Howo 6×4 Tipper

The Howo Tipper 6x4 is a heavy-duty dump truck positioned slightly below the Howo-TX 8x4 Tipper. Its presence on Kenyan roads has multiplied significantly owing to its affordable acquisition cost, high-load capacity, versatility, and low operational costs. The spare parts and service parts are readily available, hence their warm reception in the country. It sits in the same category as the FAW J6P, Isuzu Giga series, MAN TGS, Mercedes-Benz Actros, and Volvo FMX.
