Detailed Description
This HOWO TX 400HP 6x4 typically pairs a WP12 (或同级) 400HP engine or equivalent (engine examples: WP12S400E201 / D12 variants) with a heavy-duty gearbox such as HW19710/HW18710, delivering 400 HP (~298.28 kW) and ample torque for loaded starts and sustained climbs. The driveline and dual rear axles (6x4) provide excellent traction and load distribution, supporting gross train and trailer combinations commonly in the 25–40 tonne range depending on axle ratios and spec.
The chassis offers practical capacity options: fuel tanks up to 400L (single) or 400L+400L (dual) for extended range, reinforced multi-leaf suspension for heavy loads, and tire choices (e.g., 12.00R20 or 295/80R22.5) tailored to road/engineering use. Configurable cabin and accessory packs (ABS, reinforced bumper, optional inter-cooler protection, selectable seats, air-conditioning, fire extinguisher, towing hooks) make it a flexible prime mover for fleet buyers seeking durability, high uptime, and customizable specs.
