Product Overview
The YTK90E is a rigid-frame hauler whose 60 t payload and rated gross mass are engineered for ramp grades and cycle times found in open-pit coal and quarry duty, not road transport.

Electric Mining Truck Applications
This battery-electric mining truck is deployed in open-pit mines and quarries transitioning to low-emission fleet operations, where it runs on fixed haul circuits with regular charging, battery-swap or range-extender top-ups. It suits aggregate yards, mine waste dumping, and large infrastructure earthwork where diesel exhaust and noise must be controlled.
Electric variants make the most of high-gradient, stop-start cycles: regenerative braking recovers energy on loaded descents and returns it to the battery on the climb. The FOPS/ROPS cabin keeps the operator comfortable across long shifts in high-dust environments.
Yutong supplies this 60 ton electric dump truck with global export support and after-sales parts, serving mines, quarries and construction contractors across Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.
Technical Highlights of the YTK90E
The YTK90E uses a Yutong self-made vehicle controller, a highly integrated coaxial drive motor and a lithium iron phosphate energy-storage system (electric/hybrid models) chosen for mining duty cycles, thermal stability and long calendar life. A U-shaped earthmoving body improves load retention and lowers centre of gravity.
A rigid frame, three-speed automatic transmission and maintenance-free balance suspension reduce downtime, while the high-voltage fast-charging or battery-swap architecture keeps utilisation high. Regenerative braking recovers roughly 60% more energy than the industry average.
How to Choose the Right Mining Dump Truck
Choose the powertrain to match your infrastructure: pure-electric fast-charge models suit mines with grid access and short cycles; battery-swap models maximise utilisation on 24/7 fleets; range-extended models remove range anxiety at remote sites; and diesel/hybrid models suit mines without charging infrastructure. Confirm the rated load of 60 t against your shovel pass count before ordering.
As a leading battery mining truck manufacturer, Yutong offers configurations — bucket or body options, tyre packages, cab choices and power options — so the machine matches your exact duty cycle rather than a generic spec.

About the YTK90E
The YTK90E is a mining-class truck rated for 60 t of payload on the rated gross mass, engineered for the haul roads and loading equipment of a production mine. Yutong matches the body, driveline and brakes to the rated load so the truck holds speed on grade and stops predictably in wet conditions.
The frame is built for haul-road fatigue, the body is lined for the material it carries, and the retarder and braking system are sized for continuous downhill work. Every unit is load-tested on the proving ground, and the load and brake charts are documented before delivery.
Choosing the YTK90E comes down to pit depth, haul-road grade and the loader fleet in use. Yutong confirms payload, body volume and retarding specification from your mine plan, and the global service network covers spares, operator training and field support.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the rated load of the YTK90E?
The YTK90E carries a rated payload of 60 t. Full battery capacity, motor power, body volume and chassis configuration are listed in the technical parameters table.
How is the YTK90E charged or refuelled?
It uses high-power DC fast charging and is also offered as a battery-swap variant depending on fleet strategy.
Is the YTK90E suitable for open-pit mines?
Yes. It is purpose-designed for open-pit haul roads, graded for steep ramps and fitted with a mining-grade body and suspension for abrasive conditions.
What are the environmental benefits?
Electric and hybrid variants cut local emissions, reduce noise and lower energy cost per tonne-km; regenerative braking recovers energy that a diesel truck would waste.
What battery chemistry is used?
Electric models use lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) mining packs, selected for thermal safety, cycle life and stable performance in extreme mine temperatures.
Can Yutong supply charging or swap infrastructure?
Yes. Yutong can package the truck together with fast-charging or battery-swap station design; request a fleet-level proposal through the inquiry form.
What is the lead time and warranty?
Lead time and warranty depend on configuration; contact Yutong with your fleet size and duty cycle for a firm quotation.
