The Dongfeng D3L Flatbed Truck is a medium-sized general-purpose flatbed transport vehicle developed based on the Dongfeng D3L chassis platform. It integrates a power system, a load-bearing chassis, and a flatbed cargo platform structure, and is used for short- and medium-distance transportation of engineering equipment, building materials, and complete sets of equipment.

Dongfeng D3L flatbed truck Core Advantages

Powerful Powertrain Configuration

The vehicle is equipped with a Yuchai YC6J180 series engine, rated at 180 hp (132 kW), meeting the needs of road and construction site transportation under rated load conditions.

Multi-Gear Ratios
The transmission system is matched with a FAST 8-speed manual gearbox (with synchronizer), covering low-speed heavy-load start-up and medium-speed cruising conditions, adaptable to different loads.

High Load Capacity
The chassis features an 8-ton rear axle, and the frame adopts a 250 mm double-layer high-strength steel beam structure, resistant to bending and torsion, suitable for frequent starts and stops and changing road conditions in engineering transportation.

Flatbed Cargo Platform Structure
The cargo platform panel is made of patterned steel plate, approximately 5 mm thick, to provide a non-slip surface and reduce localized wear during loading and unloading.

Comfortable Operation
The vehicle is equipped with a 2100 mm wide semi-high roof cab, providing driving space while ensuring overall vehicle height control. The seat uses an air-cushioned vibration damping structure to reduce the transmission of road vibrations to the driver.

FAQ

Q1: What is the actual payload, you might ask?

A1: The maximum payload calculated based on our vehicle's gross vehicle weight (GVW) and estimated curb weight is approximately 9,600 kg (approximately 10.6 US tons). However, the actual payload depends on the exact weight of the specific flatbed and any additional equipment installed. Always check the final vehicle documentation.

Q2: Which wheelbase should I choose, you might ask?

A2: Of course it depends on what you typically transport (the size/length of the equipment or cargo) and your work environment (space constraints). Choosing a shorter wheelbase (3950/4200 mm) allows for better maneuverability in tight spaces and with smaller equipment. If you are transporting longer machines or need a larger cargo platform, you should choose a longer wheelbase (4500/5100 mm), especially if maneuverability is not the main limiting factor.

Q3: Are Fast 8-speed transmissions reliable, you ask?

A3: Yes, it is. The Fast Gear (FAST) transmission is widely used in the Chinese commercial vehicle market and is gaining popularity around the world. The transmission is much more durable, has a much improved ability to carry heavy loads, and provides excellent performance from slow speed towing to economical highway driving. Shifting is generally quite smooth.

Q4: You may want to know where the durability of the flatbed frame comes from?

A4: Our Dongfeng D3L PLUS has several key upgrades: First, the 100x100mm square steel tube crossbeam has better strength and deformation resistance than the old channel steel design. Combined with a 5mm thick premium diamond pattern steel plate, this creates a highly rigid, durable and non-slip platform that can withstand heavy wear loads. So you can buy with confidence.

Q5: You may be concerned: Is service and parts support available in my country?

A5: We have a growing global network of dealers and authorized service centers for Dongfeng D3L. Please provide your country/region/location and we will connect you with the nearest authorized service partner and confirm parts availability for this model.
