In terms of the body design, the auto cab of Qilong T Series enjoys a simple and bright style by learning from the design of leading international heavy trucks. With precise aerodynamic calculation, the auto cab is designed to have a more reasonable
A Column tilt angle. Compared with vertical A Column of other brands, it benefits from low wind resistance coefficient and great improvement in fuel conservation. With standard features and four points full-floating suspension system, the strength of body structure meets the standard of ECE R29. Strictly designed in accordance with the human machine engineering standards, the interior cab is user-friendly, comfortable and spacious, which is an ideal “mobile home” of drivers.
In terms of the power assembly, the dynamic and economic performance of the complete vehicle of Qilong T Series Heavy Trucks is enhanced by utilizing big horsepower engines, optimizing auxiliary system and using leading foreign software to optimize the vehicle performance and appropriately match the drive line system. Based on different vehicle types, the speed change box can be equipped with hand-operated speed change box ranging from six speed, seven speed, eight speed, nine speed, ten speed to 12 speed and 16 speed. It can also be equipped with AMT or AT to satisfy the needs of different customers.
In terms of the loading system, proceeding from the niche market and environmental conditions, Qilong T Series Heavy Trucks seek good loading capacity and working life, smooth-going characteristics and suspension assembly that meet the demand of different customers. The leaf springs are divided into two categories, ie multiple leaf springs and parabolic springs. Multiple leaf springs have three conditions, including standard load, general overload and extreme overload. Users may have the appropriate one installed according to the practical loading condition. The towing vehicle may have parabolic springs and air suspension. The balance suspension includes integral type and breaking type, either of which can be chosen by the customer.
In terms of the braking system, in accordance with ECE Regulation and GB 12676, Qilong T Series Heavy Trucks increase the pressure of the braking system, reduce the braking distance and improve the safety. Both high performance brake valve and quick plug connectors contribute to higher reliability of the braking system. In case of frequent uphill and downhill braking in difficult conditions, customers may have ABS, ASR or disc brake installed so as to enhance the reliability of the braking system.
In terms of the electrical system, Qilong T Series Heavy Trucks benefit from the electronic network system of CAN BUS and bus instrument with powerful functions of fault diagnosis and predictive maintenance. The photometric characteristics of the vehicle lamps meet the national standards. The vehicle has automatic constant temperature air conditioner, high quality multimedia audiovisual system, supreme electromagnetic compatibility, electrically adjusted rear view mirror with heating functions.
