FAWDE Gas Engines Win Growing Trust in South America with Major Peru Fleet Order

30 J7 Tractor Trucks Powered by CA6SX1 Natural Gas Engines Delivered to Leading Peruvian Logistics Company

FAWDE has achieved another significant milestone in the South American market, securing an order for 30 J7 tractor trucks equipped with its flagship CA6SX1 natural gas engines from a leading logistics company in Peru.

The order represents a major breakthrough following the successful introduction of the first batch of CA6SX1 gas engines into Peru in 2025. It further strengthens FAWDE’s position in the high-end commercial vehicle powertrain market across Latin America and reinforces the company’s long-term commitment to the region.

CA6SX1 Natural Gas Engine Delivers Outstanding Performance for Peru's Challenging Operating Conditions

As FAWDE's flagship heavy-duty truck platform, the J7 has been engineered to meet the demanding requirements of mining transportation, long-haul logistics, and high-altitude operations.

At the heart of the vehicle is the CA6SX1 Natural Gas Engine, a high-horsepower powertrain specifically optimized for South American market conditions.

Key performance highlights include:

• Maximum power output of 600 horsepower

• Peak torque of 2,800 N·m

• Strong low-speed torque delivery

• Excellent fuel economy

• High reliability under demanding operating conditions

The engine has been specially calibrated for high-altitude applications, maintaining full power output at elevations of up to 3,000 meters without performance degradation.

This capability makes it particularly suitable for Peru's mountainous terrain, mining regions, and highland transportation corridors where vehicle performance is critical for operational efficiency.

Local fleet drivers have reported excellent real-world performance, noting faster acceleration, stronger climbing capability, and stable cruising speeds of 70–80 km/h even on challenging mountain routes.

Localized Service Network Builds Customer Confidence

Since entering the Peruvian market, FAWDE has adopted a dual-driven strategy focused on both product excellence and customer service.

To support customers throughout the country, the company has established a comprehensive localized service network, including:

• Expanded service coverage in key cities such as Lima and Arequipa

• Regional spare parts distribution centers

• Critical component delivery within 48 hours

• Dedicated technical training programs for local service teams

• 24/7 remote technical support platform

• Integrated on-site service and cloud-based diagnostics

This robust after-sales infrastructure ensures maximum vehicle uptime and provides customers with reliable operational support throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle.

Proven Reliability Leads to Repeat Business Opportunities

Before finalizing the purchase, the customer conducted multiple rounds of technical evaluations and real-world operational testing.

The CA6SX1 Natural Gas Engine consistently demonstrated:

• Low natural gas consumption

• Exceptional reliability

• Stable performance in high-altitude environments

• Reduced operating costs

Combined with FAWDE's comprehensive local service capabilities, these advantages ultimately secured the customer's confidence and resulted in the 30-unit fleet order.

The customer has also expressed strong interest in expanding its fleet with additional FAWDE vehicles in future procurement plans.

Accelerating Growth Across the Latin American Commercial Vehicle Market

Latin America remains one of FAWDE's most strategically important international markets.

As demand for cleaner and more cost-effective transportation solutions continues to rise, natural gas-powered heavy-duty trucks are becoming increasingly attractive to logistics operators throughout the region.

Following the successful introduction of FAWDE natural gas products into Peru in 2025, FAWDE's Latin America business recorded strong year-on-year sales growth during the first quarter of 2026, with Peru emerging as one of the company's fastest-growing markets.

The successful delivery of this 30-unit order highlights growing international recognition of both FAWDE's advanced engine technology and FAWDE's global service capabilities. It also demonstrates the increasing competitiveness of Chinese high-end commercial vehicle manufacturing on the world stage.

Supporting Sustainable Logistics Development in South America

Looking ahead, FAWDE will continue to deepen its presence across Peru and the broader Latin American market.

By providing customized transportation solutions, advanced natural gas engine technologies, and full lifecycle service support, the company aims to help logistics operators improve efficiency, reduce emissions, and lower operating costs.

As South America accelerates its transition toward greener transportation systems, FAWDE remains committed to delivering reliable, high-performance natural gas power solutions that drive sustainable growth for customers throughout the region.
