 China Commercial Vehicle Show 2015 Succe
 The China Commercial Vehicle Show 2015 (CCVS 2015) came to a conclusion on 15th November, 2015 having at- tracted more than 300,000 visitors to the Wuhan Interna- tional Fair Center. Opened on 12th November, the show took up 6 halls, occupying an exhibition space of 60,000sq m.
The domestic commercial vehicle market is experiencing a slow- down, with the continued deceleration of the Chinese economy over the last 5 years. Last year, the Chinese commercial vehicle market dropped about 30 per cent, while the special purpose vehicle segment reported an 80-per cent loss in revenue. Fur- thermore, the Chinese commercial vehicle industry entered a crucial transition and upgrading period, and faced a lot of chal- lenges including over production, declining demand and export
difficulties. Despite this un- favourable scenario, CCVS managed to attract many exhibitors and visitors.
Dongfeng Motor Group occupied the entire B3 hall together with its com- mercial vehicle business units, including Dong- feng Commercial Vehicle, Dongfeng Special Com- mercial Vehicle, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor, DFSK Mo-
tor and Dongfeng Automobile, to showcase a range of their products. Other exhibitors in- cluded China FAW, Beijing Fo- ton Daimler Automotive, China National Heavy Duty Truck Group, Shaanxi Heavy Duty Automobile, Anhui Jianghuai Automobile, Yutong, China In- ternational Marine Containers (CIMC), Alcoa, BPW, to name a few.
Compared to the previous edition, CCVS 2015 attracted more coach and bus manufac- turers such as Yutong, Ankai Bus and Dongfeng Yangste, which made the show more complete. There was also an increase in the number of new energy vehicles displayed. The 25 units of new energy vehicles were mainly buses, logistic trucks and sanitation trucks from Foton Daimler, Yutong and Wuhan Bus Manu- facturing.
Meanwhile, only two Natu- ral Gas Vehicles (NGS) were found at the exhibition; the new Shaanxi Shacman M3000 6x2 prime mover and the 6x4 semi-trailer from Dongfeng Special Commercial Vehicle.
