optimized with ergonomic design ensure ride comfort during missions. The combination of loadbearing performance, powertrain and comfort features enables the vehicle to meet requirements for personnel and equipment transport as well as multitask dispatching.

Unlike the TOANO, which focuses on mobilityoriented support, the deployed BAIC FOTON AUV 1112meter intercity bus series delivers stable, highcapacity peopletransport solutions for the summit. Capable of handling daily operation requirements of over 500 kilometers, the buses balance transport efficiency and riding comfort through optimized seat arrangements, passenger space and luggagecompartment volume.

The firstbatch orders are delivered directly to the summit venue, supporting BAIC FOTON to expand its presence and reach in overseas markets

Notably, the TOANO units deployed for the summit support represent BAIC FOTON’s firstbatch TOANO orders secured in the local market. Put into service right after delivery for the SCO Summit, these vehicles work alongside FOTON AUV intercity buses to deliver transportation support. This deployment validates the product’s adaptability to highstandard service scenarios and reflects positive recognition of BAIC FOTON’s brand and product quality from local authorities.

Against the newmarket backdrop, BAIC FOTON is building longterm competitiveness through comprehensive internationalization, comprehensive newenergy transition and comprehensive intelligent transformation. This missioncritical support represents concrete implementation of its comprehensive internationalization strategy in Central Asia. Going forward, with a more complete product portfolio, solid scenariobased capabilities and credible brand performance, BAIC FOTON will keep expanding the global competitive footprint of Chinese commercialvehicle manufacturers.
