The port trailer is equipped with Yuchai K08 engine, the fuel consumption is only 22.9L per 100 kilometers

Port trailers have always been a special field of application, and many howo truck enthusiasts pay attention to both reliability and economy when choosing vehicles. In the fifth stage of the country, Yuchai Port Trailer Power has shown excellent performance in Shenzhen Yantian Port, Ningbo Beilun Port, Guangzhou Port and other important global ports, and its market share ranks among the top. So, how is the performance of Yuchai Power, which is widely concerned in the field of port trailers, in the National VI stage? On April 28, we interviewed a card friend in Shenzhen Shekou Port to see how he commented.

Kayou Master Yang is a professional driver, currently driving a sinotruk howo 4x2 National VI tractor, powered by a Yuchai K08 350 horsepower engine. Master Yang's company mainly undertakes the container transportation business of sea containers within the Pearl River Delta. There are many scenes of re-going and emptying, and it needs to run 1-2 times a day depending on the volume of goods.

At present, this National Sixth sinotruk howo tractor (two-axle tractor + three-axle trailer) has traveled 7,891 kilometers. The total weight of the container is generally about 32 tons when there are goods in the container, and the total weight when the container is empty is about 18 tons. In terms of road conditions, the high-speed and national highways are divided equally. The high-speed generally maintains a speed of 70-80 per hour, and the national highway runs at a speed of 50-60 per hour. The current average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 22.9L.

Why is it so fuel efficient? There are two main factors, one is driving habits, the other is the matching of engine and vehicle, and the calibration of road conditions. Master Yang basically maintains the economic speed when driving, which is one reason for running out of low fuel consumption. Of course, the more important thing is the matching of the engine with the vehicle and road conditions. Master Yang used to drive a port tractor with more than 200 horsepower. This time, after replacing it with a 350-horsepower K08 from Yuchai, the engine horsepower is much larger, but The overall fuel consumption has not increased but decreased.

It is understood that in order to be able to show better performance, Yuchai has built a number of vehicle test sites with its powerful engine customization capabilities, and strengthened the matching of powertrain, vehicle and road conditions to ensure that what is delivered to users is Products that meet user needs. This is also an important reason why Yuchai K08 performs significantly better than other products.

The lower fuel consumption creates great economic value for customers. Compared with other cars in the same industry, Master Yang and his company's sinotruk howocan save 4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. According to Mr. Yang's business volume, if you run more than 100,000 kilometers a year, a car can save 4,000 liters of fuel a year. Based on the current price of No. 0 diesel at 8.15 yuan/liter, you can save 32,000 yuan a year. Gas money, the extra money spent when buying a car, can be saved in less than a year.

After the epidemic eases, Master Yang's company expects that exports may rise sharply and there will be more business volume. The more you run, the more you save and the more you earn, Master Yang said.

In Master Yang's evaluation of this car, comfort is the point he often mentions. He has driven many cars, including imported cars, but the noise control of this car is completely comparable to imported cars. He said that when the air conditioner is idling in the car, the engine noise is very small, and there is basically no sound after closing the door, which will not affect daily communication and phone calls.

This is more advantageous than many other cars in the same industry, because port tractors have a lot of time to wait for goods and containers, especially during the epidemic, drivers basically stay in the car, the air conditioner has to be turned on, and people Also need to rest, the cab noise is naturally as small as possible.

During the interview, Master Yang believed that a truck is a tool for making money, so in terms of vehicle selection, fuel consumption and reliability are very important points. If the fuel consumption of the vehicle is low enough, the corresponding cost for the company is low, and the driver can also benefit from the low fuel consumption.

The better the reliability of the vehicles, the higher their attendance. In terms of fuel consumption, Yuchai has a good performance. In terms of reliability, both Chenglong and Yuchai are well-known in Guangdong and Guangxi. So far, "Yuchai machine, ace power" is still passed down by word of mouth among many old drivers. Many old products of Yuchai and Liuqi in the fourth and fifth stages of the country have withstood the test of time, and everyone recognizes this brand when buying a car.

"The culture of Guangdong and Guangxi is the same, and they are of the same voice. It is trustworthy!" Liuqi and Yuchai obviously understand the needs of Guangdong users better.

In recent years, Liuqi Port has won the favor of many users in the Shenzhen port transport vehicle market with its excellent fuel consumption performance and stable attendance rate, and has always occupied the first position in the Shenzhen port market. As a strategic partner of Liuqi Port tractor power, Yuchai has performed in the country 5 switch to the country 6, and the YCK08 engine has contributed greatly. According to feedback from Master Yang and friends around him, Yuchai has always been recognized by everyone in terms of fuel economy, and Yuchai engines will be given priority in future car selection.
