Four-Wheel Drive - Never Get Stuck

All four wheels receive engine power. Superior traction, stability and pushing force in mud, sand, loose gravel and soft ground - the loader keeps working when 2WD machines are spinning.

162kW

Weichai Turbocharged Power

162 kW (217 hp) Weichai WD10G220E23 turbocharged intercooled diesel - strong cold-start, high torque backup, low fuel consumption. The industry-standard 5-ton loader engine.

Why Four-Wheel Drive Matters on a Loader

4WD transforms a wheel loader from a fair-weather machine into an all-condition workhorse.

Superior Traction

Power to all four wheels means dramatically better grip - the loader digs in and pushes through instead of spinning its tires and going nowhere.

Never Get Stuck

In mud, soft soil, sand or loose gravel, if the front wheels lose grip the rear wheels keep driving - the loader pulls itself through conditions that stop a 2WD machine.

Higher Pushing & Digging Force

4WD transmits more of the engine's power to the ground as useful breakout force - the bucket penetrates compacted material that a 2WD loader cannot dig into.

Better Hill-Climbing & Stability

All-wheel-drive distributes torque evenly, improving gradeability (28°) and stability on slopes - essential for ramp loading and stockpile work.

Reduced Tire Slippage & Wear

Less wheel spin means less tire scuffing and longer tire life - lower operating cost per hour over the machine's lifetime.

Four-Wheel Drive vs Two-Wheel Drive Loader

Why 4WD is the standard for serious construction, mining and material handling.

Performance Factor	4WD (This Loader) ★	2WD Loader
Driven Wheels	? All 4 wheels	Rear 2 only
Traction in Mud	? Excellent	Poor - spins out
Soft Ground / Sand	? Keeps moving	Gets stuck
Breakout Force	145 kN (full grip)	~110 kN (slip-limited)
Hill Climbing	? 28° gradeable	~20° limited
Stockpile Penetration	? Digs in hard	Struggles
Tire Wear	? Reduced slippage	Higher spin wear
Wet / Rainy Conditions	? Productive	Shut down
Best For	Construction, mines, ports	Paved yards only

★ 4WD adds minimal upfront cost but dramatically expands the range of jobsites and conditions where the loader stays productive.

The 162kW Weichai - Industry-Standard Power

The most widely deployed 5-ton loader engine in the world - proven, supported, fuel-efficient.

Turbocharged & Intercooled

Weichai WD10G220E23 - 6-cylinder, water-cooled, direct-injection diesel. Turbo + air-to-air intercooler delivers dense charge air for strong, consistent power output.

Strong Cold-Start Performance

Proven reliable cold-start down to -15°C (with optional preheater to -30°C). The engine fires up and goes to work in winter conditions where lesser engines refuse to start.

8-12% Lower Fuel Consumption

Optimized combustion plus high torque backup means the engine spends more time in its efficient operating band - 8 to 12% lower fuel burn versus older naturally-aspirated designs.

High Torque Backup

745.3 N·m peak torque with high torque rise - the engine holds RPM under sudden load spikes (digging into hard material) instead of bogging down.

Global Parts Availability

Weichai is the most widely supported 5-ton loader engine worldwide - filters, injectors, pistons and major components available in every mining and construction region.

Trusted by Operators Worldwide

Real feedback from 4WD ZL50 owners across regions and industries.

"The 4WD is the reason we bought this loader. Our site gets muddy after rain and our old 2WD machine was useless for days. This ZL50 keeps working - the 162kW Weichai has plenty of power and fuel consumption is genuinely lower than expected."

José R.

Construction Co., Brazil

"Best value 5-ton 4WD loader we could find. The four-wheel-drive gets us through the sandy stretches at our port yard where 2WD machines bog down. Factory-direct price was unbeatable. Spare parts arrive within 10 days."

Sergey K.

Logistics Director, Russia

"We load onto trucks from a soft-ground stockpile. The 4WD traction means the bucket digs in instead of pushing the loader backward. 145 kN breakout force handles our hardest gravel. Weichai engine starts every cold morning without complaint."

Ahmed M.

Quarry Manager, Egypt

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions from international buyers.

Q: What are the advantages of 4WD on a wheel loader?

A: 4WD (four-wheel drive) delivers power to all four wheels instead of only two, providing five key advantages: (1) superior traction - the loader grips instead of spinning; (2) never getting stuck in mud, sand, loose gravel or soft ground - if the front wheels lose grip the rear wheels keep driving; (3) higher pushing and breakout force - more engine power reaches the ground as useful work; (4) better hill-climbing and stability on slopes (28° gradeable); (5) reduced tire slippage and wear, lowering operating cost. For any jobsite with unpredictable underfoot conditions - construction, mining, ports, agriculture - 4WD is the difference between productive and shut down.

Q: What engine does this ZL50 loader use?

A: The loader is powered by a Weichai WD10G220E23 turbocharged intercooled diesel engine rated at 162 kW (217 hp) at 2,000 rpm with maximum torque of 745.3 N·m. Weichai is the industry-standard engine for 5-ton class loaders worldwide, offering strong cold-start performance (down to -15°C, or -30°C with optional preheater), 8-12% lower fuel consumption versus older designs, high torque backup for sudden loads, and widely available spare parts in every mining and construction region.

Q: What is the warranty and lead time?

A: Standard warranty is 12 months or 2,000 working hours, whichever comes first, covering major components including engine, transmission, hydraulic pump, drive axle and 4WD system. Lead time is 20-35 days for stock configurations and 35-50 days for customized builds. Extended warranty options available.

Q: What is the MOQ and can I customize?

A: MOQ is 1 unit. Custom bucket capacity from 2.5 to 4.5 m³, plus wooden forks, pallet forks, grapples, snow blades and quick couplers. Engine and transmission options also available. We also offer OEM/ODM service with custom paint, decals and specifications.

Q: What payment terms and shipping methods are supported?

A: Payment: T/T (30% deposit, 70% before shipment) or L/C at sight. Shipping: Ro-Ro, bulk vessel or container (CKD/SKD packing). FOB Xiamen or CIF/CFR to your destination port. We handle all export documentation including CE and ISO certificates for customs clearance.

Q: Do you provide after-sales service and spare parts?

A: Yes. A full spare parts list ships with each machine, and we maintain overseas agents in multiple regions for local service. Online technical support within 24 hours; engineers can be dispatched overseas for installation and major repairs. Weichai engine parts are available globally through the Weichai service network.
