Foton Motor Launched Auman EST A in Malaysia
August 13,2018
The EST A is the automatic version of the company’s Energy Super Truck (EST), and is offered in 4×2 and 6×4 versions. Both are powered by a Cummins ISG 11.8 litre straight-six turbodiesel producing 424 hp at 1,900 rpm and 2,000 Nm from 1,000 to 1,400 rpm, paired to a ZF TraXon 12-speed automatic transmission.
The gearbox comes with a built-in hydraulic retarder that provides 540 hp of braking power on top of the standard disc brakes, while the engine’s compression-release brake adds another 370 hp. The EST A also comes with air suspension, a four-point floating cabin and an airbag seat for increased comfort.
Safety-wise, the EST A conforms to UN ECE R29-03 regulations for occupant safety. The cab is built from one-millimetre-thick high-strength steel and is able to be pushed back by 200 mm in a collision, acting as a crumple zone. Stability control, lane departure warning and a tyre pressure monitoring system are also fitted.
The EST A is offered with a two-year, unlimited-mileage warranty and comes with two years/120,000 km of free maintenance. Mpire Commercial has a 3S centre at the Elite Industrial Park in Shah Alam, and it also signed up 15 new dealers from across Peninsular Malaysia during the launch event. (www.chinatrucks.com)
