SINOTRUK Huanghe Tractor Truck Drives on Side Road of Yellow River

SINOTRUK Huanghe Heavy Truck

There is no better response than the Huanghe heavy truck driving on both sides of the Yellow River!

 

On the Sanmenxia-Yan'an section of the Huanghe heavy truck traceability journey, I finally understand why everyone calls the Yellow River nine bends and eighteen bends. Starting from Sanmenxia, the hills and mountains all the way to Yan'an on the Loess Plateau, although the mileage is only more than 500 kilometers, the rising altitude and the winding Yellow River frequently appearing around the Yellow River heavy trucks have made everyone feel that the Yellow River heavy trucks are facing It is the most challenging section since departure.

 

Starting from Sanmenxia, the Yellow River convoy traveled upstream along the Yellow River and quickly left Henan to enter Linfen, Shanxi. This section of the road is a typical mountainous and hilly section. Although there is no obvious steep slope, it is also a continuous tunnel, elevated, and winding road. The road conditions have also changed from the previous four-lane in the plain area to a narrower two-lane, which will test the stability of the power output of the Yellow River heavy trucks and the acceleration ability at critical moments.

There are 4 Yellow River heavy trucks traveling with the Yellow River heavy-duty trucks, and their configurations are also different. The eye-catching performance is the top-of-the-line heavy truck in this trip. The 6X4 Yellow River heavy truck with a total weight of 49 tons and 570 horsepower. The most direct experience I experienced along the way is that it is efficient and smooth, leading the way-very cool!

 

Especially the overtaking performance, the Yellow River heavy truck brings amazing feelings. In the past car following experience, we also frequently encountered hill-climbing sections. The common operation of the driver will drive the car to the right or enter the hill-climbing lane, and slowly climb up. The driver’s feedback is that the engine is sluggish and the driving experience is not good. Downshifting frequently, stepping on the accelerator, and the transportation time is not high.

The Huanghe heavy truck relies on the MC13H.57-61 engine, the independent 2.0 version AMT transmission and the 2.71 low-speed rear axle to easily achieve high speeds with the combination of high horsepower and low speed ratio. In the same climbing section, the same condition that the total weight of the truck and cargo is close to 49T, the engine speed of the Yellow River heavy truck will start to increase after entering the ramp. When it is less than 1300rpm, the AMT gearbox display jumps directly from 16 to With 14 gears, downshifts and torque increase feedback are fast, and you can clearly feel the roar of the engine under your feet, the vehicle speeds up obviously, and the engine gearbox is perfectly matched throughout the overtaking process, which is smooth and smooth.

This is due to the high-power engine output of Sinotruk's 570 horsepower and the 16-speed 2.0 version of the autonomous AMT. Especially this gearbox, compared with the common 12-speed AMT, Sinotruk’s AMT power connection is more active and smooth, with accurate transmission and higher efficiency. Regardless of whether it is on flat roads or climbing hills, Sinotruk AMT can automatically select the appropriate gear, so that the engine always works in the economic fuel consumption area, allowing the vehicle to achieve high efficiency while achieving better fuel economy. Of course, it is also very important to allow the driver to focus more on driving and achieve more precise and safe control.

The high-efficiency combined powertrain that leads the way all the way allows the Yellow River heavy trucks to easily shuttle between the banks of the Jiuqu Yellow River, like the Hukou Waterfall that passed by that day, and the team arrived in the old revolutionary area of Yan'an one hour earlier than planned.

Yan'an is located in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, where the culture of the Yellow River and the spirit of Yan'an meet, and the appearance of the Yellow River heavy trucks is an excellent interpretation of the intersection of the two.

This year is the 90th anniversary of the establishment of Sinotruk, and the 60th anniversary of the birth of Yellow River Heavy Truck. Sixty years ago, my country's first heavy-duty truck, the Huanghe brand JN150 8-ton truck, rolled off the production line, ending the history of my country's inability to produce heavy-duty vehicles. At that time, the birth of the Yellow River heavy truck was commendable. New China was in a difficult economic period. The older generation of heavy truck people took the initiative to ask for it without any investment and large-scale professional equipment. With enthusiasm, tenacious will and superb craftsmanship, after 4 and a half months Through hard work, the Yellow River heavy truck was created.

 

The spirit of the Yellow River people embodied by the Yellow River Automobile has also been commended by Chairman Mao and praised and written by Chairman Zhu De. Sinotruk has not forgotten its original aspirations. From "Yellow River" to "Steyr", from "Howo" and "Shandica" to the new "Yellow River", it has always been the inheritor of the Yellow River spirit of "pushing forward and striving for self-improvement" , Practitioners, this is also in the same line with the entrepreneurial spirit of self-reliance and hard work in the Yan'an spirit.

Nowadays, when the times need it most, Yellow River heavy-duty trucks are reborn, carrying the banner of China's high-end heavy-duty trucks, rushing to the forefront of the market, setting a new benchmark for China's high-end heavy-duty truck market, and leading the domestic heavy-duty truck industry to world-class. For the "Yellow River", this journey of traceability is even more a trace of its growth and growth. In a sense, this event should be more like a spiritual journey.

 

The endless waves of the Yellow River, the struggle is not limited to the people of Sinotruk. The Yellow River heavy truck traceability journey will continue to run upwards. Nine bends and eighteen bends witness the strength of the Yellow River heavy trucks. See you next time.
