Main introduction of Dongfeng GX 4×2 tractor
Recently, Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle has unveiled its latest flagship tractor, the GX, which positions itself as the leading model in Dongfeng’s lineup, surpassing the KX, KL, VL, and other models. So, what makes the new generation domestically-produced flagship GX stand out? Let’s uncover its mysterious features.
Subtle Exterior Changes with Enhanced Configuration:
In recent years, the exterior design of trucks has become increasingly important, as younger truck enthusiasts have certain aesthetic expectations. As the flagship model leading Dongfeng’s lineup, the GX naturally cannot fall short in terms of appearance. Additionally, it needs to establish its product strength in comparison to competitors.

Before the introduction of the GX, the flagship KX was Dongfeng’s flagship product. Although the GX is now a more high-end model, its exterior design remains largely unchanged, heavily borrowing from the design of the flagship KX. The most significant change to the front fascia is the grille, which now matches the body color instead of featuring contrasting colors. This monochromatic design gives the vehicle a more refined and delicate look.
The overall exterior changes in the GX are not prominent, as seen in the real-life images. The side mirrors, previously black in the KX model, have been replaced with body-colored painted mirrors. Rather than significant exterior changes, the GX focuses on upgrading the details of the KX model, aiming to make the GX even more perfect. The side of the vehicle features a dragon pattern, known as “Canglongqing,” which will also appear in the paint finish of the GX in the future.

In terms of headlights, the GX model adopts xenon light sources with dual lenses. In our actual experience, this lighting configuration provides stable and bright illumination under most weather conditions. The GX model also features LED turn signals and daytime running lights. When the turn signal is used, the light strip produces a popular “flowing” effect. Overall, the GX model stands out in terms of its lighting configuration.
Similar to the KX, the real-life GX model is equipped with a 360-degree surround-view camera system. This configuration undoubtedly makes it easier for truck drivers to navigate narrow and crowded cargo yards, reducing the chances of collisions.

Furthermore, the GX model incorporates a new feature called blind spot detection. When the driver activates the left or right turn signal, the corresponding camera on that side will be activated, and real-time footage will be transmitted to the central screen, reducing blind spots and enhancing safety.
In addition, the GX model comes standard with keyless entry and keyless start, further enhancing the convenience of the driving experience. As long as the driver has the key on them, they can perform a series of actions such as getting in the vehicle and starting it without taking out the key, greatly increasing the convenience of vehicle usage.
The dimensions of the real-life GX model are also impressive, with a length, width, and height of 6560mm, 2550mm, and 3960mm, respectively. With a wheelbase of 4000mm, the GX, equipped with a high-roof cabin, reaches nearly 4 meters in height, and the flat-floor structure allows for a cabin height of nearly 2 meters, making it easy for even tall drivers to stand comfortably.
Keen-eyed truck enthusiasts may have noticed that thanks to the excellent space utilization, there is a significant remaining space behind the vehicle’s fuel tank, enough to accommodate a person standing inside. Upon on-site confirmation, we learned that this design allows for a larger fuel tank capacity, showcasing Dongfeng’s commitment to quality.
