Sinotruk HOWO TX 6x4 pure electric tractor
350 kWh and 430 km on the CLTC cycle at a price from 660,000 to 820,000 yuan — the HOWO TX EV is China's mid-market with a public price.

The EvCompass verdict
The key arguments drawn from the published data and the EvCompass editorial summary.
The CLTC cycle is even more optimistic than WLTP, so 430 km should be read as a laboratory ceiling — the full span is 245 to 430 km depending on the battery. Eighteen variants in the price list show how deeply configured this market is. No EU homologation.
Strengths
- A 600 kWh battery gives up to 430 km of range and the pack swaps in 5 minutes, combining a large reserve with a short stop.
Weaknesses
- 430 km is the CLTC maximum across the 282–600 kWh pack family, so it is not directly comparable with a European road result.

- Measurement basis
- CLTC 245-430 km across the 282-600 kWh battery options; 430 km is the top of the range with the largest pack. CLTC is a Chinese light-duty-derived cycle and is materially more optimistic than VECTO or real-world European long-haul figures - do not compare it directly with a European e-tractor range.
These are manufacturer-published figures gathered through EvCompass research.
Price and availability
What it costs and whether it is available in Poland
Published price evidence and the Polish availability answer, kept together for a buying decision.
The manufacturer publishes no price for this vehicle.
In heavy transport that is the rule rather than the exception — makers quote on request.
Chinese guide price CNY 660,000 - 820,000 across 18 listed HOWO TX EV tractor variants (360che.com). At 1 EUR = 7.85 CNY (ECB, 22 Aug 2026) approximately EUR 84,000 - 104,000 - conversion by this agent, not quoted by any source.

Research notes
The sources and research notes behind the figures, claims and editorial assessment.
CAVEAT ON SOURCE: sinotruk-howo.com and globalsinotruk.com are export-distributor sites, not Sinotruk's corporate domain (sinotrukgroup.com.cn), which was unreachable. Specs should be treated as distributor-published rather than first-party. CONFLICT on motor power: 360 kW peak PMSM in one distributor listing vs 480 kW peak (900 Nm) single-motor and 825 kW peak (500 Nm per motor) three-motor in another. The higher figures are used here for the flagship build; the 360 kW figure probably belongs to the base 282 kWh version. Kerb weight 9.7 t, total traction mass 39.17 t, max speed 89 km/h, 7.45 m long, 2.53 m wide, wheelbase 3,825+1,350 mm (3,800+1,400 mm variant). Battery options 282-600 kWh, CATL LFP. Sinotruk was China's No.2 heavy-truck brand overall in Dec 2025 (8,129 units) but is far less electrified than XCMG or SANY. A 4x2 178 hp port-container variant with a 282 kWh CATL pack also exists (ZZ4187N361GZ1BEV28).
