As global construction, mining, and infrastructure projects accelerate their transition toward low-carbon operations, battery-electric dump trucks are becoming a preferred solution for fleet operators seeking lower operating costs, reduced emissions, and improved productivity.

The Dongfeng Kinglong KC 8×4 7.8m Battery-Swapping Pure Electric Dump Truck is one of Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle’s flagship new-energy heavy-duty construction trucks. Designed specifically for urban construction waste transport, aggregate hauling, mining operations, and short-to-medium distance heavy-load logistics, this model combines the proven Kinglong KC engineering platform with CATL battery-swapping technology to deliver high uptime and outstanding operating efficiency.

1. Fast Battery Swapping for Maximum Uptime

Traditional charging can keep a truck idle for hours.

The Kinglong KC battery-swapping system enables operators to exchange depleted battery packs within minutes, allowing trucks to quickly return to operation and significantly improving fleet utilization rates.

Benefits:

• Near-continuous operation
• Reduced charging downtime
• Improved fleet productivity
• Lower energy management costs
• Ideal for high-frequency transport routes

This makes the truck especially suitable for:

• Urban muck transport
• Sand and gravel hauling
• Mining operations
• Port logistics
• Industrial parks

Battery-swapping technology is increasingly recognized as one of the most practical solutions for heavy-duty commercial vehicle electrification.

2. Powerful 450 kW Electric Drive System

The truck is equipped with a high-performance permanent magnet synchronous motor delivering:

• Peak Power: 450 kW
• Instant torque output
• Excellent climbing capability
• Smooth acceleration under heavy load

Compared with conventional diesel dump trucks, electric powertrain technology provides:

• Faster torque response
• Lower drivetrain losses
• Reduced maintenance requirements
• Improved operating comfort

This is particularly valuable for construction sites with frequent stop-and-go operation.

3. CATL 282 kWh LFP Battery Pack

The vehicle adopts a CATL lithium iron phosphate battery system with approximately 282 kWh capacity.

Advantages of LFP Technology:

✔ High thermal stability

✔ Long cycle life

✔ Enhanced safety

✔ Lower degradation rate

✔ Suitable for heavy-duty commercial applications

The battery system is optimized for intensive fleet operation and frequent charging/swapping cycles.

4. Proven Tianlong KC Heavy-Duty Chassis

The Kinglong KC series is one of Dongfeng’s most successful engineering truck platforms.

Key chassis features include:

• Reinforced frame structure
• Heavy-duty suspension system
• Optimized axle load distribution
• Enhanced torsional rigidity
• Excellent durability under harsh working conditions

The 8×4 configuration provides superior load-carrying capability and stability on:

• Construction sites
• Quarry roads
• Mining haul roads
• Uneven terrain

Dongfeng’s KC platform has been widely adopted across China’s infrastructure and mining sectors.

5. Large 7.8-Meter Dump Body

The truck features a rear-dump cargo box measuring:

• Length: 7.8 m
• Width: 2.35 m
• Height: 1.5 m

The spacious body design enables efficient transportation of:

• Sand
• Gravel
• Aggregate
• Construction waste
• Ore materials
• Earthwork materials

This configuration helps reduce trip frequency and improve transportation efficiency.

The Kinglong KC adopts Dongfeng’s mature D320 engineering vehicle cab design.

Interior Highlights

• Ergonomic dashboard layout
• Air suspension seat options
• Multifunction steering wheel
• Large storage spaces
• Wide-angle visibility
• Enhanced driving comfort

The half-row cab configuration also provides additional rest space for operators working long shifts.
