Versatile solutions for commercial vehicle bodies
AL-KO VT chassis as a base for customised commercial vehicle bodies
AL-KO VT chassis are a functional and versatile base for a wide range of body types. They can be used as a base for platform vehicles, sales vehicles and horse transporters, ensuring robust, practical solutions for vehicle construction across a wide range of industries. AL-KO VT chassis offer a high level of driving comfort and make an important contribution to safety.
Benefits of AL-KO VT chassis for commercial vehicle bodies
AL-KO VT chassis provide a flexibly configurable base for different commercial vehicle bodies and areas of application. Within the available chassis variants, wheelbase, frame length, and overhang can be matched to the relevant body and individual requirements, allowing for various vehicle concepts, for example for the trades, food transport or horse transport.
Qualified body manufacturers are responsible for planning and building the actual vehicle body. The base vehicles, axle configurations, dimensions and permissible gross weights available for a project must be checked for the relevant vehicle and chassis configuration.
The low-frame chassis provide a low loading edge, making loading and unloading more convenient. With an AL-KO VT base, you can tailor the vehicle body using a wide range of accessories and equipment to suit individual requirements. The chassis remain service-friendly over the long term. Thanks to the low weight of the frame construction, fuel consumption is lower than with many standard chassis.The AL-KO VT chassis for commercial vehicle bodies feature a hot-dip galvanised construction that provides reliable and long-lasting corrosion protection.
- Base for bodies such as horse transporters, refrigerated boxes, platform vehicles and sales vehicles, built by qualified body manufacturers
- The hot-dip galvanised frame construction provides long-lasting corrosion protection
- The chassis are low-maintenance and designed for a long service life
- Extended loading areas are possible (ideal for vehicle transporters)
- The low weight of the frame construction reduces fuel consumption
Base vehicles for commercial vehicle bodies with AL-KO VT chassis include Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer, Citroën Jumper and Opel Movano. Key vehicle technologies such as ESP remain fully supported with AL-KO VT. Our engineers adapt the ESP precisely to each chassis and subject it to thorough testing. Two- and three-axle frame constructions are available as chassis variants. For the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, permissible gross weights of up to 4,500 kg for the two-axle model and up to 5,500 kg for the three-axle model are possible, depending on the model.
Below you will find body solutions for various industries and fields of application.
