The following video showcases a Liebherr T 264 mining truck being assembled in a time-lapse fashion.

The T 264 is a fuel-efficient truck built for safety and reliability. Based on the previously engineered Liebherr T 262 and T 282 series haul trucks, this mammoth vehicle boasts the highest horsepower engine option in its size class. Higher efficiency and productivity are achieved by Liebherr’s Litronic Plus AC drive system.
