1-Ton Payload + L4 Autonomous Driving: JD Logistics Launches the Plus Version of its Sixth-Generation "Lone Wolf" Intelligent Delivery Vehicle

The cargo box volume has been expanded from 4 cubic meters to 5.5 cubic meters, with a maximum payload reaching 1 ton and a full-load range of up to 180 kilometers. This can meet the delivery needs of longer distances and larger volumes, further enhancing last-mile fulfillment capabilities.

On the software side, the new vehicle is equipped with a new generation of intelligent driving algorithms, expanding the perception range to 100 meters, and significantly enhancing the recognition of complex road conditions and traffic efficiency.

The vehicle innovatively adopts lightweight mapping technology, relying on onboard sensors for real-time map building on conventional road sections, and using high-precision maps to ensure safety for key sites and parking spaces. This balances low-cost deployment with high-reliability operation, solving the pain points of traditional unmanned vehicles' over-reliance on high-precision maps and high landing costs.

It also features a dual strategy of end-to-end algorithms and spatiotemporal joint decision planning, enabling intelligent judgment of paths and speeds in scenarios such as unprotected intersections, mixed traffic of pedestrians and vehicles, and overtaking on narrow roads, making passage safer and smoother.

Currently, JD Logistics’ unmanned delivery fleet is operating regularly in Suqian, Shenzhen, Wuhan and other cities, and is undergoing trial operations in Saudi Arabia. Relying on a human-machine collaboration model, it effectively improves delivery efficiency and optimizes the courier experience.

According to the plan, JD Logistics will purchase 1 million unmanned vehicles in the next 5 years, fully deploying them across the entire supply chain.
