I. Model Positioning and Core Advantages
As an economically complementary model to the Sinotruk HOWO series, the HOHAN 8x4 dump truck shares Sinotruk's mature three-engine technology platform, but offers a more competitive price, focusing on a market positioning of "high performance, low investment, and high return." Its core advantages are:
Worry-free Heavy Load: The 8x4 (four front, eight rear) drive configuration adapts to 50-ton heavy-duty transportation needs.
Strong Adaptability to Working Conditions: The robust chassis and good passability allow for stable operation in harsh road conditions such as mud, steep slopes, and mines.
Outstanding Economy: Excellent fuel economy, low maintenance costs, and a fast payback period.
Flexible configuration: Offers a variety of horsepower, emission standards, and cargo box sizes to meet different regional and operational needs.
II. Core Technical Parameters (Mainstream Models)
1. Chassis and Powertrain
Drive Type: 8x4 (Four-axle, front dual-axle steering, rear dual-axle drive)
Engine: Mainstream equipped with WD615.47 inline six-cylinder diesel engine, 371 hp (273 kW), maximum torque 1500 N·m; 350-420 hp models are optional.
Emission Standards: Covers Euro II to Euro V, adaptable to different global market regulations.
Transmission: HW19710 ten-speed manual transmission (10 forward gears + 2 reverse gears), smooth shifting, strong torque capacity.
Axles: 9.5-ton dual front axles, 16-ton dual rear axles, robust load-bearing capacity.
Tires: Standard 12.00R20 steel radial tires, 12 tires in total (including 1 spare tire), wear-resistant and durable.
2. Upper Structure and Load Capacity
Cargo Box Dimensions: Mainstream specifications 7300×2300×1500mm (Length×Width×Height), volume approximately 25 cubic meters
Cargo Box Material: High-strength wear-resistant steel plate, reinforced with a grid structure, impact-resistant and wear-resistant
Lifting Method: Front-mounted hydraulic top cylinder, stable and fast lifting, clean and thorough unloading
Rated Load Capacity: Standard load 32 tons, maximum heavy load up to 50 tons
Overall Vehicle Dimensions: Approximately 11145×2496×3450mm
III. Cab and Driving Experience
The Howo 8x4 adopts an H77L wide-body single-sleeper cab, balancing practicality and comfort:
Interior Configuration: Standard MP5 player Multimedia system, air conditioning, and air-suspended shock-absorbing seats effectively reduce fatigue during long-distance driving.
Visibility design: Large windshield and multiple rearview mirrors minimize blind spots, enhancing safety during construction site operations.
Space layout: Spacious interior with ample storage space, supporting single-person rest during long-distance work.
Handling: Light power steering and moderate shift throw reduce fatigue during long drives.
IV. Applicable Scenarios
Mining/Quarries: Transporting ore, coal, and earthwork; suitable for unpaved roads and steep slopes.
Infrastructure projects: High-speed rail, highway, and real estate construction sites; transferring sand, cement, and construction waste.
Urban waste transportation: Compliant urban waste transportation; excellent sealing and spill prevention.
Long-distance building material transportation: Cross-provincial transportation of heavy-duty goods such as steel and sand; high efficiency and low cost.
