LOVOL's Smart Agriculture Panorama: From Core Equipment to AI Model
At this year's exhibition, the LOVOL booth was undoubtedly a core attraction. From CVT tractors and powershift products to the newly released new energy tractor matrix, star products like China's largest feeding capacity wheat harvester, and the industry-leading Chinese smart agriculture AI model, Weichai LOVOL showcased a complete solution covering the entire chain of "ploughing, planting, management, and harvesting."
LOVOL Smart Tractor Matrix: CVT, Powershift, and New Energy
In the tractor exhibition area, as a result of LOVOL's continuous promotion of CVT tractor commercialization, the LOVOL 340 HP CVT series smart tractor has broken through key technologies like stepless transmission, automatically adjusting power output based on operational demands for highly efficient and precise work. The LOVOL M2004-5RP powershift tractor fundamentally resolves issues with traditional clutch failures; through electronic button or joystick control, it enables directional changes and electronic operations without clutching, significantly enhancing operational convenience and efficiency.
Amid China's deepening "Dual Carbon" initiatives and the rapid rise of the new energy vehicle industry, the Chinese agricultural machinery sector is witnessing a critical window for technological catch-up through electrification. LOVOL has identified new energy as a key lever for future industrial upgrading, accelerating breakthroughs in domestic intelligent agricultural machinery. The new energy tractors displayed, featuring both oil-electric hybrid and pure electric technology routes, became a major highlight of the show, not only for their energy savings and environmental benefits but also for their breakthroughs in intelligence and high-efficiency operation, demonstrating the enterprise's leading strength in the high-end smart agricultural machinery sector.
Among them, the LOVOL E3404-8H oil-electric hybrid tractor targets pain points in heavy-duty operations like large-plot plowing, subsoiling, and combined land preparation. It adopts an ECVT technical route, achieving a 0-40 km/h stepless speed range. Compared to common hybrid solutions, transmission efficiency is increased by over 10%, and fuel consumption is reduced by approximately 20%. It is equipped with an independently developed floating front axle and a fully wire-controlled heavy-duty chassis entirely employing electro-hydraulic control. The highly integrated intelligent control and human-machine interaction within the floating cab made it a focal point at the exhibition due to its advanced technical route, intelligence, and comfort features.
Designed for modern, intensive ranches, the LOVOL E2000ET-6 pure electric tractor is equipped with a 141 kWh high-safety lithium iron phosphate battery. Paired with various specifications of TMR mixers, it can achieve 4-8 hours of continuous high-intensity operation. Standard features include 1-hour fast charging, intelligent three-electric thermal management technology, and a floating cab. Capable of L2-level unmanned driving, it adopts the industry-leading AMT technical route and a dual-motor direct-drive architecture, offering a 0-1000 r/min stepless, precisely customizable Power Take-Off (PTO). Leveraging the inherent advantages of pure electric drive, its forward-looking technical framework, and highly intelligent human-machine interaction, it perfectly adapts to the precise and intelligent operational needs of ranches.
The LOVOL E504ET-3 pure electric tractor, crafted for small/medium-sized ranches and orchards, features a large-capacity 58 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack, intelligent three-electric thermal management technology, 1-hour fast charging, and a maximum endurance of 10 hours. It not only achieves zero emissions and low noise but can also be paired with various compound implements to easily handle tasks like plowing, rotary tilling, and transport. The dual-motor direct drive enables a dual-stepless transmission experience. Full electro-hydraulic intelligent control, L2-level unmanned driving functionality, and a floating cab with noise levels as low as 75 dB offer users a "zero-emission, low-noise, high-intelligence" operational experience.
The new energy tractor products displayed by LOVOL not only systematically demonstrate the robust capabilities of these products but also offer a profound interpretation of future agricultural technology pathways, leading the new trend of electronically controlled stepless transmission for Chinese intelligent agricultural machinery.
LOVOL Efficient Harvesting Machinery and Intelligent Implements
In the harvesting machinery section, LOVOL not only brought star products like the LOVOL Golden Corn CE04 corn harvester and the LOVOL Golden Grain RG series crawler machine, but also the LOVOL Golden Grain GS8239 harvester. With a massive feeding capacity of 23 kg/sec, it breaks foreign technological monopolies. Capable of self-adaptive control prioritizing efficiency and grain quality, it maximizes loss reduction and efficiency gain, successfully elevating China's high-capacity grain combine harvesters to international advanced levels.
LOVOL also showcased a series of high-end agricultural implements, including the 18-row electric drive precision seeder and the electric drive compound precision drill. Among them, the LOVOL 18-row electric drive precision seeder is versatile, capable of precision seeding for crops like corn, soybeans, and sorghum with an operational speed of up to 12 km/h, ensuring high speed and efficiency. The electric drive compound precision drill employs soil-crushing, leveling, and secondary pressing technologies, achieving a breakthrough in the core technology of compound wheat seeding. It also features intelligent monitoring systems for miss-seeding, blockage, and worked area statistics, further enhancing operational quality and delivering more significant yield-increasing effects.
AI Model Launch: Creating the "Strongest Brain" for Smart Agriculture
During the exhibition, the release of LOVOL's AI model full-scenario solution attracted significant attention. As China's first industry-level large model focusing on both "intelligent agricultural machinery" and "smart agriculture" scenarios, it equips agricultural production with a "digital brain" capable of autonomous learning, scientific analysis, and precise decision-making.
Empowering Intelligent Agricultural Machinery: The strength of this "brain" stems from its profound foundation. Developed based on LOVOL's deep accumulation and practical R&D from tens of millions of agricultural machinery operation data points, agro-meteorological monitoring, satellite remote sensing, and other multi-source agricultural data, it is no longer just a breakthrough in a single technology. Driven by multi-dimensional data, it completely breaks down the barriers between intelligent agricultural machinery and smart agriculture systems, enabling functions like whole-vehicle route planning, automatic obstacle avoidance, fault warning, and intelligent diagnosis.
Empowering Scientific Planting: The model adopts a "cloud-edge collaboration" architecture, capable of outputting scientific farming plans and agricultural decision-making suggestions for modern agriculture. Practical calculations show that the precision operation system empowered by this model can increase crop yield by 10%, save 5% on seeds, reduce fertilizer and pesticide use by 10% each, and save 50% of agricultural water, empowering modern agricultural production to be more scientific, efficient, and precise.
The successful release of the LOVOL AI model has pressed the "accelerator" for the development of smart agriculture in China. The model has reshaped the entire application scenario from "pre-production, mid-production, to post-production," constructing a new paradigm for agricultural production that is technology-driven and continuously optimized.
Digital Intelligence Empowerment, LOVOL Marches Forward with "New" Strategy
LOVOL's presence at the 2025 CIAME systematically demonstrated its leading strength in high-end intelligent agricultural machinery equipment and holistic smart agriculture solutions, also reflecting LOVOL's commitment to providing green, technological, efficient, and intelligent comprehensive solutions for the sustainable development of modern agriculture. In the future, Weichai LOVOL Smart Agriculture will continue to use technological innovation as its engine, propelling Chinese agricultural machinery equipment steadily towards greening and intelligence, contributing "Chinese Power" to global agricultural modernization.
