Recently, 142 Ankai buses equipped with Yuchai YC6MK engines were delivered to Saudi Arabian clients and deployed for the 2026 Saudi Hajj transportation support mission.

As Yuchai's proven 10L-class power platform, the YC6MK engine adopts high-efficiency combustion and thermal management technologies. It features robust power, exceptional durability and low fuel consumption. Even under extreme high temperatures in the Middle East, it maintains stable power output and fully meets the demands of heavy-load operation.
