Nigeria's transport industry is undergoing a significant shift. With diesel prices elevated following the removal of fuel subsidies, fleet operators from Lagos and Apapa to Kano, Port Harcourt, and Abuja are actively seeking lower-cost alternatives. Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is now that alternative — and the Brand New Sinotruk HOWO 380HP 6X4 CNG Tractor Head is built to deliver it.
Nigeria has abundant natural gas reserves, a growing Presidential CNG Initiative (PCNGI) infrastructure, and major corporations like Dangote investing over N720 billion in CNG-powered truck fleets. The HOWO 380HP CNG tractor head runs on compressed natural gas with a MAN-technology gas engine, delivering powerful 380-horsepower performance at a fraction of the fuel cost of equivalent diesel units. For Nigerian logistics companies, cement distributors, and long-haul freight operators, this is the truck head that directly reduces operating costs per kilometre — from day one.
We supply brand new units directly from the China factory, shipped to Apapa port, Lagos, with full export documentation and competitive factory-direct pricing.
