HOWO 371 vs 380 vs TX 430 — Which Engine to Pick
Pick the 371 for the widest parts network and the lowest entry price, the 380 when the box is loaded with wet sand every day, and the TX 430 only for mine access roads and soft ground. Engine choice changes parts cost and fuel burn more than it changes price.
| Engine | Power | Where it pays off | Parts in Africa |
|---|---|---|---|
| WD615.47 | 371 hp | General construction, aggregate, municipal work | Widest – repaired in almost any town |
| WD615.96 | 380 hp | Heavy sand and gravel, longer gradients | Wide |
| MC11.43 | 430 hp | Mine haul, unsealed roads, wet season | Good, newer and pricier |
Which Markets Take a HOWO 6×4 Dump Truck
Left-hand-drive HOWO dump trucks suit Nigeria, Ghana, Benin, Cote d’Ivoire, Senegal, Ethiopia, DRC and Angola. By contrast, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia need right-hand drive, and Kenya also caps used vehicles at eight years. Because that rule quietly removes older bargains from the export list, check the used truck import age limits in Africa before you shortlist a 2017 unit. Right-hand-drive conversion or sourcing adds $2,500-$4,000 per truck.
HOWO Dump Truck FAQ
Are parts for a used HOWO 6×4 dump truck easy to find in Africa?
Yes. Sinotruk has the densest spare-parts network of any Chinese heavy truck across West, East and Southern Africa, which is why a 371 can be repaired in almost any town along a major corridor. That parts depth is the main reason HOWO is the safest first buy.
Should I buy a 6×4 or a 6×6 HOWO dump truck?
Choose 6×4 unless the truck will work in a mine or on unsealed ground all year. A 6×6 adds a driven front axle for traction but costs more, burns more fuel and has a smaller cargo box for the same overall length.
What is the landed cost of a HOWO 371 in Lagos?
A 2019 HOWO 371 6×4 at $18,000-$21,000 FOB plus $2,200-$3,500 RoRo freight lands at roughly $21,000-$25,000 CIF before duty and clearing. The step-by-step figure is in used dump truck prices in Africa 2026.
