Industry Context
As global environmental awareness grows and new energy technologies advance, electric compact equipment has emerged as a key trend in construction machinery. Yuchai has proactively responded by dedicating R&D resources to develop industry-leading electric solutions, with the YC S150 representing their flagship achievement.

Extreme Environment Validation
High-Temperature Testing
Yuchai's engineering team subjected the S150 to prolonged operation under scorching conditions. Despite extreme thermal stress on cooling systems - where overheating could trigger controller failures, battery limitations, or safety risks - the loader maintained stable operation through optimized thermal design, keeping coolant temperatures within safe parameters.

Arctic-Cold Testing
In sub-zero temperatures where conventional equipment struggles with startup issues and battery degradation, the S150 demonstrated resilience. Its advanced battery thermal management system ensured stable performance and sustained range, with field data confirming reliability in extreme cold.
