Recently, at the foot of the magnificent Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang, a batch of 100-ton-class mining trucks—Zoomlion ZT160HEV units powered by Yuchai Mengqing powertrains—were delivered, helping to build a new blueprint for green and smart mines.

The Zoomlion ZT160HEV units delivered in this batch were developed specifically for mining conditions and adopt fully domestically produced configurations and globally leading hybrid technology, featuring heavy payload capacity, excellent energy efficiency, and stable braking. The Yuchai Mengqing YCK16 diesel engine they are equipped with is a high-end powertrain built for the mining truck market, with a displacement of 16 liters, a maximum output of 775 horsepower, and a maximum torque of 3,200 N·m. It is suitable for large mining trucks in the 90–100-ton payload class and offers notable advantages including strong power, good load response, low fuel consumption, low noise, low maintenance costs, and high reliability. It has been widely used in large engineering machinery and equipment such as mining dump trucks and crawler excavators.

Yuchai mining truck powertrains have achieved batch matching with mining trucks from manufacturers including Zoomlion, SANY, XCMG, LiuGong Machinery, Tongli Heavy Industry, Shandong Lingong, Taiyuan Heavy Industry, and Shanhe Juding. The products are not only widely used in mining areas in Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Tibet, Guizhou, Yunnan, and other regions, but are also exported to Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Vietnam, and other countries, winning high praise from users. As of now, Yuchai mining truck powertrains hold a market share of over 90% in the hybrid and range-extender markets. 90% of autonomous mining trucks are equipped with Yuchai mining powertrains.
