BELAZ assembled a jubilee 90-tonne mining dump truck

The anniversary 90-tonne mining dump truck BELAZ-7558 — chassis No. 500 — was assembled at the Belarusian Automobile Works (BELAZ). The vehicles of this particular series went down in history as the world’s first dump trucks with a carrying capacity of 90 tonnes with alternate current electromechanical transmission, the press service of the plant said.
In 2012, the first prototype of the vehicle was assembled in BELAZ experimental workshop. BELAZ-7558 quickly established itself in practice as reliable equipment that works perfectly in difficult meteorological conditions.Today, the 7558 series dump truck range is represented by ten different modifications while also serving as a platform for new generation vehicles, such as robotic dump trucks and electric dump trucks. The geography of deliveries of 90-tonne dump trucks covers almost the whole world.
