How many types of rear axles does the Hongyan Genlyon have?
2 Answers
Hongyan Genlyon has two types of rear axles: single-reduction axle and wheel-reduction axle. Manufacturers providing rear axles: Currently, there are two manufacturers supplying the single-reduction 485 axle for the Genlyon: one is Hongyan's own axle factory, and the other is Shandong Pengxiang Axle Factory. The wheel-reduction axle is produced by Hongyan's own axle factory. Definition of rear axle: A rear axle refers to the rear drive shaft component of a vehicle's power transmission system. It consists of two half-axles that enable differential motion. It also serves as a device to support the wheels and connect the rear wheels. For front-wheel-drive vehicles, the rear axle is merely a tag axle, functioning solely for load-bearing purposes.
When I used to drive the Hongyan Genlyon for transportation, it mainly offered three types of rear axles to choose from: single rear axle drive, dual rear axle drive, and reinforced load-bearing rear axle. The single rear axle is suitable for short-distance urban freight, offering good maneuverability and fuel efficiency, making it ideal for lighter loads. The dual rear axle provides greater horsepower, stability on long-distance mountain roads, and stronger load capacity, which I often used for transporting construction materials. The reinforced rear axle has the highest load-bearing capacity, suitable for coal mines or large equipment transportation. Choosing the right rear axle directly affects driving comfort and fuel consumption. Beginners should seek advice from experienced drivers rather than just looking at the price. Over time, I found the dual rear axle to be the most versatile, but it requires more maintenance effort.
