What is the fuel tank capacity of HOWO?
2 Answers
HOWO tractors have fuel tanks with different specifications such as 380 liters and 500 liters, depending on the specific model. Fuel tank capacity: The capacity measures the amount of fuel a vehicle can carry. The size of the fuel tank is directly related to the vehicle's fuel consumption. Generally, a full tank can cover more than 500 kilometers. For example, a vehicle with a fuel consumption of 10 liters per 100 kilometers usually has a fuel tank capacity of around 60 liters. Fuel tank capacity display: Drivers often estimate the fuel tank capacity based on when the fuel warning light comes on, but this method is not entirely accurate. Due to various factors such as road conditions and driving conditions, the remaining fuel capacity when the warning light flashes may vary each time.
I'm a long-haul truck driver, and HOWO trucks are quite common in our freight circle. Take the HOWO TH7 I drive for example – it comes with a standard 600L aluminum alloy dual fuel tank, 300L on each side. When fully fueled, it can last over 1,700 kilometers on northwest routes, but you'll notice it's impossible to fill up to the marked capacity at gas stations – the pump nozzle shuts off early, and in winter you can only fill around 580L at most. I heard the mining version has an 800L modified fuel tank, but for the regular highway version, never force it beyond 650L, or the fuel float will get stuck and the fuel gauge will go crazy. The newly released NX series has more accurate fuel level displays, but it's still recommended to refuel when 20% is left to protect the fuel pump.
