When it comes to heavy linehaul and high-GCM transport tasks in Australia, operators demand more than just horsepower. They want reliability, safety, driver comfort, low running costs, and a drivetrain capable of handling Australia’s toughest routes and payloads day in, day out. The SITRAK C9H 6×4 Prime Mover, available through BCI Truck, has been engineered with exactly these requirements in mind.

Serious Power for Serious Work

At the heart of the SITRAK C9H is the WP15H660E62A 15.3-litre engine, delivering an impressive 660 horsepower and 3,200Nm of torque. This powerplant is designed for high-productivity applications, making it well suited to B-double, road train and heavy linehaul operations, with a Gross Combination Mass (GCM) rating of up to 90 tonnes.

For Australian operators, this means confident pulling power across long distances, strong hill-climbing capability, and reduced engine strain under heavy loads — all contributing to improved durability and long-term reliability.

Drivetrain Designed for Efficiency and Control

The C9H pairs its high-output engine with a 12-speed ZF Automated Manual Transmission (AMT). This proven transmission delivers smooth gear changes, optimised fuel efficiency, and reduced driver fatigue — a key consideration for fleets focused on productivity and driver retention.

Additional drivetrain features such as inter-axle and inter-wheel differential locks ensure traction is maintained when conditions deteriorate, whether on steep grades, unsealed roads, or wet worksites.

Built for Safety on Australian Roads

Safety is no longer optional — it’s an expectation. The SITRAK C9H is equipped with a comprehensive suite of advanced driver assistance systems, including:

• Electronic Braking System (EBS)

• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

• Advanced Emergency Braking (AEBS)

• Hill Assist System (HAS)

• Forward Collision Warning System (FCWS)

• WABCO radar technology

• 360-degree surround view camera system

These features provide operators with greater situational awareness, improved stopping performance, and added confidence in busy freight corridors and regional routes across Australia.

Operator Comfort: Built for Long Haul Productivity

From an operator’s perspective, driver comfort directly impacts safety, efficiency, and staff retention. The C9H cab has been designed for long-distance comfort, featuring an ergonomic layout, clear LCD colour display, refined noise insulation, and a driving position that reduces fatigue over extended shifts.

A comfortable driver is a safer, more productive driver — something Australian fleets increasingly prioritise.

Lightweight Where It Matters

To maximise payload and operating efficiency, the C9H incorporates alloy rims and alloy air tanks, helping to reduce tare weight without compromising strength or durability. This focus on smart weight reduction allows operators to carry more while staying compliant — a critical advantage in competitive freight environments.

Flexible Configurations for Australian Applications

No two operations are the same. That’s why the SITRAK C9H offers flexible configuration options to suit a wide range of transport tasks, from interstate linehaul to heavy fleet applications. With proven components such as the JOST fifth wheel, Bosch steering systems, and WABCO braking controls, the C9H is designed to integrate seamlessly into Australian fleets.
