HOHAN Trucks for Sale — Used 6x4 & 8x4 Dump and Tractor, CIF Export

What Is HOHAN? The Sinotruk Family Explained

Sinotruk (China National Heavy Duty Truck Group) runs several truck lines under its umbrella. Most buyers know sinotruk dump trucks through the HOWO badge, but the group also produces HOHAN for buyers who want a slightly larger cab footprint and heavier-duty frame at a price that still beats European iron.

The key corporate fact: HOHAN and HOWO share the same core mechanical platform. Engine — WD615.47, turbocharged, 371HP. Gearbox — HW19710, 10-speed. Tyres — 12R22.5. Axle architecture — twin rear axles on 6x4 configurations, triple-axle spread on 8x4. This is not coincidence; it is an intentional design decision by Sinotruk so that fleet operators can mix HOWO and HOHAN units and run a single parts inventory.

For buyers in markets like Kampala, Lagos, or Dar es Salaam, where a broken truck on a remote site costs money every hour, parts commonality is a bigger selling point than brand prestige. HOWO parts are sold in virtually every city in sub-Saharan Africa. HOHAN runs the same parts.

HOHAN 6x4 Dump Truck — Construction and Quarry Work

The HOHAN 6x4 dump truck is the most common config we export. Drive: 6x4. Engine: WD615.47, 371HP. Gearbox: HW19710, 10 speeds. Tyres: 12R22.5. Overall dimensions: 8.5 × 2.55 × 3.2 m. Cargo box: 5.8 × 2.55 × 1.7 m — a standard rectangular steel body with a front hydraulic lift cylinder. Payload: typically 25–30 tonnes, depending on gross vehicle mass rules in the destination country.

The reinforced chassis and heavy-duty suspension handle unpaved haulage roads well. The cab has an air-suspension driver seat, air conditioning, and a layout that keeps controls within easy reach on a long shift. Fuel tank holds 300 litres — useful on sites where refuelling points are sparse.

Compared to a howo dump truck in the same 6x4 configuration, the HOHAN cab is wider and the frame section is slightly heavier. Both run identical engines. Which one you choose often comes down to cab preference and stock availability on the date you need to ship.

• Engine: WD615.47 — 371HP
• Gearbox: HW19710 — 10-speed
• Tyres: 12R22.5
• Cargo box: 5.8 × 2.55 × 1.7 m
• Fuel tank: 300 L

HOHAN 8x4 Dump Truck — High-Volume Bulk Haulage

For heavier loads — road base, crushed stone, iron ore, construction fill — the HOHAN 8x4 dump truck adds a third axle and a longer body. Overall length stretches to 11 × 2.55 × 3.2 m. The cargo box grows to 7.6 × 2.5 × 1.7 m, with load capacity reaching 40–50 tonnes. Engine and gearbox remain unchanged: WD615.47 at 371HP with the HW19710 10-speed.

The 8x4 layout spreads load across eight wheels, which reduces ground pressure and extends tyre life on gravel haul roads. If your operation involves mine-to-crusher runs or quarry-to-plant routes where payloads change frequently, the 8x4 gives you more tonnage per trip without stepping up to a rigid mining truck.

• Gearbox: HW19710 — 10-speed
• Tyres: 12R22.5
• Overall: 11 × 2.55 × 3.2 m
• Cargo box: 7.6 × 2.5 × 1.7 m

HOHAN 6x4 Tractor Head — Long-Haul and Container Work

The HOHAN 6x4 tractor head shares the same WD615.47 371HP engine and HW19710 10-speed gearbox. Fuel tank is 400 litres — 100 litres more than the dump variants — reflecting the longer distances tractor units typically cover. Tyres: 12R22.5. The cab is a full-size sleeper-capable unit with air conditioning and an air-suspension seat.

We stock these for buyers who pull flatbed trailers, low-beds, and 40-foot containers on routes from Mombasa port to Nairobi, from Durban to Johannesburg, or from Tema port inland to Accra warehouses. A 400-litre tank on a highway route in East Africa means fewer stops. The WD615 engine has a documented service history across the continent; if a fuel injector or turbo seal needs replacing at a rural stop, the parts are there.

Note: we also carry a full range of 6x4 dump trucks if your next purchase is a tipper rather than a puller.

• Engine: WD615.47 — 371HP
• Gearbox: HW19710 — 10-speed
• Tyres: 12R22.5
• Fuel tank: 400 L

Refurbishment, LHD/RHD Conversion, and CIF Shipping

Every HOHAN unit we ship goes through our standard inspection and refurbishment process before it leaves China. We check and address: engine oil and coolant condition, turbocharger seals, transmission oil, clutch wear, brake system (drums, linings, air system), hydraulic lift cylinder on dump trucks, fifth wheel on tractors, tyres, and electrical systems including lights.

Steering conversion — LHD to RHD or RHD to LHD — is done in-house. Most African markets drive on the left (South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia, Ghana) and require RHD. We do not sub-contract conversions; the work is done in our own workshop so we control quality.

Shipping is CIF — Cost, Insurance, Freight. We quote to the destination port: Durban, Mombasa, Lagos Apapa, Tema, Dar es Salaam, Aqaba, Jebel Ali. Documents included: bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and inspection report. Buyers handle port clearance and inland delivery at their end; we can recommend clearing agents in most markets if asked.

Used HOHAN trucks are also popular with buyers looking for trucks for sale in south africa — Durban is one of our most active CIF destinations, and HOWO-family spare parts are widely stocked in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
