Fuel Efficiency Analysis
Fuel economy is a critical performance metric for fleet cost management. Under mixed operating conditions (40% highway, 60% on/off-road construction routes), the WD615-powered lorry achieves:
- Average Fuel Consumption: 28–32 L/100 km
- Optimal Load Efficiency: 24–26 L/100 km at 80–90% GVW on flat terrain
- Fuel Type: Standard #0 diesel (CFPP compliant); cold-climate variants use #–10 diesel in winter
The Weichai WD615 engine is known for robust low-end torque delivery, enabling efficient hill climbing and load acceleration. However, older Euro III units exhibit higher particulate emissions and marginally reduced thermal efficiency compared to Euro IV/V engines. Retrofitting with fuel optimization modules and cleaned injectors can improve efficiency by up to 8%.
Load Capacity & Operational Suitability
- Payload Capacity: ~18,000–20,000 kg (depending on body configuration)
- Recommended Load Types: Aggregates, sand, gravel, precast concrete, steel beams
- Dump Body Compatibility: Up to 18 m³ volumetric capacity (standard U-body)
- Traction Performance: High torque curve supports 15% gradeability at full load
The tandem rear axle (13T each) with differential lock ensures stable weight distribution and reduced ground pressure on soft terrain. Combined with 12.00R20 tires (rated for 145 load index), the system supports high cyclic loading with minimal deflection.
Operational Notes for Fleet Managers
- Maintenance Interval: 10,000 km (oil & filter), 40,000 km (injector & turbo inspection)
- Transmission Longevity: HW19710 gearbox rated for 800,000 km with proper shifting technique
- Tire Life: 60,000–80,000 km under mixed conditions; off-road use reduces to ~45,000 km
- Resale Value Retention: ~65% at 3 years (150,000 km, well-maintained)
Conclusion
The used lorry truck equipped with the Weichai WD615 engine and HW19710 transmission remains a cost-effective solution for medium- to heavy-duty transport in construction logistics. While not matching the fuel economy of newer Euro V models, its high load capacity, proven durability, and widespread service network make it a viable asset for budget-conscious fleet operators. Proper maintenance and driver training are essential to maximize uptime and fuel efficiency.
