Foton Auman EXT 3 Series fuel tanker chassis

Foton Auman EXT 3 Series fuel tanker chassis

This chassis is a "economical, reliable, and efficient" specialized chassis launched by Foton Daimler for the market of modified special vehicles such as small-scale oil distribution, corporate self-owned fuel supply, and sanitation/landscaping watering trucks. Please note that this is only the chassis; users need to commission a qualified modification factory to install a tank on it to form a complete fuel tanker (or other liquid tank truck).

I. Core Power: High Efficiency, Fuel Economy, and Proven Reliability

Golden Powertrain Foundation: Equipped with a Foton Cummins F-series (such as F2.8/F3.8) 210 horsepower National VI engine. Cummins engines are renowned for their advanced technology, low fuel consumption, high reliability, and long maintenance intervals. 210 horsepower is sufficient for standard 4x2 medium and small tank trucks, ensuring excellent fuel economy and directly reducing operating costs.

Mature Transmission System: Matched with a Fast Gear manual transmission or a proven domestic transmission, and a robust rear axle. This combination features mature technology, a large market share, high transmission efficiency, durability, and low and convenient maintenance costs, making it one of the most popular powertrains in the special vehicle field.

II. Professional Chassis Design: Built for Modification

Specialized Vehicle Chassis Design:

Structural Reinforcement: The frame has been specifically reinforced, with standard power take-off (PTO) interfaces and mounting holes for superstructures, allowing modification companies to quickly and securely install oil pumps, tanks, and auxiliary equipment.

Optimized Wheelbase:  Multiple wheelbase options are available, allowing for flexible matching with tanks of varying capacities, ranging from approximately 8,000 to 15,000 liters, meeting diverse needs.

4x2 Drive System Advantages: Simple structure, relatively lighter weight, and lower purchase cost. Under standard load conditions, it offers excellent road handling and maneuverability, making it ideal for fuel distribution and sanitation operations on urban and rural roads.

III. Excellent Economy and Lightweight Design

Ultra-low operating costs: The excellent fuel efficiency of Cummins engines is its core competitive advantage. For tank trucks operating frequently on short to medium-haul routes, fuel savings translate directly into profit.

Scientific lightweight design: While ensuring structural rigidity, new materials and processes are used to rationally reduce weight. This means that within the total weight limit, more effective payload (oil or water) can be legally loaded, improving the efficiency of each trip.

IV. Brand Value and Service Guarantee

Auman Brand Endorsement: The EXT series is an important product line under the Auman brand, inheriting Auman's genes of reliability and durability. Its cab and overall vehicle manufacturing process have a distinct advantage among similar chassis.

Unparalleled Service Network: Foton Daimler and Cummins have jointly built one of the most extensive and mature service networks in the country. Wherever the vehicle travels, it can receive timely and professional service and parts supply, maximizing the uptime of this important production asset—the specialized vehicle.
