Engineered for high temperature resistance, heavy duty payloads, and off-grid solar-integrated transport corridors.
Namibia is strategically positioned as the gateway to the Southern African Development Community (SADC). Through the Port of Walvis Bay and key arteries like the Trans-Kalahari and Trans-Caprivi Highways, the nation manages critical cargo transit to Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. As global organizations seek to mitigate Scope 3 logistics emissions, the demand for high-capacity electric trucks is intensifying.
Namibia boasts one of the highest solar irradiation profiles globally, presenting a massive opportunity for direct solar-powered EV charging infrastructure. Our specialized commercial electric trucks feature active Liquid Cooling battery packs (LFP chemistry) designed to sustain optimal operating temperatures during harsh Kalahari routes where ambient temperatures regularly exceed 40°C.

A Global Powerhouse in New Energy & Heavy Commercial Vehicles
As one of China's primary automotive conglomerates, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor Co., Ltd. (DFLZM) has engineered and exported commercial heavy machinery for over five decades. Through our dedicated truck marque "Chenglong" and EV lines, we provide specialized platforms configured for extreme off-road, long-haul freight, and utility sectors across Namibia, South Africa, and the wider sub-Saharan region.
Ensuring uninterrupted delivery and tailored KD engineering for Southern Africa fleets.
We deploy the Integrated Product Development (IPD) methodology, aligning product design with real-world road stress testing. DFLZM operates five national and provincial level research laboratories focusing on thermal, stress, battery endurance, and safety simulation.
Our production facilities maintain over 86% physical stress testing capabilities for vehicles, ensuring our structural steel alloys, electrical assemblies, and battery management frameworks can withstand heavy salt air near Walvis Bay and desert dust storms inland.
With an annual export capacity of 30,000 KD units, DFLZM supports localized vehicle packaging (SKD/CKD). We partner with African governments and operators to support regional assembly plants, transfer technologies, and lower customs import duties.
By transitioning toward Smart Manufacturing 4.0, DFLZM integrates automated mechanical welding, laser scanning quality inspection, and intelligent paint systems. This guarantees high assembly precision, consistent build quality, and extreme anti-corrosion protection—ideal for heavy transport in coastal Namibian cities.
Furthermore, our digital logistics supply network keeps standard components accessible for rapid dispatch, minimizing maintenance lag-times in remote mining and agricultural corridors.
