Description
The VX 2628 6×4 Chassis Cab is a robust, heavy-duty truck engineered for custom body applications including tippers, tankers, mixers, and freight boxes. Powered by the Weichai WP10.290 E32 Euro II engine, it delivers 280 HP and 1160 Nm of torque, providing dependable pulling power across varied terrain.
Its 12-speed FAST synchromesh transmission, combined with heavy-duty hub reduction axles, leaf spring suspension, and a full air braking system (with ABS and EVB), ensures safe and powerful operation under full load. The hydraulic tiltable day cab, rugged chassis design, and dual configuration (LWB & SWB) offer flexibility to adapt to fleet requirements. With a GVM of 26,000 kg and GCM of 43,000 kg, it’s built for Africa’s toughest routes.
