HOWO 8x4 371 HP Dump Truck Shipped to Zambia

This batch of HOWO dump trucks, destined for Zambia, is equipped with the classic WD615 371-horsepower Euro II engine—striking an optimal balance between dynamic performance and the unique operating conditions of the African continent.

Notably, the engine demonstrates exceptional chemical tolerance toward local Zambian fuel quality, effectively preventing power derating caused by the poisoning of the exhaust after-treatment system.

The 371-horsepower output, paired with a Fast 10-speed transmission featuring an auxiliary gearbox, unleashes astonishing torque even at low RPMs—thereby ensuring the vehicle possesses exceptional self-extrication capabilities within the muddy overburden stripping areas of Zambia's copper mines during the rainy season.

It features an 8+8mm double-layer, high-tensile alloy steel chassis frame, formed as a single piece via integral stamping. The chassis frame demonstrates exceptional deformation recovery capabilities, enabling it to withstand the instantaneous impact stresses generated when large excavators dump copper ore weighing several tons.

Q: Zambia is a landlocked country; how does Aorun ensure the safe delivery of this batch of HOWO 8x4 dump trucks?

A: We possess a highly mature multimodal logistics network. When the vehicles depart from major Chinese ports, Aorun strictly adheres to "Roll-on/Roll-off" (Ro-Ro) vessel standards, ensuring that no vehicles are ever stowed on the open deck; furthermore, every vehicle is treated with a protective anti-corrosion wax coating prior to loading.

The cargo vessels typically dock at the Port of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania or the Port of Beira in Mozambique. Following customs clearance at the port of arrival, a professional fleet of international drivers—long-term partners of Aorun—takes over. They drive the vehicles directly across the border (via the Tunduma or Chirundu crossings) using the "drive-away" method, handling final customs clearance and delivery either in Lusaka or at the specific mining site designated by the client.Q: If it is inconvenient for us to visit the factory in Liangshan, Shandong, in person to inspect the vehicles, how can we ensure the quality of the pre-delivery preparation for this batch of 371-horsepower trucks?

A: You are welcome to visit any of Aorun’s regional hubs—our Business Center in Guangzhou, our office in Yiwu, or our branch in Jinan—whichever is most convenient for you. Our team will utilize large-screen displays to establish a real-time, high-definition video link directly to our modern assembly and preparation facility in Liangshan, ensuring a seamless connection regardless of time zones. A dedicated sales engineer will guide you through a 3D interactive inspection, bringing the camera right up close to every critical detail—including engine serial numbers, chassis wiring harnesses, cargo box weld seams, and PTO valves—to ensure that you feel just as confident and reassured as if you were standing right next to the vehicle in person.

Q: Are spare parts for HOWO heavy-duty trucks readily available locally in Zambia?

A: HOWO is, without question, the brand with the largest installed base among Chinese heavy-duty trucks in Zambia—and indeed across the entire Southern African region. In Lusaka, Kitwe, or at spare parts shops located along major highways, components such as filters, brake pads, drive belts, and high-pressure fuel pump parts for the 371-horsepower engine are widely available. Consequently, maintenance and repair costs are remarkably low. Furthermore, Aorun provides a complimentary "on-board spare parts kit" containing a selection of high-frequency, fast-wearing original components packed with each vehicle, ensuring that your fleet can seamlessly enter service and begin operations the moment it arrives on-site.
