The World’s Largest Dump Truck: BELAZ 75710 Unveiled
Welcome to Vanagas Extreme Machines, where we bring you the biggest and most incredible machines from around the world. And today, we have something truly impressive to showcase – the world’s largest dump truck, BELAZ 75710.
With a base price starting at $7 million, this monster truck is not only one of the most expensive machines in the world but also one of the rarest, with only three in existence. But what makes this truck so impressive is not just its price tag or its rarity, but its sheer size and capabilities.
With a loading capacity of 450 tons, the BELAZ 75710 can even be overloaded with an additional 50 tons, making it a Guinness World Record holder for the largest dump truck in the world. And that’s not all – this massive machine also holds another Guinness World Record for being the largest car in cubic capacity, with a total volume of 645m3.
At 20 meters long, 10 meters wide, and over 8 meters high, this truck is so enormous that if you stood on top of it, you’d be as high as the 4th or 5th floor of an apartment building. And when fully loaded, this truck weighs a staggering 850 tons – equivalent to two Airbus A380 passenger airplanes.
But what’s even more impressive than its size is its power. The BELAZ 75710 is equipped with two 16-cylinder engines, each producing 2300 horsepower, for a combined total of 4660 horsepower. These engines are so massive that each one has a volume of 76 liters, making the total engine cubic capacity a mind-boggling 152 liters.
And the torque? Nearly 10,000 Nm. That’s 20 times more than your average mid-range car engine. And with two generators producing 3.5 thousand kW of electricity, this truck could easily power a small town with its own energy supply.
But what truly sets the BELAZ 75710 apart is its electric powertrain. With four electric motors powering its four wheels, this truck is not only the largest but also the most eco-friendly dump truck in the world.
So, there you have it – the world’s largest dump truck, BELAZ 75710. A true engineering marvel, this machine is a testament to human ingenuity, power, and capability. And if you’re a fan of extreme machines, this is one vehicle you won’t want to miss.
