“AutoKrAZ” has shipped to its new customer, a mining company of Ukraine, the KrAZ-65032 AWD 6х6 dump trucks with payload capacity of 16 tonnes.
Shipment of new vehicles has been preceded by acceptance carried out by customer’s representatives. On completion of thorough check for missing items and conformity to specification the KrAZ-65032 dump trucks went to destination point.
This model of AWD dump truck has been designed for use in harsh environment. All-wheel drive and reinforced rear suspension ensure excellent off road ability for carrying various bulk loads.
The KrAZ-65032 dump trucks come with standard equipment under the contract: turbocharged inline engine rated at 375hp meeting Euro-5 coupled with 9-speed manual double-range transmission and dry single-disk clutch. Brake system is provided with ABS. 16 cu.m dump body has rear lockable tailgate. These vehicles have double-tire wheels but this model as all the AWD KrAZ vehicles can be provided with wide single-tire wheels.
It should be noted that during last crisis year dump trucks account for 2-3 percent of the company’s total output. For reference, in 2008 this figure was 48 percent, in 2009 – 30 percent, in 2010 – 14 percent. These figures prove that construction and mining industries, where dump trucks are mostly used, are in stagnation. However, KrAZ dump trucks will regain their popularity with national economy after reestablishment of peace and economic recovery.
