Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery Debuts on Farizon Xingxiang M7E, as ENERGEE Ushers in a New Era of Integrated Passenger and Commercial Mobility

Quzhou, Zhejiang, October 11, 2026—The Farizon Xingxiang M7E was officially launched, featuring the first public unveiling of the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery. The launch marks the Golden Brick Battery's official transformation from a "passenger vehicle traction battery brand" to a "full-scenario traction battery brand for both passenger and commercial vehicles".

This milestone was not achieved overnight. In May of this year, Farizon announced the adoption of Golden Brick batteries. In August, the Farizon Xingxiang M7E, equipped with the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery, underwent near-brutal rigorous testing under extreme high temperatures. In September, the vehicle debuted at the IAA Transportation in Hannover, Germany. Finally, on October 11, the new vehicle was launched. This half-year journey represents a step-by-step validation process leading to final implementation.

From Turpan to Quzhou: A Relay of "Validation First, Launch Later"

In August, surface temperatures in Turpan, Xinjiang approached 70 °C. The Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery—the first commercial-vehicle-exclusive battery built for Farizon—underwent near-brutal high-temperature testing at the CCCC (China Communications Construction Company Limited) Flaming Mountain Automotive Proving Ground. Even after tests involving arrow strikes and kettlebell impacts, the battery neither caught fire nor exploded.

From the testing ground in Turpan to the launch event in Quzhou, this validation relay concluded on October 11. According to Pan Fuzhong, CTO of ENERGEE and Dean of the Battery R&D Institute, the collaboration between ENERGEE and Farizon is not merely an extension of product lines, but a deep expansion of the entire technological system. Passenger-commercial synergy is not a simple technology transfer; rather, it involves precise scenario-based adaptation and customized technological upgrades based on the real-world operating conditions of commercial vehicles. Drawing on operational data from 600,000 Farizon users, ENERGEE focused on three core challenges—safety, charging efficiency, and service life. The company assembled a hundred experts, conducted over 10,000 hours of simulation and full-scenario real-vehicle validation, and created a dedicated power core for the M7E.

Four Key Strengths Address, Three Major User Concerns

Commercial vehicle users have three main concerns: battery safety, charging speed, and service life. Addressing these three requirements, the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery has undergone systematic optimization across four dimensions—safety, energy replenishment, lifespan, and intelligence—ultimately translating technological capabilities into a substantial reduction in operating costs.

Ultra-Safe: Minimizing Accident Risks

For commercial vehicle operators, accidents and downtime are major concerns. Starting with the intrinsic safety of the battery cell, the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery reduces the risk of internal short circuits by 33.2% through three primary source protections: thermal, electrical, and mechanical. At the system level, its active thermal propagation prevention technology combines real-time protection, unimpeded heat dissipation, intelligent temperature control, intelligent power-off, automatic alarms, and full-process cloud monitoring to achieve early risk prediction, early intervention, and rapid response. The battery also offers IP68/IPX9K water and dust resistance, effectively preventing moisture ingress and short circuits whether wading through rain or undergoing high-pressure washing.

Golden Brick cells have also passed extreme tests in passenger vehicles, including the simultaneous eight-needle penetration test, tank crushing, and live-bullet penetration. These tests exceed the latest national standards and meet military-grade safety benchmarks. This safety performance is fully inherited by the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery: the pack utilizes a high-strength steel cage-type enclosure design, and its overall structural fatigue life is three times the national standard.

Ultra-Fast Charging: 20% to 80% in Just 18 Minutes

For commercial vehicle users, faster charging means saved time and earned money. The Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery supports an average 2C fast charge, taking as little as 18 minutes to charge from 20% to 80% SOC at room temperature. Just 15 minutes of charging adds 200 km of range. Eighteen minutes is about the time it takes to enjoy a meal during a lunch break. Compared with mass-produced batteries in the same class, it saves 8–10 minutes per charging session.

Just as importantly, the battery delivers strong performance across a wide range of temperatures. At a normal temperature of 25 °C, the peak discharge rate reaches 5C, and even in -10 °C winter conditions, it maintains over 3C. Whether in scorching heat or severe cold, power is always on demand.

Ultra-Durable: Over 10,000 Cycles and a Service Life of 10 Years / 800,000 km

Commercial vehicles are work assets, so battery life has a direct impact on operating costs. Through five core technologies—homogenized cathode, low-enthalpy-change anode, multi-channel separator, ultra-fast dissociation electrolyte, and SEI self-repairing film—the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery suppresses degradation at the source. This enables the cell to achieve more than 10,000 cycles at room temperature, while the battery pack has a service life of up to 10 years / 800,000 km, meeting the industry's highest standards.

More importantly, the Farizon Xingxiang M7E is the first product in the commercial vehicle industry to offer a lifetime battery warranty policy. This means the battery transforms from an annually depreciating consumable into a productivity asset that accompanies the entire operational journey.

Ultra-Intelligent: The BMS as the Battery's "AI Brain"

The Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery’s BMS can be understood as its "AI brain". It provides three layers of intelligent protection: precise data collection, real-time response and protection, and round-the-clock status monitoring. Backed by Geely's big data platform, the AI-driven evolutionary architecture allows the battery to move from "fixed algorithms" to "self-evolution". The range displayed on the dashboard is real and reliable—no more inflated figures—giving drivers greater peace of mind. Vehicle-cloud collaboration enables 24/7 millisecond-level diagnostics, eliminating faults before they occur.

Advancing the "One Geely" Strategy Through Integrated Passenger and Commercial Mobility and Green Travel

Golden Brick Batteries are already equipped on multiple brand models, including ZEEKR, Lynk & Co, and Geely Galaxy, powering over 600,000 new energy passenger vehicles, with cumulative shipments of Golden Brick cells nearing 90 million units. The launch and implementation of the Golden Brick Zhiyuan Battery mark a key milestone in the deployment of ENERGEE's passenger-commercial synergy technology. Going forward, ENERGEE will continue to enhance its new energy solutions and support the transition to greener, low-carbon mobility.
