A Batch of HOWO TX Tractor Trucks Shipped to Kenya
date:2026-07-24
Recently, a batch of HOWO TX tractor trucks ordered by a Kenyan customer was successfully manufactured and shipped from our Jinan production base. The customer is a local logistics and transportation company in Kenya, primarily engaged in cross-border container transportation between Nairobi and Mombasa, as well as cross-regional cargo transfers between neighboring countries. They proactively contacted our company to express their purchasing intentions and specified clear requirements for the tractor trucks regarding long-distance continuous operation, adaptability to various road conditions, and fuel economy.
Upon receiving the order, our technical team adapted the HOWO TX tractor trucks to the actual operating environment in Kenya, which includes alternating highways and national roads, numerous slopes in some sections, and high humidity in coastal areas. In terms of power, they are equipped with Weichai WP series engines, balancing high torque at low speeds with economical fuel consumption, adapting to different needs for heavy-load starts and long-distance cruising; matched with Fast 9-speed or 12-speed heavy-duty transmissions, with reasonable gear ratios and smooth shifting; and combined with Sinotruk's mature double-stage reduction axle technology, enabling them to adapt to various road conditions and cross-border transportation scenarios. The cab features a high-roof extended cab design and an air-suspension seat, providing comfort suitable for long-distance driving. Furthermore, considering local maintenance and repair conditions in Kenya, the core assemblies used in this batch of vehicles are all mature products from China National Heavy Duty Truck Group (CNHTC), ensuring convenient parts supply and controllable maintenance costs.
CNHTC has been operating in the Kenyan market for many years, assembling and delivering thousands of vehicles to date. The HOWO-TX tractor unit is one of the best-selling models in the region, enjoying high market acceptance and proven application in specific scenarios such as industrial goods transportation and container shipping.
