The TZ5E 6x4 electric dump truck is a strong electric truck choice for Myanmar's city construction where sites sit close to residential areas and noise curfews are tightening. With a 400 kWh CATL LFP pack and a 400 kW motor it hauls 20 to 28 t of spoil across 240 to 300 km of range per charge, covering multiple Yangon site loops before returning to depot.
Urban construction in Yangon runs against strict daytime noise limits, and a silent electric tipper can work the early and late windows that a clattering diesel loses. The TZ5E's near-zero site noise also improves relations with nearby residents and reduces the risk of complaint-driven stoppages.
The TZ5E is a 6x4 rigid dump with a 400 kWh CATL LFP battery and a 400 kW drive motor. The table below is the spec sheet Myanmar buyers quote against when replacing older diesel tippers on city sites.
| Parameter | TZ5E Value |
|---|---|
| Battery capacity | 400 kWh CATL LFP, liquid-cooled |
| Drive motor | 400 kW permanent-magnet motor |
| Chassis layout | 6x4 rigid dump, 20 to 28 t payload |
| Body volume | 12 to 16 m3 V-shaped body |
| Certified range | 240 to 300 km per charge |
| DC fast charge | 240 / 360 kW (20 to 80 percent in 55 to 80 min) |
| Battery warranty | 8 years / 4,500 cycles |
| FOB price range | USD 105,000 to 135,000 |
Yangon construction sites often lack high-power grid, so the TZ5E charges at the contractor depot overnight on a 240 kW DC unit, then runs site shuttles during the day. Where a site has temporary power, Fenghan can add a 120 kW mobile charger fed from the site generator during off-peak hours.
Yangon's construction noise ordinance limits diesel plant after 22:00 near homes. The TZ5E's electric drivetrain lets it tip and shuttle with minimal sound, so contractors can extend productive hours into the early evening without breaching limits. The hydraulic pump is the main remaining noise source and runs only during lift.
Myanmar diesel pricing is volatile, but at a representative USD 0.9 per liter a 6x4 diesel tipper burning 34 L per 100 km costs about USD 0.31 per km. The TZ5E at 1.5 kWh per km and USD 0.12 per kWh costs about USD 0.18 per km, a 40 percent energy saving before maintenance.
| Cost (5 yr / 200,000 km) | Diesel tipper | TZ5E EV |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel / energy | USD 0.61M | USD 0.36M |
| Maintenance | USD 0.15M | USD 0.08M |
| Battery (pro-rata) | n/a | USD 0.13M |
| Total | USD 0.76M | USD 0.57M |
The TZ5E emits no exhaust on site, so crews working in trenches and near the body are not breathing diesel fumes. Cabin preconditioning on grid power keeps the driver cool in Myanmar's 35 °C hot season without idling, and the low center of gravity from the floor-mounted pack improves tip stability.
The TZ5E's 12 to 16 m3 V-shaped body suits general spoil, sand, and demolition waste, and buyers can spec a hardened liner for sharp broken concrete or a lighter alloy floor for soil. The hydraulic tip is inverter-driven off the main pack, so it lifts quietly and without a separate PTO, and the 400 kWh capacity covers a full shift even with frequent lifts.
Yangon sites near schools and markets need a truck that does not blanket the neighborhood in diesel haze. The TZ5E's zero exhaust and low noise let it work the 07:00 to 09:00 window that a diesel loses to complaint, and the LED work lights and 360 camera package improve night safety on unlit plots.
| Safety feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Zero exhaust | Clean air for trench crews |
| 360 camera | No blind spot on tight sites |
| Stable low CoG | Safer tip on soft ground |
| Quiet lift | Night and near-home work |
The 400 kWh LFP pack runs a liquid loop that shares heat with the motor and inverter, so on a 35 °C Yangon day the cells stay in the 25 to 35 °C window without wasting range on cooling. The 8-year warranty covers the tropical cycle, and Fenghan pre-conditions the pack on grid power so the first morning trip leaves with optimal cell temperature.
Contractors with several Yangon sites rotate the TZ5E between them on a daily plan, since one truck covers 8 to 10 trips. A second unit lets the fleet cover a distant Hlaing Tharyar site while the first serves the city core, and both charge overnight at the central depot on a single 240 kW charger with staggered plug-in.
Drivers moving from diesel learn one-pedal control and the regen descent habit during a one-day Fenghan course. The instant torque needs a lighter right foot on the climb, and the trainer emphasizes charge-window discipline so the truck never drops below 15 percent mid-shift, which protects both range and battery health.
The TZ5E's LFP pack holds capacity well past the 8-year mark, so a unit rotated at 4 years typically retains 45 to 55 percent of FOB on the regional used market. That residual strength supports the finance case for a contractor adding a second unit, and Fenghan keeps the inspection record that proves battery health at trade-in.
On a like-for-like Yangon inner loop, the TZ5E and a 6x4 diesel tipper carry the same 24 t and run the same trips, but the electric truck returns to depot with a full charge log and no fuel receipt to reconcile. The site manager gets a single energy number per km instead of a fuel card maze, which simplifies the cost report the head office requests each month.
Yangon's growing metro restrictions limit diesel tippers from certain residential corridors during daytime, but the TZ5E's clean operation qualifies it for an all-hours permit on those same roads. Contractors report that holding the permit lets them serve central sites that competitors must vacate by 09:00, a commercial edge that the lower per-km cost only reinforces. Fenghan assists with the emissions declaration the permit office requests, and the sealed battery removes the spill-risk objection that sometimes blocks site entry.
Myanmar buyers land at Yangon port and process imports under the current commercial vehicle rules. Fenghan manages export packing, marine insurance, and site commissioning including charger setup.
