Recently, 142 Ankai buses equipped with Yuchai YC6MK engines were delivered to a Saudi client and deployed to support the 2026 Saudi Hajj transportation service. During the Hajj period, the fleet delivered efficient and reliable power performance, providing solid guarantees for the safe travel of pilgrims.
Hajj transportation operates under severe conditions including extreme high temperatures, heavy workloads and long-hour continuous running, imposing extremely stringent requirements on vehicle power performance, reliability and fuel economy.
As Yuchai's classic and mature 10-liter power platform, the YC6MK engine adopts high-efficiency combustion and thermal management technologies. It delivers strong power, stable durability and low fuel consumption. Even amid the high-temperature climate of the Middle East, the engine maintains steady power output to fully satisfy the vehicles' heavy-duty operation demands.
Yuchai has long been deeply engaged in the Middle Eastern market. Thanks to reliable product quality, excellent environmental adaptability and a comprehensive service support system, it has gained recognition from local customers.
A large number of vehicles are still deployed for Saudi Arabia's Hajj services this year, among which buses fitted with Yuchai engines serve as the main force, with a total volume exceeding 10,000 units. Traveling across the vast land of Saudi Arabia, these buses safely deliver wave after wave of pilgrims to their destinations, continuously contributing to Hajj transportation operations.
Going forward, Yuchai will continue to uphold the spirit of innovation, steadily upgrade product performance and service quality, and deliver more reliable and efficient power solutions for Saudi Arabia's public transport and broader overseas transportation demands, further polishing the business card of "Made in China".
