A few examples of Dumpers having large capacity of carrying load

The Belaz 75710, with a capacity of 496 tons, is the biggest dumper truck in the
world. This model was development by the Belarusian company's engineers with the
aim of having a suitable load for a Russian mining company.
At 20.6m in length, with a height of 8.16m and 9.87m width, it has a weight of 360
tons and is shod with eight super-sized Michelin tyres. A diesel engine with a turbo-
compresser of 16 cylinders powers it, pumping out 2,332bhp and topping out at a
heady 64kph.
