Sinotruk V7-X pure electric dump truck has high efficiency 601kWh battery swapping

News, 2026-07-01

Compliant Dimensions and Agile Manoeuvrability on Construction Sites

Measuring 9.77 metres in length, 2.55 metres in width and 3.58 metres in height, with a wheelbase of 1800/3225/1350 mm, this vehicle is well-suited to the access requirements of construction sites and urban restricted-access routes commonly encountered in construction waste transport.

The tipper body measures 5.6 metres in length and 2.3 metres in width, fully complying with the dimensions required for urban construction waste clearance and ensuring legal operation on public roads without exceeding weight or size limits.

Semi-cab Design for Easier Operation

The vehicle features a semi-cab design with seating for two, catering to both single-operator and two-person shift work scenarios.

Paired with a 4-speed AMT automatic transmission with manual mode, it eliminates the need for frequent manual gear changes on complex construction site terrain, significantly reducing the driver’s workload.

All-Electric Powertrain: Reliable Performance at Low Cost

The powertrain features an in-house developed electric motor with a peak power of 410 kW and a rated power of 280 kW, delivering robust power output sufficient for steep slopes on construction sites and heavy-load starts.

The vehicle utilises a 601 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery from CATL, supporting both charging and battery swapping. With a manufacturer-rated range of up to 500 km, it fully covers the daily operational mileage requirements for short-haul construction transport.

Weighing 12.07 tonnes, the vehicle offers maximum load capacity, ensuring higher profits from compliant freight transport.

The parking brake employs an air-cut design, ensuring safer parking on slippery or sloping construction sites and preventing the risk of the vehicle rolling away.

Clearly Defined Use Cases: Tailored to Construction Transport Needs
This vehicle is primarily suited to scenarios such as urban construction waste clearance, short-distance transport of sand and gravel, and the transfer of building materials on construction sites. As a fully electric vehicle, it qualifies for new energy vehicle rights of way in urban areas, resulting in significant savings on operating costs per kilometre compared to fuel-powered construction waste trucks.

The battery-swapping mode also addresses the pain point of lengthy charging wait times, making it suitable for construction operators with fixed battery-swapping stations and a set daily operating mileage. Drivers holding A1, A2 or B2 driving licences are all eligible to operate this vehicle.

Summary
Overall, the Sinotruk Chengdu Commercial Vehicle V7-X ‘Full-Duty Edition’ all-electric tipper combines three core advantages: high load-carrying capacity, low operating costs and flexible energy replenishment, making it an excellent choice for compliant new-energy construction transport.
