The GH7 delivers 245 hp. The recorded build year is 2012.
Engines of this power class at UD Trucks mainly drive medium to heavy trucks in distribution and construction-site transport, where rugged engineering and secured spare-parts supply through the authorised dealer matter more than absolute peak output. UD Trucks has traditionally positioned its vehicles especially strongly in Asia, Africa and Australia.
When buying a UD Trucks engine of this build year used, check the service history of the injection system and turbocharger, the condition of the cooling system, and the function of the exhaust aftertreatment according to the relevant emission tier. Since UD Trucks has a smaller dealer network in Europe than in Asia, it is also worth checking local spare-parts availability before buying. It also matters whether the previous owner ran the vehicle in long-haul transport or on construction sites, since oil-change intervals and wear on the clutch and gearbox differ markedly between these duty profiles. A look through the service book for regular maintenance at an authorised dealer further shows whether the key intervals were actually kept.
