Product Description

The Howo 380 Tipper Truck is a purpose-built CNHTC dump vehicle engineered to move heavy materials quickly and reliably. With a high-performance 380hp powertrain and a robust 8x4 configuration, this truck was designed to reduce cycle times on loading and unloading, lower operating costs and withstand continuous heavy-duty use in construction, quarry and mining operations.

Power and Drivability

At the heart of the machine is a potent WD615.47 engine rated at 380hp paired with heavy-duty transmission options (HW19710 with HW50 PTO or HW19712). The combination delivers consistent torque for full-load climbs, fast recovery on uneven terrain and reliable performance during extended shifts. The HC16 double reduction driving axle and VGD95 front axle ensure power is transferred efficiently to the wheels for traction and durability.

Durability and Build

The Howo 380 features a rugged chassis engineered to resist the stresses of heavy payload cycles. The tipper body uses an 8mm-thick floor and 6mm sidewalls to balance structural integrity and weight. With a container dimension of 7800 x 2300 x 1000 mm, the truck accommodates large volumes while maintaining load stability across the 8x4 wheel layout.

Cab Comfort and Controls

Operators benefit from the HW-N H77L cab that prioritizes ergonomics and visibility. Standard air conditioning, an English VDO instrument panel and a single bunk make the cab practical for long shifts. Thoughtful controls and a clear layout reduce driver fatigue and improve operational focus during repetitive material handling tasks.

Hydraulic and Safety Systems

The Howo 380 tipper integrates a reliable hydraulic system that provides precise and smooth tipping action, reducing cycle time and improving safety during offload. Advanced braking and electronic control components help maintain stability when the truck is fully loaded, supporting safer operation on slopes and rough sites.

Operational Advantages

• High payload capacity for large construction and mining contracts

• Reduced turnaround time through faster loading and unloading

• Lower operating costs per tonne due to fuel tank capacity and efficient driveline

• Robust chassis and carriage thickness for long service intervals

Ideal Use Cases and Target Buyers

The Howo 380 Tipper Truck 8x4 is well suited for contractors, aggregate suppliers, municipal works and mining operations. Fleet managers looking to optimize material movement in Ghana and similar markets will find this model particularly attractive for its blend of power, durability and operator comfort. Companies that demand reliability under repeated heavy loads—road builders, quarry operators and large-scale site developers—benefit most from the Howo 380’s consistent performance.

Key Takeaway

The Howo 380 Tipper Truck is engineered to reduce working hours, lower operating costs and handle the toughest transport tasks reliably. For operators seeking a balance of power, durability and efficiency—especially in markets like Ghana—the Howo 380 is a compelling choice.
