FMD Takes On Foton EV brand In VIC + SA

Foton Mobility Distribution (FMD) has announced a significant strategic shift for the Foton EV truck brand in Victoria and South Australia.

Effective September 1, 2025, FMD will assume full responsibility for the sales and after-sales operations of Foton EV trucks in both states.

This transition marks the conclusion of the current distribution arrangement with Sustainable Vehicle Solutions (SVS) and is aimed at strengthening FMD’s direct connection with customers while supporting the continued expansion of the Foton EV brand across Australia.

Neil Wang, CEO and Founder of Foton Mobility Distribution, says “We greatly value the work SVS has done in establishing the Foton brand over the past two years. As we look to the future, we’re excited to engage more directly with our customers in Victoria and South Australia – two of the fastest-growing markets for electric commercial vehicles.”

CMV Group Joint Managing Director, Miles Crawford, adds: “We recognise the role SVS has played in introducing light-duty electric trucks to the market and supporting customers in the transition to EV transport solutions across Victoria and South Australia.

“As the electric commercial vehicle market continues to evolve, we support FMD’s decision to engage directly with customers and are committed to ensuring a smooth and professional transition.”

The CMV Group, parent company of SVS, remains committed to delivering world-class transport solutions, including electric vehicles and will collaborate closely with FMD to ensure a smooth and professional transition over the coming weeks.

Together, both organisations remain committed to supporting the shift toward cleaner, more sustainable transport solutions across Australia.

Foton Mobility Distribution’s strategic realignment reflects its ongoing commitment to leadership in the zero-emissions commercial vehicle sector and reinforces its goal to deliver sustainable transport solutions nationwide.
