Newbase Z5: Revolutionizing Logistics with 50% Cost Reduction and L4 Autonomous Precision

"Half the Cost": A Paradigm Shift in Logistics Value
 
1. The Benchmark for Cost Reduction in Express Delivery
 
Compared to the traditional “Vehicle + Courier” model, the Newbase Z5 slashes labor and operational costs by 50%. Even during torrential rains, the Z5 maintains full attendance. It serves as a Low-cost autonomous delivery fleet for SMEs, allowing small and medium enterprises to handle 5,000 parcels daily with just three vehicles, effectively decoupling efficiency from human labor constraints.
 
2. An “Affordable Alternative” for Industrial Logistics
 
Leveraging L4 autonomous driving, the Z5 functions as a robust Outdoor driverless AGV for industrial campus environments. It facilitates 50-meter cross-factory transfers of semi-finished products, preventing material scrap due to weather and reducing manual handling damage—positioning itself as the ideal Unmanned heavy-duty parcel shuttle for B2B operations.
 
3. “Breaking Price Barriers” in the Cold Chain Segment
 
The Newbase Z5 autonomous cold chain vehicle is priced significantly lower than traditional 200,000 RMB-class refrigerated trucks. Its “cab-less” design and AI-driven thermal management offer a budget-friendly entry for SMEs while meeting rigorous pharmaceutical standards.
 
Newbase L4 Level Autonomous Driving Vehicle
 
"Hardcore Tech": The Gold Standard for L4 Safety & Intelligence
 
1. Global Certification and Competitive Recognition
The Z5 is among the first to receive the TÜV Rheinland L4 certification. As a high-performance Autonomous Logistics Vehicle with dual Orin-X chips, it utilizes 4 LiDARs and 14 cameras to achieve a 300m perception range and 12 million kilometers of accident-free operation.
 
2. “Intelligent Decision-Making” in Complex Scenarios
Powered by a Transformer backbone, the system features an inference latency of ≤50ms. Its efficiency in U-turns and complex intersections is 65% higher than the industry average, defining the new safety standard for urban delivery.
 
A Benchmark for Green Logistics
 
Each Z5 reduces CO₂ emissions by approximately 10kg per day, totaling an annual reduction of 12,000 tons. Recognized as a “Typical Case for Low-Carbon Distribution,” it is the premier Green logistics autonomous vehicle for carbon reduction, helping global clients hit their "Dual Carbon" ESG goals.
 
Flexible Customization: The Newbase Z5 Advantage
 
1. Pharma Cold Chain: Precision & Compliance
For a Top 5 global pharma firm, Newbase provided a solution with dual EU GDP and China GSP certification. Featuring ±0.5°C precision and a 70% reduction in transport vibration, it ensures the safe delivery of vaccines and biologics across Europe.
 
2. Retail B2B: Brand-Scene Synergy
In Southeast Asia, the Z5 serves as a “Mobile Showroom” for supermarket chains. With custom branding, transparent LED screens, and smart modular shelving, daily store coverage increased from 8 to 15 stores per vehicle, leading to follow-up orders of over 500 units.
