For large-scale operations, the transition from 6x4 to 8x4 is a move toward superior efficiency and stability:
Optimized Payload-to-Trip Ratio: The 8x4 chassis supports cargo boxes with volumes ranging from 25m³ to 45m³. This allows for significantly more material per trip, reducing fuel consumption and labor costs per ton.
Superior Weight Distribution: Spreading the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) across four axles prevents axle overloading and reduces ground pressure, allowing for stable operation on soft soil and unpaved mining roads.
Dual-Front Steering Precision: The double-steering front axles provide exceptional maneuverability and a tighter turning radius, allowing this massive vehicle to navigate cramped construction sites with ease.
The HOWO 8x4 utilizes a cold-pressed, reinforced "U" type chassis. This architecture provides the torsional rigidity necessary to handle the stress of "uneven dumping" and the high-impact loading of massive rocks and ores, ensuring a service life that exceeds industry standards.
The WD615 series engine is the most widely supported engine in the global export market. Its mechanical fuel system is highly resilient to variable fuel quality, making it the perfect engine for operations in Africa, Central Asia, and Southeast Asia where high-tech electronic engines may face maintenance challenges.
Safety directly correlates to uptime. The HW76 cabin offers:
Reinforced Steel Shell: High-strength crash protection.
Climate Control: High-capacity AC systems for operator comfort in 50°C heat.
Enhanced Visibility: A comprehensive mirror array to eliminate blind spots on busy sites.
Large-Scale Open-Pit Mining: The primary mover for coal, iron ore, and overburden.
Mega-Infrastructure: Ideal for airport runway construction and trans-continental highway building.
Urban Demolition: Efficiently clearing massive amounts of reinforced concrete and industrial waste.
Bulk Material Supply: The most cost-effective way to move sand and gravel from quarries to city hubs.
The Liangshan Aurun Edge: Your Trusted Exporter

Custom Cargo Engineering: We customize the thickness and material (Manganese or AR steel) of the cargo box based on your specific material density.
One-Stop Global Logistics: We manage the entire chain from China’s major ports (Qingdao, Tianjin) to your doorstep, handling all customs and shipping complexities.
Bespoke Refurbishment: Our used HOWO 8x4 units are "factory-refreshed" with new tires, new cabins, and fully serviced drivetrains to provide new-truck performance at a competitive price.
FAQ: Expert Insights for Buyers
Q: Can the HOWO 8x4 handle 50 tons of payload? A: Yes. While official road ratings vary, the reinforced 8x4 chassis and AC16 axles are physically engineered for total weights (GVW) of up to 50-60 tons in off-road mining conditions.
Q: Is the 8x4 better than the 6x4 for fuel economy? A: On a "per ton" basis, the 8x4 is more efficient because it moves more material per trip, reducing the total number of engine hours required for a project.

How do you guarantee the quality and reliability of your vehicles to adapt to our local market environment and harsh operating conditions?
We ensure the global adaptability of our products through a triple system:
Source Quality Control: Our factory is equipped with advanced testing equipment and implements full-process quality management. Core components are sourced from well-known domestic and international brands, ensuring fundamental reliability from the source.
Localized Verification and Customization: With over ten years of experience serving the Asia, Africa, and Middle East markets, we have a deep understanding of the challenges posed by high temperatures, dusty environments, and complex road conditions. We can tailor and enhance the cooling system, chassis protection, and tire configuration to suit your specific local environment.
Rigorous Factory Testing: Every vehicle undergoes rigorous comprehensive performance testing and road testing before leaving the factory, ensuring it meets design standards and predetermined operating conditions before actual delivery.
In addition to standard models, can you provide customized modification solutions based on our specific transportation needs, climate, or road conditions?
Absolutely. Customization is one of our core strengths.
Our professional engineering team can provide in-depth modification solutions based on your specific business scenarios (such as mineral transportation, logistics distribution, engineering construction, etc.), local regulations, and special climates (such as extremely cold or tropical regions). This includes, but is not limited to: changing the chassis structural strength, adjusting the cargo box/tank material and capacity, upgrading the cooling/insulation system, adapting special tires or suspension, and adding safety equipment that complies with local regulations. Please provide your specific requirements, and we will provide you with a tailor-made solution and drawing confirmation.
In terms of price and overall cost-effectiveness, what are your core advantages compared to other suppliers?
Our core advantage lies in offering a superior Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), not just an initial purchase price. This is reflected in:
