The China Annual Conference on Automotive Thermal Management Technology was recently held in Shanghai. As a key player in the global automotive thermal management sector, two major subsidiaries of Aotecar Group—Nanjing Aotecar and Shanghai International Thermal Systems—jointly attended this industry event. Leveraging their exceptional system solutions and cutting-edge technological innovation capabilities, both companies were awarded the prestigious “Thermal Excellence Award – Most Influential Enterprise” for 2025 in the field of New Energy Vehicle Thermal Management.
This dual honor not only represents significant recognition of the two subsidiaries’ years of dedication to the thermal management field and their sustained leadership in driving technological transformation, but also underscores Aotecar’s core leadership position and comprehensive competitiveness within the new energy vehicle thermal management landscape.
At this year’s annual conference, Nanjing Aotecar and International Thermal Systems each showcased multiple breakthrough technological achievements tailored to the demands of electrification and intelligentization, generating widespread industry attention. Nanjing Aotecar, focusing on core compressor technology, introduced three major innovations:
- New Refrigerant Compressor: Compatible with the eco-friendly refrigerant R290, achieving dual breakthroughs in energy efficiency improvement and carbon emission reduction.
- 2-in-1 Integrated Compressor: Incorporates PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) functionality through an innovative membrane heating structure, providing a novel solution for vehicle lightweighting and system integration.
- High-Voltage High-Integration Compressor: Significantly optimizes heating and cooling efficiency while reducing charging time, serving as a reliable “thermal management heart” for next-generation high-performance electric vehicles.
International Thermal Systems highlighted three key innovative technologies:
- High-Performance Thermal Management Integrated Module: Supports ultra-fast charging technology by effectively addressing heat dissipation challenges during rapid charging of electric vehicles.
- Compact R290 HVAC Assembly: Features a combined fan design to save space and weight. It incorporates refrigerant isolation and valve optimization technologies to reduce noise and vibration, balance cabin temperature, and enhance driving comfort and safety.
- Multi-functional “444” HVAC System: Adopts a centralized integrated design, equipped with a fragrance interface, and supports independent temperature control for different zones to meet personalized comfort requirements.
Upon their debut, the innovative exhibits from the two subsidiaries instantly became the focal point of the event. The booths attracted a continuous stream of industry professionals, including numerous partners such as leading domestic and international new energy vehicle manufacturers, traditional OEMs, and component suppliers. Attendees engaged in in-depth discussions regarding technical specifications and potential collaboration opportunities, jointly contributing to the advancement of thermal management technology.
Moving forward, Aotecar will continue to prioritize its innovation-driven development strategy as its core guiding principle. The company aims to seize the opportunities presented by the industry’s transformation toward intelligent and electric vehicles, while persistently advancing cutting-edge technology research, development, and industrial application. By integrating the technological strengths of its subsidiaries, Aotecar is committed to providing global customers with more competitive and sustainable thermal management solutions. This will further strengthen Aotecar’s technological leadership in the global market and provide essential technical support for the high-quality development of China’s new energy vehicle industry and the worldwide transition to green mobility.
