FAW TRUCKS JH6, THE BEST CHOICE OF MOUNTAIN ROAD AND HIGH-SPEED TRANSPORTATION

FAW TRUCKS JH6 products have excellent performance. This news will give the performance of JH6 from the perspective of Chinese users.

User Li Gang is an owner of FAW TRUCKS JH6. The model he has purchased is equipped with a Xichai Aowei CA6DM3 engine. With a horsepower of 460 and a power output of a large torque of 2,600 N·m, JH6 has no pressure for high-speed and heavy-load transportation on mountain roads and long and steep downgrade sections. The whole vehicle starts faster and the acceleration response is more sensitive. It is more powerful and meets the power demands of the normal operation of Li Gang.

From Guangdong to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Inner Mongolia, the transport route of Li Gang covers the whole China. Because he receives orders by himself, it takes five days for a trip and he has a fixed supply of goods. He also receives temporary orders on Yunmanman(Yunmanman is an app for order-receiving). To ensure the timeliness of transportation, Li Gang generally increases the horsepower on the expressway and reduces the speed on mountain roads and areas with complicated road conditions. “On the road, we can compare and see whether the power of the engine is enough.” Li Gang carefully observed the trucks on the road, “When we almost enter Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan, the mountain roads rise and fall and uphill and long downhill are common. Aowei engine with a horsepower of 460 starts and accelerates faster. Especially when it climbs up a steep slope, with the same gear, it can easily overtake other vehicles.” In the circle of truck drivers of Li Gang, FAW TRUCKS power engine is recognized as powerful and suitable for being driven in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan.

The most “difficult” problems are solved by JH6, including heavy loads, mountain roads, and long-distance transport. There is no overhaul of the engine for nearly 600,000 kilometers.

Li Gang drives FAW TRUCKS product and his friends also choose FAW TRUCKS. People in his circle of trucks all drive FAW TRUCKS and make money together. “All the people on the street drive FAW Trucks in the northeast of China. You cannot see other brands of trucks. This is also our feelings for FAW TRUCKS and recognition of FAW TRUCKS brand.”

The minimum fuel consumption on mountain roads is 29L

In the transportation era of cost reduction and efficiency improvement, through the analysis of the TCO of trucks, the fuel cost and road toll account for more than 60% of the total cost in the whole life cycle of the vehicle. Among them, the fuel consumption cost has a big proportion. Therefore, fuel saving has always been a topic focused on by end users.

In the cost of logistics and transportation, we should increase income and reduce expenditure. Fuel consumption is the top priority. “Unlike express delivery, we transport general cargo and we do not have a tight schedule. Therefore, whether we can make money in a trip depends on how much you can save on fuel.” Li Gang pays special attention to the fuel consumption of his truck and often compares it with the fuel consumption of the trucks of other friends.

His FAW TRUCKS JH6 is equipped with an Aowei CA6DM3 engine. According to information, efficient combustion control technology is used for this engine and it is equipped with an overhead cam with four valves. The air intake and exhaust efficiency of the combustion chamber are higher. The fuel can be burned more thoroughly and a bigger power can be output. Low fuel consumption and high power are achieved.

At the same time, the double water jacket cylinder heads and high-strength body design of the Aowei engine can fully meet the need of ultra-high pressure of explosion above 220bar, realizing the higher economy of fuel. Besides, the power transmission system simulation software of the vehicle can calculate, analyze, and optimize its fuel injection air system matching. The power matching can be optimal easily so that the comprehensive fuel consumption performance of the vehicle equipped with FAW TRUCKS Power Aowei CA6DM3 engine will be better.

With such a “fixed standard”, his fuel consumption is significantly lower than that of other truck drivers. “I have compared it with the trucks of my friends. The marked fuel consumption of FAW TRUCKS JH6 is usually about 30L on mountain roads and it can be as low as 29L. The fuel consumption of the trucks of other brothers is 31-32L. My average fuel cost is RMB2,000 lower than theirs each month, which greatly decreases the cost of transportation.” Li Gang spoke highly of the fuel consumption of FAW TRUCKS JH6.

Li Gang also has his own tips when driving. “Control the speed in a timely manner according to the road conditions ahead. Don’t step on the accelerator suddenly. Try not to change lanes while driving. Drive in a straight line at a constant speed and find the most economical speed suitable for you. Maintain the engine frequently. Don’t wait until the deadline. Through early maintenance, the engine life will be prolonged.” With experience in driving JH6, he participated in the FAW TRUCKS Fuel Saving Challenge of Internet of Vehicles in 2020, stood out from 100,000 competitors, and won the second place of the J7-13L engine group. His fuel consumption per 100 hundred kilometers was lower than 27L.

In addition to the fuel saving of FAW TRUCKS Power, core technologies of Aowei CA6DM3 such as the technology of long life of 1.8 million kilometers, the oil change technology of 100,000 kilometers, electronically controlled high-pressure common rail technology of 2,000 bar, low friction technology, high-power engine braking technology, low NVH technology, and lightweight technology also provide higher value to the operation of Li Gang from many aspects and decrease the maintenance cost in the later stage.

“I plan to change a truck at the end of this year!” When he was asked about the new truck, Li Gang did not hesitate to choose FAW TRUCKS again, “The engine and configuration of this truck meet the demands. FAW TRUCKS is really a money machine!”
