The HOWO 400HP 8×4 cargo truck chassis is powered by mature Weichai or Sinotruk 400‑horsepower diesel engine, generating massive low‑speed torque output. It maintains stable power output under full‑load weight, performing reliably on highway routes, mountainous roads and complex bad‑surface conditions. Matched with Sinotruk heavy‑duty manual gearbox, the complete powertrain ensures smooth gear shifting and strong overload resistance, perfectly coping with continuous heavy‑duty transportation missions.

Benefiting from the 8×4 four‑axle configuration, the chassis achieves great traction and large‑tonnage payload capacity. Its rated payload can reach above 19 tons, adjustable depending on wheelbase options and different superstructure installations. The high‑strength reinforced ladder‑type steel frame is optimized for heavy‑load operation, featuring outstanding structural rigidity and anti‑fatigue performance. Multiple wheelbase options are available, with pre‑reserved mounting interfaces for diverse upper‑body equipment to meet various conversion‑factory requirements.

This chassis boasts outstanding modification compatibility. Buyers can install stake cargo bodies, closed van boxes, truck‑mounted cranes, bulk‑grain transport tanks, green‑fresh commodity transport bodies and other special‑purpose superstructures. Mass‑produced mature assemblies guarantee high parts universality. Spare‑parts supply channels are accessible worldwide, lowering repair difficulty and long‑term fleet operating costs for end‑users and conversion workshops.

As a heavy‑duty four‑axle chassis product from Sinotruk HOWO, the 400HP 8×4 chassis combines powerful driving performance, robust load‑bearing capacity and flexible refitting adaptability. It has gained wide recognition among freight contractors, engineering conversion plants and heavy‑cargo logistics enterprises overseas.
