Recently, Shandong Hstar Auto Co., Ltd. completed port consolidation and stocking of a batch of brand-new commercial vehicles. Four HOWO T7H 6×4 tractor units together with four four-axle rear-tipping semi-trailer dump trucks have arrived at Yantai Port and are ready to be loaded onto vessels for an ocean voyage. The shipping route runs from Yantai, China to Abidjan Port in Côte d’Ivoire, with final delivery to Mali, and arrival and handover are expected in early August 2026.
The HOWO T7H tractor units shipped this time are tailored to the harsh road conditions across Africa. Equipped with MAN-technology engines and mature transmission systems from SINOTRUK, they cover a horsepower range of 371 to 440 HP and boast outstanding fuel efficiency, which has been verified through extensive field tests on long-distance trunk transport projects in Africa. The matching four-axle rear-tipping semi-trailer dump trucks have undergone special optimization for working conditions, featuring large loading capacity and high unloading efficiency, capable of meeting the heavy-duty operational demands of local mining, large-scale infrastructure construction and heavy-haul trunk logistics in Mali.
With direct procurement channels from China’s leading original equipment manufacturers (SINOTRUK, Shaanxi Automobile and Foton), Hstar Auto can supply overseas customers with a full range of engineering vehicles including tractor heads, dump semi-trailers, concrete mixers and truck-mounted cranes, and provide one-stop full-chain logistics services covering transport from factory yards to overseas construction sites. Supported by a factory-direct pricing system without middlemen, rigorous vehicle-by-vehicle quality inspections prior to shipment and full agency services for export documentation, the company has accumulated numerous successful delivery cases across Africa, Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Overseas clients may also conduct on-site vehicle inspections at its Shandong factory to finalize procurement cooperation.
Currently, demand for vehicles for mining development and municipal infrastructure projects keeps rising across West Africa, and this batch delivery will fill the transport capacity gap for local projects in Mali. Hstar Auto opens customized fleet cooperation channels for global overseas buyers. Interested partners can engage in business negotiations and schedule on-site factory visits. Drawing on its sophisticated supply chain and overseas shipping logistics expertise, the enterprise will continuously deliver highly reliable domestic commercial vehicle solutions for overseas infrastructure and mineral logistics scenarios.
