Sinotruk HOWO 6x4 tractor with a 400HP WP12 Euro II engine and customer-specified colour.
Overview
What This Trailer Is Built For
The 400HP version of the HOWO 6x4 tractor, built around a WP12.400E201 diesel engine to Euro II emission standard with an HC16 transmission and VGD95 driving axle. Bosch steering, 12.00R20 rims and tires and a 400L fuel tank complete the package, and the cab colour is finished to the customer's specification. It is the value choice where routes are mostly flat or moderately graded and the extra reserve of a 430HP unit is not needed every day.
Key Benefits
What You Get
- 400HP WP12 engine covers normal semi-trailer haulage at lower purchase and running cost than a 430HP unit

- HC16 transmission and VGD95 driving axle share parts with the rest of the HOWO range
- 400L fuel tank keeps refuelling stops down on long runs
- Cab colour finished to your fleet livery at the factory

Comparison
How It Compares
| Compared With | How This Model Differs |
|---|---|
| HOWO 430HP tractor | 400HP is enough for flat and moderate routes at lower cost; 430HP gives reserve for heavy loads and steep grades. |
| Euro V tractor | Euro II tolerates the fuel quality found in many export markets; Euro V is required where emission rules are enforced. |
| Second-hand tractor | A new unit comes with a warranty, matched trailer connections and a documented specification for import. |

How Large Is the Fuel Tank
400 litres.
Can You Supply a Matching Trailer
