Forthing Ushers in a New Era of Smart Safety with EMB Braking Technology in the All-New Forthing V9

2025-05-12

In the fast-evolving era of intelligent and electrified vehicles, technological innovation is emerging as the driving force for industry transformation. Demonstrating its commitment to leading this transformation, Forthing has jointly developed with Suzhou Coordinate Smart Technology Co., Ltd. the world’s first plug-in hybrid Mpv equipped with an EMB (Electro-Mechanical Braking) system — the all-newForthing V9. This milestone model not only features the award-winning Mach Hybrid powertrain — recognized among the “Top 10 Global Hybrid Systems” — but also redefines driving with a remarkable blend of safety, comfort, and driving pleasure.

EMB Technology: Intelligent Braking for Safer Mobility
As the Automotive industry advances toward high-level autonomous driving, conventional hydraulic braking systems are proving inadequate. The EMB system introduces a fully electronic braking solution, eliminating traditional hydraulic components in favor of precision-controlled electric motors that drive the brake actuators directly. This "smart co-pilot" of the braking world ensuresfaster response, enhanced accuracy, and superior energy recovery, marking a major leap in brake-by-wire innovation.

Forthing, in partnership with Coordinate, takes the lead by integrating this cutting-edge EMB system into the Forthing V9 — a premium intelligent MPV. This collaboration not only reflects Forthing’s strategic foresight in intelligent chassis technologies but also underlines its dedication to embracing innovation and driving the evolution of the smart mobility ecosystem.

Precision Braking: 2.62 Meters That Make All the Difference

The EMB system’s precise motor-driven control of brake calipers allows the Forthing V9 to outperform comparable models with traditional EHB systems. Emergency braking distances are reduced by an impressive 2.62 meters, offering families enhanced peace of mind in daily commutes and unexpected traffic scenarios. Whether descending steep inclines or navigating icy roads, the Forthing V9’s all-wheel parking brake ensures the vehicle remains stable and secure, delivering the confidence to stop and start at will — a reflection of balance and control in life’s demanding moments.

Comfort Redefined: Smoother, Quieter, Smarter

Traditional emergency braking often brings harsh noise and jarring vibration. The Forthing V9’s EMB system decouples the brake pedal from the actuation mechanism, utilizing intelligent algorithms and four individual motors to deliver smoother, quieter braking, with noise reduced by more than 10dB. Whether on winding mountain roads or suburban getaways, the Forthing V9 ensures a tranquil experience for all passengers — even sleeping infants in the back seat.

During sudden stops, the EMB system prevents harsh jolts, enhancing ride comfort across all road conditions. With its agile “compass-turn” and “pendulum-style parking” capabilities, the Forthing V9 makes navigating tight spaces effortless — helping even novice drivers park like professionals.

Driving Pleasure Meets Responsibility

The Forthing V9 is more than a responsible family vehicle — it's also an MPV that embraces the joy of driving. With intelligent drift control powered by the EMB system, drivers can enjoy dynamic driving experiences while maintaining full control. By actively adjusting rear-wheel braking based on yaw rate targets, the system provides agile maneuverability and unexpected fun, even in an MPV.

When combined with steer-by-wire systems, the EMB enables precise directional correction on mixed road surfaces like partial ice and asphalt — offering the freedom of hands-off steering while keeping the vehicle on track. This thoughtful balance of intervention and autonomy echoes the wisdom of those who value both control and spontaneity.

Dual Excellence: EMB + Mach Hybrid Power

As a flagship MPV from Forthing, the Forthing V9 also benefits from the high-efficiency Mach Hybrid system, delivering industry-leading thermal efficiency of 45.18%, a CLTC range of up to 1300 km, and a fuel consumption as low as 5.27L/100km in charge-depleted mode. With a 97% motor efficiency achieved through advanced oil-cooled flat wire motors, the powertrain delivers strong, responsive acceleration while minimizing energy waste.

This powerful combination of EMB and Mach Hybrid technologies not only sets new safety and performance standards for MPVs but also represents Forthing’s pursuit of delivering smart, reliable, and efficient mobility solutions. Backed by the robust technological heritage of Dongfeng Motor Corporation, Forthing continues to push boundaries in intelligent vehicle development.

As innovation propels the automotive landscape forward, Forthing remains committed to providing world-class vehicles that meet the evolving needs of global consumers — advancing the global influence of Chinese automotive brands.
