Amphibious emergency rescue vehicles play a crucial role in projects aimed at enhancing natural disaster response capabilities.

The WX-(8x8) amphibious vehicle developed and manufactured by Hebei Five-Star Power Equipment Co., Ltd. combines the dual capabilities of both a car and a boat. This all-terrain amphibious flood rescue vehicle can travel on land like a car and navigate on water like a boat. When operating on land, it can carry 4-6 people at speeds of 40-55 km/h. On water, it can reach speeds of 5-12 km/h. During disasters that disrupt transportation, the WX-(8x8) amphibious vehicle can maneuver through streets and alleys, providing emergency firefighting, disaster relief, and material transport. It offers high efficiency and top-tier extreme terrain performance while carrying all necessary equipment for emergency and fire rescue operations. Optional rubber tracks provide optimal traction on soft ground or snow. It enables rapid deployment for flood control, emergency response, disaster relief, and firefighting, overcoming various terrains to transport personnel and equipment to and from disaster sites.

The standout feature of the WX-(8x8) amphibious vehicle is its excellent performance in extremely harsh conditions and superior water-crossing ability. When deployed in rescue operations, fire scenes, or patrol and reconnaissance missions, it offers substantial load and towing capacity. Tracks used on soft terrain, desert, or snow provide enhanced traction.

I. Unique Advantages of the WX-(8x8) Amphibious Vehicle:

(1) Powered by a 4-stroke OHV V-Twin air-cooled 747cc, 23 HP (16 kW) electronic fuel injection engine.

(2) Equipped with an efficient BSWB safety start device to prevent operational errors.

(3) The vehicle features an LCOF high-protection design to ensure occupant safety. Standard configurations include: 1) front bumper, 2) automatic drainage, 3) hull bottom guard plate, 4) imperial hex key set, 5) USB port, 6) 12V power interface.

(4) The vehicle’s HE-based control system requires a complete set of SOTA lightweight and flexible simulation operating devices. It supports DM operation for improved efficiency and flexibility.

(5) The OBD "6+1" engine fault self-diagnosis system enhances operational safety. After turning the key to the first position three times consecutively, the integrated dashboard flashes six times, pauses for one second, and flashes once more to complete the engine check, indicating normal operation.

(6) Vehicle components use TS sealed design to ensure long-term safety and performance.

(7) The transmission employs a PANETARY differential system, featuring compact structure, high transmission efficiency, low inter-tooth load, high structural rigidity, and ease of power shifting.
