Use Cases
Common uses include heavy earthworks, quarry and mining haulage, and bulk road/building material transport where a durable tipper with large volume and high payload is required. The HOWO NX 8×4 is also a preferred choice for contractors who need a customizable dumper/tipper solution for site-specific boxes, tarpaulins or PTO equipment.

Detailed Description
Powertrain & performance — The HOWO NX 8×4 is offered with robust diesel engines in the 380–400 HP class (commonly WP12 or WD615 family depending on spec) paired with the HW19710 10F+2R transmission for strong gradeability and dependable low-speed torque for loaded climbs. Advantage: high horsepower for heavy loads.
Cargo body, capacity & payload — Typical cargo-body lengths range from ~6.2 m to 7.8 m (custom lengths available), giving cargo volumes commonly in the 21–30 m³ range (examples listed ~28.5 m³). For 8×4 heavy configurations, practical loading/payload is commonly marketed between ~40–60 tonnes (depending on local spec, body thickness and axle choice) — this truck is designed to be configured to meet higher payload needs within legal limits and client requirements. Advantage: large volume and heavy payload capability; fully customizable box size and thickness.
Chassis, axles, tires & build quality — The chassis uses heavy-section channel beams and reinforced mounting; front axles around 9–9.5 t and rear axles 16 t (double reduction options) are common on HOWO NX 8×4 tipper builds. Trucks are finished with durable paint, optional anti-corrosion coatings, radial 12.00–12R22.5 tires, heavy leaf-spring suspension and robust hydraulic tipping systems. ZW Group offers production QC, load testing and secure export packing for ocean/RO-RO shipping. Advantages: reinforced axles, tested load capacity, export packaging and quality control.
