Offroad axle suspension systems from AL-KO VT
To tame even the most adventurous routes, you need suspension systems that neutralise even the harshest pothole sections, reliably protecting the superstructures entrusted to them. With the axle suspension systems in the Enduro range, AL-KO VT offers the right equipment for offroad experts.
Offroad is – almost – everywhere
The adventure is often just a few metres away
Those gliding along well-surfaced roads towards a pre-booked pitch in a holiday paradise often overlook one fact: most of the Earth's solid surface is untamed terrain. Even the longest ribbons of tarmac come to an end, and just a few metres to the left or right of the route, the offroad adventure is usually waiting.
Equipment for professional cross-country drivers
Truly at home in the roughest conditions
Professionals who earn their living mostly away from civilised roads simply don’t have a choice. Forestry teams and foresters, disaster relief and technical services, water rescue and the Red Cross, gamekeepers or shepherds – they all go where they are needed, and so does their equipment, which must follow them into the remotest regions. Ground clearance and uncompromising robustness of the axle suspension are the key topics here.
Perfect match for the offroad towing vehicle
A lot is invested in the offroad capability of towing vehicles. VW Amarok, Nissan Navara or Ford Ranger are also increasingly popular choices among offroad novices; all-wheel drive is already standard from a certain vehicle class upwards. “Of course, the passengers want the ride to be as comfortable as possible,” says Product Manager Mircan Ünsal of AL-KO VT. “But what use is the most offroad-capable and comfortable towing vehicle if the towed unit with its valuable bodywork bottoms out at the first deep bump and the bodywork gets damaged?”
Axle investment in the superstructure
Whether it’s a sensible mobile sleeping space for occasional wild campers, the diesel generator with a floodlight or the field kitchen for disaster areas: with the right axle suspension system, the trailer superstructure will last longer and retain its value. The axle system itself will also go the distance if it’s specifically designed to tame rugged terrains. Without question, these axle systems include the Enduro X system from AL-KO VT. This suspension system, designed primarily for professional applications, is lightweight, fitted with high-performance shock absorbers and is resistant to rust and stone chipping.
The Enduro X system was developed by AL-KO colleagues in Australia for the Outback. Grant Douglas, Managing Director of AL-KO Australia: “Off the beaten track, you can experience truly unique nature here. A fully offroad-capable axle system ensures unspoilt pleasure for at least two reasons: driving conditions in the Outback far exceed the capabilities of normal road-worthy systems. Plus, the often vast distances make any breakdown a real risk.” The Enduro X systems are more than equal to these demands.
Spring as the central component
As robust as coiled steel
The central component of the Enduro X is the steel coil spring. It is the icon of robustness: it absorbs practically any impact and shock load. It shrugs off dust, mud or gravel without a second thought. And if it ever needs replacing, it’s easy to do.
Enduro for road use
No matter what kind of body or superstructure you want to tow behind you through difficult terrain, with Enduro X AL-KO VT axle systems, you protect your caravan body and equipment, and driving is much more enjoyable in the long run. With these two offroad specialists, your unit will faithfully follow you through thick and thin. And even on the way back to civilisation, the driving performance is impeccable.
This is exactly how Armanc Amac, AL-KO VT Country Manager Turkey, explains the great interest in the two Enduro variants: “Whether professional or keen private individual, both Enduros represent greater freedom on the road. It just feels good to be prepared and not have to shy away from difficult terrain if needed. Even die-hard fair-weather drivers have already experienced bumpy tracks across fields or short stretches over unrestored byways. With a chassis damped by Enduro, you simply take the direct route instead of time-consuming detours. That not only increases satisfaction on the road, but also driving enjoyment.”
