    DB Schenker Launches China-Europe Truck Solution for NEV Battery Imports - A New Route for The Cross-border Transportation of NEV Batteries

    In recent years, the transportation demand for NEV battery products by major automotive OEMs and parts suppliers has significantly grown with the rapid development of the NEV market in both China and Europe.

    In recent years, the transportation demand for NEV battery products by major automotive OEMs and parts suppliers has significantly grown with the rapid development of the NEV market in both China and Europe. The increase in demand has therefore led to the urgent need for flexible and efficient logistics services. Due to the extremely strict transportation requirements, safe and reliable logistic solutions are also crucial for the cross-border transportation of these NEV batteries.

    With an extensive network across the world and logistics expertise, DB Schenker has launched an innovative solution for NEV battery imports via the highway between China and Europe. The solution aligns with our innovation-driven philosophy of continuously providing customers with professional solutions. This marks the opening of a new route for NEV battery imports from Europe via land transportation.

    On August 15, two trucks transporting a total of 40 tons of NEV lithium batteries from Poland successfully arrived in Chengdu, Sichuan. This achievement marked the launch of a door-to-door, one-stop cold chain transport solution for NEV battery products operated entirely by trucks. In addition to ocean and air freight, land transportation has now become an alternative for cross-border NEV battery imports from Europe to China. Notably, this batch of temperature-sensitive goods had also passed through many European countries after being picked up in Poland on July 21 and finishing import declarations at the Alashankou Port in Xinjiang on August 5. This has been the first China-Europe highway transportation of lithium battery imports through the Alashankou Port and the entire highway line in Xinjiang since the normalization of pandemic prevention and control restrictions.
