The SAIC Hongyan Jiehu H6 360HP 8X4 5.6m Dump Truck is built to excel in urban-focused heavy tasks—think municipal construction, village renovation waste transport, and short-haul gravel delivery—where power needs to balance with maneuverability. Under the hood, it features a Weichai WP9H360E62 diesel engine, cranking out 360 horsepower and 1500 N·m of torque at 1200-1600 rpm. This torque band is perfect for frequent stop-start city driving and climbing mild slopes with partial to full loads, without wasting fuel on excessive power. Paired with a Fast 10JSD160T 10-speed manual transmission (known for smooth shifts in tight job sites) and an 8X4 drive system, plus a 5.286 rear axle ratio, the truck maintains steady traction even on uneven urban roads or temporary construction paths—no more struggling with slippery surfaces during morning waste runs.​

What makes this Jiehu H6 stand out for urban use is its 5.6m×2.3m×1.45m dump body—compact enough to navigate narrow alleyways or small construction yards, yet spacious enough to handle 14.8 tons of rated payload (with a 31-ton Gross Vehicle Weight). The body is made from Q550 high-wear steel, which holds up to daily scrap metal or wet soil hauls without rusting quickly, and its hydraulic lifting system takes just 25 seconds to raise fully—speeding up load dumps at transfer stations. Underneath, the truck uses a lightweight yet strong single-layer frame (260×80×10mm) made from high-strength alloy steel, cutting unnecessary weight to boost fuel efficiency while still supporting heavy loads. It also has a 9/9/11-leaf spring suspension that soaks up bumps from potholed city roads, protecting the cargo and reducing wear on the chassis.​

For fleet owners watching operational costs, the Jiehu H6 delivers tangible savings. Its 400L fuel tank lets it handle a full day of urban runs (usually 8-10 trips) without refueling, and the Weichai engine’s smart fuel injection system keeps average fuel consumption around 28L per 100km—3% lower than similar 360HP urban dump trucks. Maintenance is also hassle-free: the engine uses long-life engine oil (15,000km between changes) and key parts like the air filter are easy to access from the side of the truck, cutting service time. Inside the cab, it’s designed for daily short-haul comfort: a height-adjustable steering wheel, USB fast-charging ports, and a small storage compartment for tools or lunch—little touches that make long days of frequent stops feel less tiring. Plus, a rearview camera with night vision helps with parking in tight transfer yards after dark, adding an extra layer of safety.​
