Foton Motor has officially announced the launch of the new General EV electric pickup truck. The headline news is the aggressive new starting price of just 119,800 RMB.
The new model offers an impressive CLTC range of up to 535 kilometers. It also features an IP68 protection rating and comes with a lifetime warranty on its core electric components (battery, motor, and controller). The truck bed maintains a useful width of 1.58 meters. Foton is also offering a special “four major gifts” user rights package at launch.
A Massive Price Reduction
The new starting price of 119,800 RMB makes the General EV significantly more accessible. For comparison, the previous model lineup had a price range of 163,800 to 363,800 RMB. This new pricing dramatically lowers the entry barrier for a full-size electric pickup. According to the launch poster, the exterior design of the vehicle remains unchanged.
Improved Range and Features
The key improvement for the new General EV is its driving range. High-end configurations of the new model can now achieve up to 535 km on a single charge (CLTC). This is an increase over the previous maximum of 520 km.
Key features highlighted include:
- Max Range: Up to 535 km (CLTC)
- Protection: IP68 rating for dust and water resistance
- Warranty: Lifetime warranty on the “three electrics” (battery, motor, controller)
- Cargo Bed: 1.58 meters wide

Powertrain Context
While the announcement did not detail the specific configurations of the new low-priced models, we can refer to the existing lineup for context. The previous General EV models offered:
- Power: 130 kW (2WD) and 250 kW (4WD) options.
- Torque: Multiple versions with 270, 350, or 526 N·m.
