Foton Auman EST 430 hp Tractor for Kiribati: One Sheet, Six Countries

Writer:Alan Chen(Foton Auman dealer)

Kiribati appears on exactly one sheet in this catalogue of two hundred and twenty-eight. It is not alone there: the same line carries Zimbabwe, Mozambique, the Solomon Islands, Tanzania and Zambia, and the line above it names Thailand as the country of sale. One country out of six on one sheet — that is the whole of what “Kiribati” means in this catalogue, and reading it properly means reading the sheet it sits on next to the two sheets that carry the same engine, the same cab and the same wheelbase.

The three sheets that share this driveline

All three are Auman EST tractor units. All three carry the Foton Cummins ISGe3-430, 11,800 ml, 2,000 N·m at 1,000 rpm, right-hand drive, an 11-tyre layout, a 450-litre aluminium tank, a 6,950 mm chassis length and the 3,300 + 1,350 mm wheelbase. What separates them is axle count, axle capacity and the country line.

What the Kiribati line actually says

Coverage countries on id 103

Kiribati / Zimbabwe / Mozambique / Solomon Islands / Tanzania / Zambia.

Country of sale on id 103

Thailand.

Coverage countries on id 142

Malaysia, Guyana — also its country of sale.

Coverage countries on id 223

Pakistan / Malaysia / Brunei Darussalam / Uganda, with Malaysia as the country of sale.

Six names on one line, four on another, two on the third. Kiribati is the only Pacific island on any of the three; its companion on the same line, the Solomon Islands, is the only other one. Everything else on these sheets is African or Asian. If you are buying for Kiribati you are buying id 103, and you are buying it on a sheet whose country of sale is Thailand.

ISGe3-430, Euro III, ZF-12AMT, 55 t GCW, 3.083 final drive, 6,950 × 2,490 × 3,840 mm chassis.

Where the two siblings beat it, and where it beats them

id 223 — 90,000 kg GCWUSD 49,000

6×4, 7.5 T front, 16 T rear, 3.86 ratio

id 103 — 55,000 kg GCWUSD 48,000

6×4, 6.5 T front, 13 T rear, 3.083 ratio, the Kiribati sheet

id 142 — 55,000 kg GCWUSD 53,624

6×2R, 6.5 T front, 13 T rear, 3.083 ratio

The Kiribati sheet is the cheapest of the three and the second-weakest on paper. id 223 gives you 35,000 kg more GCW, a tonne more front axle and three tonnes more rear axle for USD 1,000 more. What id 103 gives you instead is the coverage line — and that is the only thing on the sheet that id 223 does not have. The third sheet, id 142, sits USD 5,624 above it for the same 55,000 kg.

The contradiction on id 142, for the record

One sheet, two tonnages

id 142 publishes a GCW of 55,000 kg and a tonnage line of 50T. The two do not agree. No third field on that sheet resolves it, so ask which figure is on the order before you compare it with the other two.

What none of the three publishes

Kerb weight — All three publish a 25,000 kg GVW and a GCW, and none publishes what the tractor itself weighs, so the difference between the two cannot be checked from the sheet.

Emission route — All three leave it blank. The standard reads Euro III on each.

A payload — These are tractor units; the load sits in the semi-trailer, and no sheet here describes one.

Anything about Kiribati beyond the country name — No port, no delivery term, no configuration note — the country appears once, in one list of six.

Three sheets, three country lines, one of which contains Kiribati. Sales country and coverage country are read here as the same kind of market signal, which is why a sheet whose country of sale is Thailand still counts as the Kiribati sheet. Nothing on this page quotes an import rule, a registration requirement or a port procedure, because no specification sheet in this group does.
