Recently, a batch of Dongfeng KR medium trucks made by Dongfeng were officially delivered to their customer in Yuanjiang, Hunan province.

New Generation Dongfeng KR Medium Trucks Officially Delivered to Customers

Equipped with KNORR technology, the new generation Dongfeng KR truck, even fully loaded with a weight of 18 tons, can come to a standstill from a speed of 60 km/h in 27 meters. In addition, its lane deviation alarming system, front collision alarming system, tire pressure monitoring system and camera with panoramic views have all greatly boosted its overall safety standards.

Also worth mentioning is that Dongfeng KR truck has successfully lowered its wind drag to 0.498 and can further improve its fuel economy by 4%. For every 100 km, the truck only consumes 15 liters of fuel and thus greatly helps its operators cut operating costs.

According to customer’s special requirements, the truck can be either equipped with Dongfeng Fengshen series or Dongfeng Cummins series engines. It can reach a maximum speed of 110km/h.

More driver-friendly exterior & interior design is another highlight of Dongfeng KR truck. Such travel amenities as shock absorbing seats and constant speed cruising fully meet customers’ rising demands for medium trucks.

What Is the Difference Between Electric Motor and Electric Generator

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction. An electric generator operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electric generator can be divided into various type, open type, silent type, trailer type, portable type and container type, etc. Electric generator is mainly composed of diesel engine & alternator. Electric generator set is mainly composed of engine, alternator, control module, and common base.
