Unveiling the Mysterious Shaanxi Auto X6000

SHACMAN Auto's new high - end product, the X6000, has always been kept under wraps. Every time some information about the X6000 is revealed, it always attracts the attention of truck enthusiasts. Currently, there are only 5 trial - sale units of the Shaanxi Auto X6000 nationwide, so it's quite difficult to obtain detailed information about it. However, in order to help truckers truly understand this new model, we've made great efforts. Now, it's time to uncover its mysterious veil.

The X6000 can be regarded as Shaanxi Auto's current flagship product, mainly positioned in the high - end trunk - line logistics transportation market. It should be noted that since the X6000 is currently only a trial - sale model, the current configuration may only apply to this single vehicle and does not represent the configurations of X6000 in other regions of the country or the final configuration in the future. Therefore, please view it rationally.

The X6000 has a rather avant - garde appearance. In particular, its multi - layer intake grille and chrome - plated strips may take some getting used to. Perhaps many truckers saw the X6000 when it was still called the Shaanxi Auto HD. It's remarkable how quickly Shaanxi Auto has progressed, and now the X6000 has entered the trial - sale stage.
When you look at it up close, it looks much better. This design is likely to be more popular among young people. As a post - 90s myself, I can fully accept the appearance of the X6000. It's full of personality and stands out. Of course, some older - generation drivers may have different opinions about its appearance, but I personally love the X6000's avant - garde design.
The cab of the X6000 is very tall, and the view through the front windshield is excellent. At the same time, the vehicle is equipped with a lane - departure warning system on the front windshield, which helps to improve the safety factor for drivers at night.
The vehicle's headlight design is quite stylish, but it doesn't have a lens. The LED daytime running lights are quite beautiful. I'm a bit disappointed that the vehicle doesn't have a low - beam lens, considering it's a flagship model. I hope the manufacturer can optimize this in the future.
When you open the front hood, you'll find that the pipeline management of this flagship model is really good. The details are also well - handled. The pipelines are wrapped in multiple layers, and careful waterproof, anti - abrasion treatment and bundling have been carried out. This is really praiseworthy.

The X6000 cab adopts a four - point suspension design to provide a comfortable working and living environment for drivers and passengers. In addition to electric windows, the rear - view mirrors are also electrically adjustable and have an electric heating function.
The overall interior of the X6000 gives a good impression, with a luxurious feel. The driver's and passenger's seats feature a color - block design, following the current color - block trend.
Judging from the appearance, the berth of the X6000 seems to be quite large, and there may be an in - car refrigerator under it. There are three large storage boxes under the berth, which may be replaced if an in - car refrigerator is installed in the future.
The four - spoke steering wheel has a nice shape and is equipped with multifunctional buttons, but it's not leather - wrapped. I hope this can be optimized in the future. The dashboard is relatively ordinary and lacks a bit of a high - tech feel. The LED screen in the middle can be switched through the multifunctional buttons.
What's worth mentioning is that the interior of the X6000 cab is completely flat, which greatly expands the space inside the cab. The parking brake handle is designed on the right side of the driver's seat, which is quite convenient to operate.
The center console finally gets rid of the all - button layout, and the gear lever is integrated on the center console. There's a large - screen system on the center console, making it simple and attractive. However, if the driver shifts gears frequently with the manual gear lever in this position, they may need to lean to the side.
Although it's said to be keyless start, I think it still requires a key. There's a ring of light around the keyhole for easy access at night.
The large center - console screen can adjust many vehicle functions, indicating good expandability. The vehicle can also be voice - controlled via the voice button on the steering wheel. We tested turning on the air - conditioner and playing music, and the response was quick.

The X6000 is equipped with a Xichai ISM11F5 440 engine. It's an 11 - liter engine that meets the National V emission standard. There's also a claim that although it's labeled as 440 horsepower, the actual power is 460 horsepower. Since Xichai doesn't have a 460 - horsepower announcement, it's labeled as 440.
It's matched with a Fast 12 - speed manual transmission, and an AMT transmission will be available in the future. The front axle is from HanDe and features a few - leaf spring design with disc brakes. The rear axle also uses disc brakes, which provide better braking performance than traditional drum brakes.
The front and rear axles of the vehicle are both HanDe axles. The specific rear - axle ratio is unknown, but it's speculated to be a small - ratio rear axle. Both axles have the feature of long - life lubrication and maintenance - free. The fuel filter system is protected by a Parker filter.
The height of the X6000's fairing can be adjusted by hand. After looking at the configuration of this X6000, many people may share my view. The X6000 has an avant - garde appearance and rich interior configurations. However, it's puzzling why the trial - sale vehicle isn't equipped with Weichai's WP13 engine.
There are only 5 trial - sale units of the first - batch X6000 nationwide. It's hard to buy one even if you want to. According to the current information, Shaanxi Auto will definitely launch X6000 models equipped with Weichai engines and AMT transmissions in the future, but the specific launch time is unknown. There will also be models with retarders available in the future, though it's likely to be an optional feature.
