The SINOTRUK HOWO V7-X 400HP 8×4 Dump Truck belongs to the HOWO V7-X series, designed to meet the needs of construction works, ground leveling, material transportation, and mining operations. Let’s explore the all-new exterior and features of this dump truck.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
The V7G is a perfect combination of the HW76 and A7 cabins — retaining the strength and durability of traditional HOWO trucks while embracing the modern styling of the HOWO A7 series.
- The truck’s front grille is not only beautifully designed but also blends distinctive styling elements, highlighted by the SINOTRUK logo. This creates a luxurious and unique appearance, reflecting the premium quality of this vehicle line.
- The front bumper is higher, providing better clearance when driving through narrow or construction routes.
- The front lighting cluster includes low beam, high beam, turn signal, and fog lights — all using durable and reliable halogen bulbs for stable illumination.
- Additional inner and outer door trims are designed with stylish accents that enhance the overall aesthetics of the vehicle’s lines.
- The cabin step cover is fully enclosed, keeping the cabin clean and preventing shoes or slippers from slipping off while getting in or out.
- The auxiliary side mirror of the V7G features a 5 cm wider frame, effectively reducing blind spots and improving visibility and safety.
INTERIOR DESIGN
The cabin is spacious, featuring a luxurious grey-toned interior, with a wide, unobstructed field of vision. It is fully equipped with essential functions such as exhaust brake, cruise control, axle lock, differential lock, and dump control switch, along with other standard dump truck features.
- The interior is elegantly designed, combining a sporty 4-spoke steering wheel.
- The driver’s seat is air-suspended, offering multiple adjustment modes for comfort.
