HOWO Custom Upgrades Explained

One of the biggest advantages of choosing HOWO trucks is their flexibility. Whether you’re operating in Africa, Southeast Asia, or the Middle East, HOWO offers multiple customization options to match local road conditions and business requirements. Among the most requested upgrades are right-hand drive conversions and reinforced suspension systems — both essential for specialized transport needs.

1. Right-Hand Drive (RHD) Conversion

In many countries, especially in Africa and Southeast Asia, right-hand drive trucks are a legal requirement. HOWO provides factory-supported RHD customization, ensuring that steering components, dashboards, and wiring are safely and professionally reconfigured.

This process is not a simple mirror change — it involves full re-engineering of the steering system, ensuring smooth handling and long-term reliability. As a result, HOWO RHD trucks perform just as efficiently and safely as their standard left-hand drive versions.

Key benefit: Compliance with regional driving laws while maintaining factory-level performance and safety.

2. Reinforced Suspension Systems

For mining, construction, and off-road environments, trucks face rough terrains and heavy payloads. HOWO’s reinforced suspension upgrade includes thicker leaf springs, stronger axles, and heavy-duty shock absorbers, designed to carry extra weight and reduce frame stress.

This upgrade greatly improves vehicle stability, especially on uneven or muddy roads, while extending the truck’s overall lifespan. It’s one of the most popular choices among African customers transporting sand, gravel, and mining materials.

Key benefit: Greater load capacity and durability for demanding work conditions.

3. Other Available Upgrades

Beyond these two major modifications, HOWO trucks can also be customized with:

Enhanced air filters and cooling systems for dusty environments.

Fuel tank expansion for long-distance transport.

Heavy-duty bumpers and protection plates for construction zones.

Upgraded lighting systems for night operations.

These upgrades make HOWO trucks suitable for a wide variety of business needs — from logistics and construction to mining and road projects.

The ability to customize HOWO trucks — from steering configuration to suspension strength — is a key reason for their success in international markets. Whether your business requires right-hand drive conversions or reinforced suspension for heavy-duty work, HOWO provides reliable solutions built to last.

In short: Whatever the road or task, HOWO can be tailored to fit your operation perfectly.
