Detailed Specifications & Configuration
The AUMAN GTL is a platform with multiple power and configuration options. The table below outlines typical high-specifications for a 6x4 tractor model aimed at the premium long-haul market.
| Category | AUMAN GTL 6x4 Tractor (Typical High-Spec Configuration) | Explanation & Competitive Edge |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Parameters | Drive Configuration: 6x4 (Steering front axle, powered tandem rear axles) Cab: High-roof spacious sleeper cab, optimized for long-haul living. GCW Rating: Typically up to 40-49 tons (market dependent). | The 6x4 drivetrain is the standard for heavy-duty tractors, offering superior weight distribution and traction over 4x2 models. |
| Powertrain (Flagship) | Engine: Foton Cummins X12/X13 series diesel engine. Power Range: 430 - 580 HP. Torque: Up to ~2600 Nm. Transmission: ZF TraXon or Fast Gear 12/16-speed AMT (Automatic Manual Transmission). | Features top-tier, globally recognized powertrain components. High horsepower and automated transmissions reduce driver fatigue and optimize fuel efficiency. |
| Chassis & Axles | Front Axle: 7.5-ton capacity. Rear Axles: 13-ton single reduction tandem axles. Axle Ratio: Selectable (e.g., 2.714, 3.083, 3.364) for optimal speed/fuel economy balance. Suspension: Air suspension or multi-leaf spring options. | Heavy-duty axles built for maximum load. Air suspension offers better ride quality and trailer coupling convenience. |
| Fuel & Efficiency | Fuel Tanks: Dual aluminum tanks, total capacity often 1000+ liters. Features: Advanced telematics, predictive cruise control, and low-drag aerodynamics for superior fuel economy. | Massive range reduces non-revenue stops. Integrated smart systems actively manage fuel consumption, a major cost factor. |
| Safety & Driver Focus | Active Safety: ESP (Electronic Stability Program), AEBS (Advanced Emergency Braking), Lane Departure Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control. Driver Comfort: Full air-suspension seat, multi-function steering wheel, large infotainment screen, refrigerator, ample storage. | Equipped with European-level active safety systems. The cabin is designed as a "mobile home" to attract and retain professional drivers. |
