China Emerges as ZF's Global Growth Engine with Multisector Breakthroughs in H1 2025

In the first half of 2025, the Asia-Pacific region maintained robust development momentum. Achievements spanned passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, industrial technology, and aftermarket sectors, solidifying China’s role as a core strategic market. Leveraging the "China Speed" and "China Efficiency," China has become ZF Group’s global growth engine13.

Wang Runyi, Executive Vice President of ZF Group and President for China and APAC Operations, stated: "China remains ZF’s core strategic market. In H1, we not only localized the R&D and mass production of cutting-edge global technologies but also introduced Chinese innovations to global markets1. The region’s key financial metrics exceeded targets, making outstanding contributions to ZF’s global performance. Every breakthrough reflects the success of our localization strategy and strong recognition from local customers."

For commercial vehicles, ZF achieved mass production of the second-generation TraXon hybrid transmission in China and globally debuted the e-comp Scroll oil-free scroll electric air compressor. These innovations drive high-quality development through localized solutions1. With advanced technologies in braking, steering, transmission, damping, and ADAS, ZF secured multiple projects for commercial vehicles, including major export orders from leading bus manufacturers, fully supporting Chinese clients’ transformation and global expansion strategies.
