In March 2026, Komatsu introduced the HM460-6 articulated haul truck, a next-generation articulated dump built for quarry, construction, large-scale site development, mining, and infrastructure operations where variable terrain, soft ground, and haul road conditions limit productivity. With a higher-rated payload and improved fuel efficiency compared to the Komatsu HM400-5 (which this new model replaces), the truck is designed to deliver a lower cost per ton while maintaining stable, predictable operation throughout the haul cycle.
“In engineering the HM460-6, the focus is on delivering confident performance in real-world conditions where traction, torque and control make the difference – with extra payload,” said Bruce Boebel, Director, Products and Service. “The new DBA127 engine and advanced traction systems were designed to help operators stay productive on challenging and versatile terrain, while the redesigned cab and service features reflect how closely we listened to customer feedback.”
