Versatile solutions for vehicle bodywork
AL-KO VT chassis as a base for customised commercial vehicle bodies
AL-KO VT chassis are a functional and versatile foundation for a wide range of body types. Platform vehicles are just as possible as sales vehicles or horseboxes. As a result, we offer robust, practical solutions for vehicle manufacturing across industries. AL-KO Vehicle Technology is notable for superior driving comfort and makes a key contribution to safety.
These advantages AL-KO VT offers for vehicle bodybuilding
AL-KO VT chassis provide a flexibly configurable base for different commercial vehicle bodies and application areas. Within the available chassis variants, wheelbase, frame length, and overhang can be matched to the planned body and individual requirements. This creates the ideal conditions for various vehicle concepts – such as for use in trades, the transportation of food, or horse transport.
The planning and realisation of the actual vehicle body is carried out by qualified body manufacturers. Which base vehicles, axle configurations, dimensions, and permissible gross weights are available for a project must be checked based on the respective vehicle and chassis configuration.
The low-frame chassis allow a low loading edge, contributing to greater comfort when loading and unloading. With an AL-KO VT base, you can tailor the vehicle body using a wide range of accessories, according to individual requirements. Serviceability is maintained over the long term. Thanks to the low intrinsic weight of the frame construction, fuel consumption is lower compared to many original chassis. The AL-KO VT chassis for vehicle bodywork feature a hot-dip galvanised construction that offers reliable and permanent corrosion protection.
- Base for bodies such as horseboxes, refrigerated vans, platform vehicles and sales vehicles by qualified body manufacturers
- The hot-dip galvanised frame construction provides long-lasting corrosion protection
- The chassis form the basis for a long service life and are maintenance-friendly
- Extended load areas are possible (ideal for vehicle transporters)
- The low weight of the lightweight construction reduces fuel consumption
As base vehicles for transporter bodies with AL-KO VT chassis, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer, Citroën Jumper and Opel Movano can be used, among others. Key innovations in vehicle technology such as ESP are still fully supported by AL-KO VT. Our engineers match the ESP precisely to each chassis and subject it to thorough testing. 2- and 3-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 version and up to 5,500 kg for the three-axle version are possible, depending on the model.
Below you will find some body solutions for various industries and fields of application.
