HONG KONG<\/span>, June 25, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — As cross-border trade volumes continue to grow, border crossings are evolving beyond traditional transit points into increasingly important logistics\u00a0hubs. Improving freight throughput, operational efficiency and multimodal connectivity<\/b> has become a key priority for operators seeking to support long-term trade growth.<\/p>\n

Autonomous transportation and AI-powered operations are emerging as important enablers of this transformation.<\/p>\n

Westwell combines Physical AI and Operational AI to create an integrated automation solution for cross-border logistics. <\/b>At the Physical AI level, autonomous Q-Chassis vehicles use AI-driven perception, planning and decision-making technologies to perform freight transportation tasks. At the Operational AI level, the WellFMS fleet management platform coordinates vehicles, checkpoints, yards and logistics resources through intelligent scheduling and real-time operational visibility.<\/p>\n

The solution has been deployed at major cross-border land ports handling bulk commodity transportation.<\/b><\/p>\n

At Ceke Port<\/b>, one of the largest land ports on the China-Mongolia border and a major gateway for bulk commodity trade, 23 hybrid autonomous Q-Chassis vehicles operate in temperatures as low as -32\u00b0C and under frequent sandstorm conditions. The vehicles transport loaded containers across the border, pass customs inspection checkpoints and return with empty containers in a continuous cycle. Supported by autonomous driving technology, high-definition mapping and intelligent fleet orchestration, the system enables stable unmanned operations in a challenging environment.<\/p>\n

According to Alashan Media Group, after Ceke Port’s implementation of modernization initiatives, including intelligent customs clearance, digital infrastructure upgrades and autonomous transportation, overall vehicle clearance time reduced approximately 40%.<\/b><\/p>\n

At Mandula Port, <\/b>a key China-Mongolia border crossing for coal and mineral transportation, autonomous vehicles have entered routine commercial operation within a multimodal freight network. Vehicles can pass customs checkpoints in less than 30 seconds<\/b>, while transportation time from loading to customs arrival has been reduced by nearly 60% <\/b>compared with conventional trucking operations, based on field measurements.<\/p>\n

According to Westwell’s operational data, autonomous transportation combined with intelligent fleet orchestration has improved cross-border logistics efficiency by more than three times<\/b> in certain scenarios. The deployment also reduces the need for drivers to repeatedly enter inspection areas, contributing to safer operations.<\/p>\n

The experience at Ceke and Mandula demonstrates how AI-powered transportation and intelligent operations management help border crossings increase throughput, strengthen connectivity and support higher-value logistics activity. Looking ahead,\u00a0Westwell will continue to leverage its “Ainergy (AI+new energy)” strategy<\/b>, combining AI and new energy technologies to support safer, greener and more efficient<\/b> cross-border logistics operations.<\/p>\n
