Use Cases
This tractor head excels in long-haul freight and intercity container transport, pairing the 480HP engine with AMT/manual transmissions to tow heavy semi-trailers at highway speeds. It’s also commonly used as a prime mover for refrigerated trailers, flatbeds, and bulk carriers where consistent tractive performance and customization (axle ratio, suspension, coupling) are required.

Detailed Description
Engine & Drivetrain — built for power and economy. The G7 480HP typically uses a 12.4L inline-6 (MC13 series / MAN-based) diesel producing ~480 hp and peak torque in the 2,000–2,300 Nm range, paired with 12–16 speed AMT or manual gearboxes for wide torque spread and good fuel consumption for long routes. High torque, Euro-5 compliance (where specified) and an efficient driveline reduce total operating cost.
Payload, towing and capacity — engineered for hauling. A typical 4x2 G7 tractor head has a curb weight around 6.8–8.8 tonnes and rated traction/total tow mass commonly listed near ~35 tonnes (traction mass) for standard 4x2 configurations; payload and trailer capacity depend on trailer type and local regulations. The G7 platform supports heavy combinations and can be customized (gear ratio, fifth-wheel height, dual tanks) to increase usable towing range and payload efficiency for your operation. Customizable payload setup, optimized axle ratio, dual fuel tanks available.
