400 FOTON Cummins Powered AUMAN heavy trucks delivered to the largest brewing company in Nigeria

Recently, 400 AUMAN GTL heavy trucks equipped with FOTON Cummins engines were officially delivered to Nigeria, which is the second order urgently added by the customer with its business expanding after its first purchase of 100 AUMAN heavy trucks in early 2022. The customer company to which these AUMAN trucks were delivered is called Nigerian Breweries Plc, the largest brewing company in Nigeria.

As a brewer, Nigerian Breweries Plc has strict control over raw material and transport costs. Nigeria is known to have many "pain points" such as road congestion, low transport efficiency and high costs in its road transport system, which indirectly affects the timeliness of material transportation. Therefore, Nigerian Breweries Plc has regarded transport efficiency, attendance, and fuel economy as key considerations when purchasing vehicles.

The 400 AUMAN trucks FOTON Motor delivered this time were all equipped with FOTON Cummins engines and were precisely custom-built as required. A comprehensive iteration and updating have been performed on these vehicles based on its original version in order to adapt to the operating conditions in Nigeria. After upgrading, its fuel saving, efficiency, carrying capacity, volume and attendance have all got improved significantly.

1. Upgraded Fuel Effiency

AUMAN GTL Africa version is equipped with FOTON Cummins engine, and delivers not only higher reliability, but also achieves higher fuel efficiency as its 2000 bar ultra-high pressure injection common fuel rail system can reduce fuel consumption by 5-10% through full combustion. At the same time, the EBP fuel-saving switch can also automatically correct the driver's bad driving habits. And its engine has been designed to be lightweight, with a weight reduction by 300kg, allowing users to control costs while significantly increasing transport capacity.

2. Upgraded Reliability

In particular, its FOTON Cummins engine adopts modular design to reduce the failure rate. With ISOPOD turbo technology, the durability of bearing gets stronger and more secure. After over 30,000 hours of bench testing, high temperature, high cold and high altitude tests, the engine can deliver a more powerful and efficient attendance. It also features a non-EGR system design, which allows for a simpler system and, together with the proven DPF service technology, results in a significant increase in engine reliability.
