Howo TH7 truck, 500hp AMT with hydraulic buffer

The 8x4 HOWO TH7 truck we introduced today is the leader among domestic trucks. It not only has the same high-roofed two-bedroom cab as the tractor, but also is equipped with AMT and retarder, as well as a 13L high-horsepower engine and so on.

The overall appearance of the TH7 is relatively young and sporty. The front cover is painted in red and black, with chrome-plated decorative strips and a chrome-plated logo. The overall look is more layered. In addition, the hollowed-out parts of the front cover and the middle of the bumper are all designed with numerous Sinotruk logos, which can enhance brand recognition.

The shape of the headlight adopts an irregular shape, and the headlight group integrates daytime running lights, turn signals, high and low beam lights, fog lights, etc. All lights use LED light sources. Compared with halogen light sources, LEDs have higher brightness and are white light, which is relatively clear after being irradiated. But if it is rainy or foggy, the penetrating power of LED is not as good as that of halogen light source.

For trucks, the space in the cab is also very important. The interior of this HOWO TH7 cab still uses a high-top two-bedroom design. The overall space, storage compartment and the layout of function buttons are not much different from the TH7 of the tractor version. The difference is that the width of the sleeper of the TH7 truck is about 78 cm, which is completely sufficient.

The interior is still built according to the standards of tractors, and the functional layout is closer to the modern model design. The overall central control layout has undergone major changes from the previous T7H, and the overall texture is more delicate. The entire interior is made of relatively dirt-resistant black, and the style is relatively young. The center console is inclined like the driver's side, which is convenient for the driver to operate.

The steering wheel adopts a four-spoke design and is equipped with multi-function buttons. The size and grip of the entire steering wheel are suitable in my opinion. In addition, the steering wheel is decorated with black and silver chrome, which takes into account both practicality and appearance. In addition, the adjustable angle of the steering wheel is relatively large. Whether you like a higher sitting position or a shorter one, you can find a more suitable position. 

In terms of comfort, the main driver is equipped with an airbag seat as standard, which supports lumbar support adjustment, and ventilation and heating need to be selected separately. The co-pilot comes standard with a reversible fixed seat, an optional airbag seat, or a pleasant co-pilot with a reclining and massage function.

Overall, the configuration of this 500-horsepower TH7 truck with AMT is still very good. The blessing of AMT can reduce driving intensity and improve driving comfort. The 500-horsepower 13L large-displacement engine can make the vehicle have more power, bringing faster uphill speed and cruising speed.
