Having a rising economic background and news about upcoming oil
fields being discovered in the shores of
Karachi Seas, Pakistan’s automobile sector holds excellent potential! JW Forland has introduced many different vehicles in the dump and cargo
category. For the former, they have added the D310 (Alpha 3) dump truck. Big, reliable and efficient, it is precisely what a dump truck should be in
Pakistan. Let us look at some of the highlights
of this marvel of Pakistani and Chinese truck engineers.
Interior:
First, the engine. The D310 is a rough and tough commercial truck loaded with a turbocharged, water-cooled 4-stroke 2771 cc diesel engine.
The D310 is fuel-efficient and gives you more miles with smiles. With 102
horses working in tandem, power will never be an issue with an D310. The truck also features 5-speed manual
transmission. For a truck as massive as the D310, brakes play a vital part
in its success. We have fitted front and rear hydraulic drum brakes which offer
increased safety while driving. The suspensions (front and rear) are a rigid axle, and
with a Diaphragm Spring Clutch, so you can take on those rough roads with ease.
Not only this, the suspensions add to the durability of the vehicle.

Forland D310 Dumper Truck with easy unloading feature! |
In terms of size, the D310 is 4820 mm long, 2010 mm wide and has a
ground clearance of 200 mm. Remember the article initially mentioned D310 is big? That can sometimes hamper the driving
experience as it takes a lot of effort just
to turn the truck. But in the D310, they have installed a recirculating
ball-type, hydraulic power steering so that the vehicle turns smoothly and efficiently. For the truck of its size, that’s pretty impressive. Another feature of the
D310 is the hydraulic jack installed to let users unload easily.
Looks, Drive &
Performance:
Like the vehicles in the cargo truck category, the D310 has big,
crystal lights installed at the front. Front indicators are fitted in the
headlights, while additional indicators are
mounted on the doors of the truck to let oncoming
traffic know about turns. The grill between the headlights features the Forland
emblem, and crystal rear lights add a
clean look to the vehicle. The D310 is naturally
complete with an easy drive, as it comes with a recirculating ball-type,
hydraulic power steering like mentioned earlier. The steering allows the vehicle
to achieve a turning radius of 6m. The engine operates smoothly and does not
compromise on power with a torque of 225 NM/rpm.
The D310 is Euro II compliant and has a reduced carbon footprint, which helps
preserve the environment. All of the company’s vehicles are Euro compliant
which is in line with their objective stated online on their website as well; of
keeping the environment clean and green.
Price, Availability
& Parts:
The D310 5TS32 is priced at Rs. 2,374,000 (March 2019) which makes it an affordable
value for money in its class. The vehicle is available for purchase as they
continue to change the game in Pakistan’s automobile industry. Getting spare
parts and maintenance is easy as they are setting up an extensive network of dealerships throughout Pakistan to make
sure their valued customers experience hassle-free service.
