The two trucks, Jiefang J7 and JH6, each have their own characteristics and differences:
Jiefang J7:
J7 is a high-end product in the Jiefang truck series, with a tougher design and a focus on the comfort and safety of the cab.
The body length of J7 is shorter than that of J6, while the body height is increased, making the cab space larger and the field of vision better.
The wheelbase of J7 is shorter, at 3300mm, which is 150mm shorter than that of J6. The vehicle weight is the same as that of J6, both at 8.805 tons, which is suitable for the lightweight needs of the efficient logistics market.
Jiefang JH6:
JH6 is regarded as the successor of J6P and J7. Compared with J6P, JH6 has improved cab safety, comfort and configuration functions.
The design of JH6 has been improved in details, such as the storage cabinet on the side of the cab, and the front and rear suspension adopts a less leaf spring structure, while J6P uses more leaf springs, so J6P has a relatively stronger load-bearing capacity.
Some versions of the JH6, such as the JH6 Living Cabin Edition, offer more convenience and comfort features, such as an automatic transmission and an optimized living space, making it ideal for long-term driving and living in the vehicle.
In general, the J7 focuses more on the high-end market, providing higher comfort and safety, while the JH6 inherits the mature technology of the J6P and provides more comfort and configuration options.
