Looking for the best price on a Sinotruk Howo 6x4 380HP dump truck in Mozambique? This heavy-duty tipper, fitted with a 5.4-metre steel dump bucket, is purpose-built for Mozambique's most active mining, road construction, and port infrastructure operations. The 380HP engine delivers more torque than the standard 371HP class — a meaningful advantage on the loaded gradients of Tete's coal access roads, Beira Port's logistics corridors, and the Nacala Development Corridor haul routes serving northern Mozambique's growing extractive sector. For fleet operators and contractors working across Mozambique, this is one of the most capable and cost-effective heavy tipper trucks for sale in Mozambique at this specification.
The Sinotruk Howo 6x4 380HP dump truck sits at the top of the mid-range Howo tipper class — a step above the 371HP and 375HP variants in outright power, while remaining within the same proven WD615 engine family and sharing the same broad parts and service network across Southern and East Africa. The 5.4-metre dump body provides a compact yet high-capacity load platform suited to Mozambique's mix of paved national highways, unpaved district roads, and mine site access tracks. Sourced and export-prepared by Qingdao Alston Motors Co., Ltd, every unit is mechanically inspected before shipment, with full documentation provided for customs clearance at Maputo Port or Beira Port.
The 380HP Sinotruk diesel engine delivers a torque advantage over the 371HP and 375HP variants that matters in real operating conditions. Tete Province's coal haul roads involve significant gradient changes between the mines and the Sena Railway loading points. Cabo Delgado's LNG infrastructure access routes cross challenging highland terrain. The Nacala Corridor's feeder roads include long loaded climbs that expose underpowered trucks to overheating and clutch wear under sustained load. The 380HP engine handles these conditions with greater thermal reserve and clutch longevity — reducing maintenance intervals and extending drivetrain service life for Mozambican operators running high daily cycle counts.
The 5.4-metre steel dump body is sized for operations where the truck must move between mine sites, construction zones, and public roads on the same daily cycle. Slightly shorter than the 5.6m bodies common on larger 8x4 configurations, the 5.4m body offers a practical balance — enough volumetric capacity to carry between 12 and 16 cubic metres per load, while keeping the overall truck length manageable for navigation on Mozambique's narrower district and provincial roads. The heavy-gauge steel floor and reinforced side walls handle the abrasive loads typical of Tete's coking coal, Cabo Delgado's mineral aggregate, and Maputo Province's granite quarry output.
The 6x4 dual rear axle layout provides the driven traction needed on Mozambique's unpaved mine access roads, the soft alluvial ground common in the Zambezi Valley, and the wet laterite tracks prevalent across central and northern Mozambique during the rainy season from November to April. This axle setup is the standard configuration for heavy tipper operations throughout the SADC region and is well-understood by Mozambican fleet mechanics and tyre suppliers.
Mozambique follows left-hand traffic, making right-hand drive (RHD) the legally required steering configuration for all commercial road vehicles. This unit is compliant for direct registration with the Instituto Nacional de Transportes Terrestres (INATTER) following standard customs clearance at Maputo Port or Beira Port — Mozambique's two primary commercial vehicle import gateways.
Mozambique's extractive sector — anchored by Tete's coking coal fields, one of the world's largest, and Cabo Delgado's LNG developments — drives sustained demand for heavy haulage equipment on corridors where road reliability and truck uptime are directly tied to project revenue. Qingdao Alston Motors Co., Ltd supplies Howo 380HP tippers to Mozambican buyers with full CIF pricing to Maputo or Beira, pre-shipment inspection documentation, and complete export paperwork for smooth customs clearance.
We offer competitive CIF pricing to Maputo Port or Beira Port, with clear cost breakdowns. Pricing depends on whether the unit is new or used, year of manufacture, mileage, and current inventory. Lead time from order confirmation to port arrival is typically 25 to 40 days. Contact us at bruce@alstonmotors.com for a current price and delivery schedule tailored to your project location.
New Howo 6x4 380HP tippers with 5.4m bucket typically range from USD $40,000 to $46,000 CIF Maputo or Beira. Quality used units are available at lower price points depending on year and condition. Email bruce@alstonmotors.com for a current quote based on live inventory and your delivery requirements.
Both engines belong to the Sinotruk WD615 family and share the same mechanical architecture and parts compatibility. The 380HP variant produces approximately 2.5% more power and proportionally higher torque than the 371HP version — a modest but operationally meaningful difference when the truck is consistently loaded to capacity on gradient-heavy haul routes. For flat highway operations at moderate loads, the difference is marginal. For sustained heavy-cycle mining and construction work on Mozambique's highland and interior routes, the 380HP offers better thermal margin and reduced drivetrain stress over time.
The 5.4-metre dump body on a 6x4 Howo chassis typically carries between 16 and 20 cubic metres per load, depending on body width and side wall height — equivalent to approximately 18 to 25 tonnes for standard construction aggregates. Payload should be confirmed against Mozambique's axle load regulations administered by ANE (Administração Nacional de Estradas) for your specific operating routes.
Yes. Mozambique drives on the left side of the road, so right-hand drive (RHD) is the required configuration for all road vehicles. No steering conversion is needed — this unit registers directly with INATTER after customs clearance at Maputo or Beira Port.
It depends on your final destination. Maputo Port is best for projects in Maputo Province, Gaza, and Inhambane. Beira Port is the preferred entry point for Sofala, Tete, Manica, and Zambézia provinces — and for transit freight bound for Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Malawi. We advise on the optimal routing based on your project location at the time of order.
We supply all documents required by the Autoridade Tributária de Moçambique (ATM) for vehicle customs clearance, including the commercial invoice, bill of lading, certificate of origin, packing list, and pre-shipment inspection certificate. All paperwork is prepared to export standard before vessel loading.
Yes. Sinotruk Howo trucks are widely used across Mozambique, particularly on mining project fleets in Tete and infrastructure projects in Maputo. Spare parts including WD615 engine components, filters, clutch kits, brake assemblies, and hydraulic seals are available through Chinese truck suppliers in Maputo and Beira, and can be sourced directly from China when specialist components are needed. The 380HP engine shares all major components with the widely available 371HP WD615 variant, maximising parts availability countrywide.
