EZGO, Autotrax.ai, and Zhejiang Hengyuan Partner to Build U.S.-Assembled Autonomous Vehicle Platform

May 19, 2026
EZGO Technologies has signed a three-party agreement with Autotrax.ai and Zhejiang Hengyuan Machinery to develop a U.S.-assembled autonomous commercial vehicle platform integrating lithium battery, vehicle control, and iChassis technologies.

EZGO Technologies has signed a three-party strategic framework agreement with Autotrax.ai and Zhejiang Hengyuan Machinery to build a U.S.-assembled autonomous vehicle platform integrating lithium battery, smart vehicle control, and iChassis technologies, announced in a press release.

Under the agreement, the companies will combine their respective expertise: EZGO will contribute its lithium battery pack manufacturing and intelligent vehicle control systems, Zhejiang Hengyuan will provide its patented iChassis wire-controlled chassis platform, and Autotrax.ai will handle local assembly and autonomous driving integration at its California facility.

The alliance plans to launch all-weather autonomous logistics commercial vehicles in the U.S. market during the first half of 2027. These vehicles will target commercial logistics and intelligent transportation applications across North America.

EZGO also intends to make a strategic equity investment in Autotrax.ai, with details to be finalized in a definitive agreement. The investment will support expansion of Autotrax.ai’s California assembly line, lithium battery testing capabilities, and compliance restructuring for potential future capital markets participation.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
