About Shaanxi Fast Auto Drive Group

Shaanxi Fast Auto Drive Group, known by its FAST brand, is a Chinese manufacturer of commercial-vehicle driveline systems with plants in Xi'an, Baoji and Xianyang in Shaanxi province. It is regarded as the world's largest producer of manual transmissions for heavy-duty trucks, and its official website presents a product matrix covering light, medium and heavy trucks and buses across MT, AMT and AT technology routes, plus clutches and power take-offs.

Beyond the classic gearbox, the group has expanded into active safety (retarders, disc brakes and electronic braking systems), new-energy drivelines — including oil-cooled flat-wire motors and 800V silicon-carbide power electronics under the Lanchi series — transmissions for construction and agricultural machinery, intelligent driving systems for commercial vehicles, and high-precision gears for sectors such as wind power and aerospace.

FAST also presents itself as a smart-manufacturing pioneer in China's commercial-vehicle components industry, applying Industry 4.0 concepts, digital twins and lights-out production, including a zero-carbon factory. Its transmissions equip most Chinese truck makers and are exported to many markets, making it a structural supplier to the global heavy-vehicle chain.
